Court rules, "local rules," or Rules of the Court are written procedural regulations that govern the administrative operation of the court. The rules include guidelines for various issues such as presentation of briefs and other documents, formatting, filing time limits, costs, and other matters related to litigating cases before a particular court or court system.

The rules are often devised by committee, which may include both legislative and judicial members.

Court rules carry the force of law within the judicial system.

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.
