It is a legal procedure whereby the judge is asked via the filing of a legal brief (called a "Motion") to "set aside" a ruling of his own, or another (usually lower) court. It must set forth the full legal reasoning for such a request. The judge will consider the Motion and then issue a ruling on the request.
