Poole v. White N. See also Bowles v. Gabel W. Subdivision f. This amendment affords a specific method of raising the insufficiency of a defense, a matter which has troubled some courts, although attack has been permitted in one way or another. See Dysart v. Remington-Rand, Inc. McAuley S. Renken E. Turner Milk Co. Stephan Oderwald, Inc. Pennsylvania R. Carroll E. Palmer S. And see Indemnity Ins. Pan American Airways, Inc. Subdivision g.

The addition of the phrase relating to indispensable parties is one of necessity. This amendment conforms to the amendment of Rule 4 e. See also the Advisory Committee's Note to amended Rule 4 b. Subdivision b 7. The terminology of this subdivision is changed to accord with the amendment of Rule Subdivision g has forbidden a defendant who makes a preanswer motion under this rule from making a further motion presenting any defense or objection which was available to him at the time he made the first motion and which he could have included, but did not in fact include therein.
Thus if the defendant moves before answer to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim, he is barred from making a further motion presenting the defense of improper venue, if that defense was available to him when he made his original motion. Amended subdivision g is to the same effect. This required consolidation of defenses and objections in a Rule 12 motion is salutary in that it works against piecemeal consideration of a case.
For exceptions to the requirement of consolidation, see the last clause of subdivision g , referring to new subdivision h 2. The question has arisen whether an omitted defense which cannot be made the basis of a second motion may nevertheless be pleaded in the answer.

Amended subdivision h 1 A eliminates the ambiguity and states that certain specified defenses which were available to a party when he made a preanswer motion, but which he omitted from the motion, are waived.

A party who by motion invites the court to pass upon a threshold defense should bring forward all the specified defenses he then has and thus allow the court to do a reasonably complete job. The waiver reinforces the policy of subdivision g forbidding successive motions. By amended subdivision h 1 B , the specified defenses, even if not waived by the operation of A , are waived by the failure to raise them by a motion under Rule 12 or in the responsive pleading or any amendment thereof to which the party is entitled as a matter of course.
The specified defenses are of such a character that they should not be delayed and brought up for the first time by means of an application to the court to amend the responsive pleading. Since the language of the subdivisions is made clear, the party is put on fair notice of the effect of his actions and omissions and can guard himself against unintended waiver.
