You probably need a lawyer, because that it means depends on what the rest of the document says and what it's a response to, but essentially the defendant is saying that the suit is invalid for a bunch of different reasons. At a guess I'd say there's a contract involved, and it seems likely that defense is going to argue that the contract is invalid for one or more of the reasons listed, all of which are technical and have I mentioned "see a lawyer"?

What defenses are available to the defendant?

The defenses are varied. There is the most simple defense of "I didn't do it". From that can flow alibi defenses or lack of proof defenses. The term defense is a bit of a misnomer in that legally the defendant does not have an obligation to prove anything. It is the government's obligation to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. To that end, the defense often brings up issues to raise doubt about the state's case, possibly providing an alternative theory with a different suspect. Then there is the issue of affirmative defenses such as self-defense or entrapment. For further discussion see the related links below.


Which are the defenses under insanity?

There are two common defenses under insanity: the M'Naghten rule and the irresistible impulse test. The M'Naghten rule focuses on whether the defendant understood what they were doing and whether they knew it was wrong. The irresistible impulse test, on the other hand, focuses on whether the defendant can control their actions due to a mental disease or defect. Other jurisdictions may have additional defenses or variations of these two tests.

Waiver of jurisdictional defenses?

I believe this falls under 'change of venue'. A defendant or the prosecution may ask a judge to change the venue or to change the jurisdiction where the case is being prosecuted. This may be the case if a defendant believes he may get a fair trial. A jurisdictional defense is one based on whether the court has jurisdiction over the defendant. For example, if one has to be personally served but was served by some other, unauthorized means, the court may not have jurisdiction over that person. In other words that person has a jurisdictional defense to the action. If however, the person appears in court and does not raise the jurisdiction issue, he/she has waived that defense. Here's how this plays out. A plaintiff claims to have served a defendant with process. Once the defendant does not answer within the time prescribed by law, the plaintiff would then move for a default judgment. The defendant become aware of the default judgment when the plaintiff attempts to execute on it (e.g., restrain his bank account...) The defendant then files a motion/order to show cause asking the court to vacate the default judgment. The plaintiff agrees to vacate the judgment provided the defendant "waives jurisdictional defenses,"i.e. lack of personal service.
