It's not a "law" to have a legal form to answer a lawsuit in Missouri, at least not in the sense of a statutory law passed by the legislature. But forms are *required* by Court Rules for most types of procedures. If you don't follow the Court Rules for your court, the court may dismiss your case.

Each Circuit Court in Missouri has its own set of Court Rules. You can find them at the related link below. Find the Court Rules for your circuit or county, and read them to see which forms are required for different types of cases.
