As a plaintiff, how can I dispose of provable lies made by the defendant before trial? For example, if the complaint states 'Defendant sent an email on 8/1/2015' and the defendant denies this or claims lack of sufficient information, should I use a Motion to Strike or a Motion for Summary Judgment? It seems inefficient to wait for a jury to decide the obvious.

To my knowledge, have I ever had a clearance or access authorization denied? I previously applied for a federal contractor job but never submitted any security questionnaire because the security specialist for the contractor job refused to process it due to a missed deadline. Now, I have a job offer from the federal government. Does the security clearance have any impact on my new job offer?

I worked for a Texas-based company for 3.5 years under an annuity-based commission plan payable on a sliding % scale for 5 years. I was terminated and still have pending commissions owed under the previous compensation plan. The plan was changed to a Total Contract Value commission about 2 years ago, and while my colleague's sales were converted to the new plan, mine were not. Is there a Texas labor law that entitles me to my unpaid commissions under the old plan?
