A general denial is a legal response that your spouse can file in response to your divorce petition. It means that your spouse is denying all of the allegations you made in your divorce petition, including the grounds for the divorce and any other claims you may have made.
Specific denial is the defendant's denial of specific material facts asserted in the plaintiff's complaint; in other words, a denial of parts of an allegation in a complaint.
Specific denial is when the person being sued says that some of the things the person suing them said are not true. They are only denying certain parts of the claim, not all of it. This is different from a general denial, where they deny everything.
Draft your pleading on legal paper and include your identifying information and a caption that states the involved parties and case number. Draft the body with numbered paragraphs, double spacing, clear headings, and page numbers. Include a certificate of service in your submission.
If the defendant denies all the allegations in a complaint, it is a general denial. On the other hand, it is a specific denial if the defendant does not deny all the allegations but instead either specifically denies designated allegations or generally denies all except the ones specifically admitted.
Special Exceptions (1941) A special exception shall not only point out the particular pleading excepted to, but it shall also point out intelligibly and with particularity the defect, omission, obscurity, duplicity, generality, or other insufficiency in the allegations or the pleading excepted to.
In alleging fraud or mistake, a party must state with particularity the circumstances constituting fraud or mistake. Malice, intent, knowledge, and other conditions of a person's mind may be alleged without setting forth the facts or circumstances from which the condition may be inferred.
The key to drafting a successful pleading is to make sure that you have a clear idea of what the claims are that your client is making and relevant proof for each of those claims. Then you should state the events in a chronological and logical order.
(1) A pleading is any written document filed by a party alleging its claim, its response to a claim, or its request for specific relief or action. (2) All pleadings must be in writing, must be filed as required in §17.3 of this title (relating to Filing of Documents), and must be served on all parties of record.
