The person(s) or entity(ies), usually called either Dependants or Respondents, file answer(s) to a lawsuit. The failure to file an answer within the time allowed by law is deemed to be an admission of the Plaintiff's allegations, resulting in the entry of a "default".
The answer consists of express admissions or denials of the allegations of the complaint, or can consist of a "general denial" of all allegations. It also asserts any affirmative defenses that the defendant(s) may have to the cause of action alleged in the complaint. Under applicable rules of civil procedure, affirmative defenses not raised in the answer are generally deemed to have been waived. However, most courts are fairly lenient in allowing the amendment of an answer to allege overlooked (or newly discovered) affirmative defenses if the Plaintiff is not prejudiced by the amendment.
