“Pleading” has two meanings in lawsuits. “Pleadings” is the term for the essential papers framing a lawsuit — the Complaint and the Answer or other response, and any cross-complaints or amendments to those papers.

There are several types of pleadings in civil litigation. These include complaints, which serve as the basis of the legal action, and answers, which are the responses to the complaints. There may also be counterclaims, crossclaims, and third-party claims, which are also types of pleadings.

Every pleading must have a caption with the court's name, a title, a file number, and a Rule 7(a) designation. The title of the complaint must name all the parties; the title of other pleadings, after naming the first party on each side, may refer generally to other parties.
