Virginia Answer
An answer is a written pleading filed by a defendant to respond to a complaint. An answer generally responds to each allegation in the complaint by denying or admitting it, or admitting in part and denying in part. Some jurisdictions permit a 'general denial,' denying everything. An answer also usually presents affirmative defenses, legal theories intended to defend against the claims in the complaint.

SmartRules Virginia simplifies the rules for complying with codes, rules of court, civil procedure and local court rules, in a single search. SmartRules covers pleadings, timing, format, motion practice, subpoenas, filing and service.
