In limine means “on or at the threshold; at the very beginning; preliminary.” The purpose of a motion in limine is to obtain a pretrial ruling on evidentiary disputes and to avoid the admission of unduly prejudicial evidence to a jury. State ex rel. Berger v. Superior Ct., 108 Ariz. 396, 499, P.2d 152 (1972). Where a sufficiently specific motion in limine is made and ruled upon on the merits, the objection raised in that motion is preserved for appeal, without the need for specific objection at trial. State v. Burton, 144 Ariz. 248, 697 P.2d 331 (1985).

  • Deduction Limitation means the following described limitation on a benefit that may otherwise be distributable pursuant to the provisions of this Plan. Except as otherwise provided, this limitation shall be applied to all distributions that are "subject to the Deduction Limitation" under this Plan. If an Employer determines in good faith prior to a Change in Control that there is a reasonable likelihood that any compensation paid to a Participant for a taxable year of the Employer would not be deductible by the Employer solely by reason of the limitation under Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Employer to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant pursuant to this Plan prior to the Change in Control is deductible, the Employer may defer all or any portion of a distribution under this Plan. Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 3.6 below, even if such amount is being paid out in installments. The amounts so deferred and amounts credited thereon shall be distributed to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant's death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Employer in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable year of the Employer during which the distribution is made will not be limited by Section 162(m), or if earlier, the effective date of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Deduction Limitation shall not apply to any distributions made after a Change in Control.
