Answer 1

The person against whom a lawsuit is brought or who is charged with a violation of the law is called a Defendant.

A lawsuit is an action brought by one or more parties in a civil court of law against another party. Only a limited number of laws from long ago that are still in force include the phrase "suit in law." The term "lawsuit" refers to a civil action in which the plaintiff asks the court for a legal or equitable remedy.

In criminal cases, "The People," or the State acting on behalf of the victim, is often designated as the plaintiff. The person(s) being charged of a crime or violation of a law is/are the defendant.
