What is the Conley case?
The case was Conley vs Gibson decided by the Supreme Court in the 1950s. Black workers had been fired and replaced by whites. The blacks brought a lawsuit against their union claiming the union had done nothing to protect them. A lawsuit is initiated with what are called "pleadings." The union argued the black plaintiff's pleadings were not a complete enough statement of their complaint, so their lawsuit should be thrown out. The requirement for a pleading says it should be a "short and plain statement of the claim." The Court ruled that a thorough explanation of the particulars of a complaint was not required and the blacks pleadings met the requirement, thus ruled in favor of the plaintiff and against the union. NOTE: The current court has modified this ruling tightening the requirement for pleadings.

Can a civil court change the status of plaintiff to be the defendant?
No. Whoever files first is the Plaintiff. If the Defendant then chooses to "cross-sue", the Defendant will still be the defendant on the pleadings even though by virtue thereof, the defendant has launched what is called a counter-claim. In such a scenario, the Defendant will have to defend the Plaintiff's claim, and progress the counter-claim ---- in the same way the plaintiff will need to progress its claim as Plaintiff (and yes, in the same way, the Plaintiff will have to defend the counter-claim launched by the Defendant). By way of additional info, note that the "whoever files first" rule is generally applied to "fix" jurisdiction too. Although the general rule is that the Defendant should be sued in its own jurisdiction, rules modify this basic approach, most often by way of the applicable treaty (e.g. by "special jurisdiction" and "exclusive jurisdiction") and thus by such rules, often the plaintiff is able to sue in its own jurisdiction. Therefore if both potential parties believe they have a claim against the other, where the rules allow for the jurisdiction to be in the plaintiff's own, then it works on a "first come first served basis.
