Question

In the civil trial process, in response to a complaint the defendant may file with the court an initial pleading, called a(n) _____, wherein the defendant enters a denial by setting out his or her version of the facts and law, or in which the defendant simply concedes the validity of the plaintiff's position.

Answer 1

Answer:

"answer"

Explanation:

According to my research on different law terminology, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the initial pleading being mentioned is called an "answer". This (like mentioned in the question) is when the defendant can either concede the validity of the allegations being made in the plaintiff's accusation or completely deny it. This is usually asked as a direct question by the judge, in which you must answer guilty or not guilty.
