Pleadings in civil litigation are formal written documents that outline the claims, defenses, and legal arguments of the parties involved in a lawsuit. These documents are filed with the court and serve as the foundation for the legal dispute.

(1) "Pleading" means a petition, complaint, application, objection, answer, response, notice, request for orders, statement of interest, report, or account filed in proceedings under the Family Code. (2) "Amended pleading" means a pleading that completely restates and supersedes the pleading it amends for all purposes.

Pleading Paper Your name must start on line 1. The Court name and location must start on line 8. The caption of the case must start on line 11. You must have a footer with the title of the document. After the caption (the box with the name of the Plaintiff/Respondent) you can use the space as needed, using double spacing.

To start aligning your text, use exact line spacing instead of single or double spacing. The pleading line number spacing is set to exactly 24 pt, so you have to ensure that the side numbering matches the spacing of the text, which should also be set to 24-point spacing.

“Pleading paper” is the term for legal-format paper, with numbers down the side. In situations where there is no pre-printed court form, court paperwork must be submitted on pleading paper.

A pleading must be in writing and must be signed by all persons joining in it. All pleadings filed in proceedings under the Probate Code must be verified. If two or more persons join in a pleading, it may be verified by any of them.

Pleadings usually are presented via a written delivery of the parties. Pleadings may include briefs, attachments, responses and motions. State procedural rules (for instance, see Chapter 7 of California's Code of Civil Procedure) govern the pleading stages within state courts.

In a pleading, the parties formally submit their claims and the defenses against the opposition's claims. The parties can make specific pleas, such as a guilty plea or a not guilty plea.
