FAQ

In most cases, the plaintiff (the party bringing the claim) has the burden of proof. The burden of proof has two components. First, the plaintiff must satisfy the burden of production, which has also been referred to as the burden of going forward.

While the availability of an affirmative defense will depend on the state, there are generally two categories of affirmative defenses, justifications and excuses.

An affirmative defense operates to prevent conviction even when the prosecutor has proof beyond a reasonable doubt as to every element of the crime. Some jurisdictions place the burden on the defendant to prove the defense, while others require that the prosecution disprove the defense beyond a reasonable doubt.

(1) Unless a different time is prescribed in a statute of Florida, a defendant shall serve an answer within 20 days after service of original process and the initial pleading on the defendant, or not later than the date fixed in a notice by publication.

The plaintiff must give you responses to your request for admissions within 30 days. You do not need to do anything if you do not get a response. The plaintiff has 30 days to deny or object to the statements.

The defendant may also raise counterclaims or affirmative defenses. If a defendant does raise counterclaims in her answer, the plaintiff must respond to those counterclaims with a pleading called an "answer to a counterclaim." The form and content of an "answer to a counterclaim" is similar to that of an answer.

Courts have developed a three part test in examining the affirmative defenses subject to a motion to strike: (1) the matter must be properly pleaded as an affirmative defense; (2) the matter must be adequately pleaded under the requirements of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 8 and 9; and (3) the matter must withstand

13 (When pleadings deemed denied and put in issue). Under the codes the pleadings are generally limited. A reply is sometimes required to an affirmative defense in the answer.In other jurisdictions no reply is necessary to an affirmative defense in the answer, but a reply may be ordered by the court.

An affirmative defense operates to prevent conviction even when the prosecutor has proof beyond a reasonable doubt as to every element of the crime. Some jurisdictions place the burden on the defendant to prove the defense, while others require that the prosecution disprove the defense beyond a reasonable doubt.
