How do you open a court case?

Court cases are introduced by the plaintiff, whether it's the government in a criminal case or a plaintiff in a civil case. This side of the case is known as the prosecution, who'll actually bring a case into court. The other side of the court case is the side that answers the charges for which the case is brought into court. This is known as the defense. In either case, the charges are introduced to the clerk's office of the property division of the court in order to commence criminal or civil action.
