In common law, a crossclaim is a demand made in a pleading that is filed against a party which is on the "same side" of the lawsuit.

The defendant shall answer the amendments, or the complaint as amended, within 30 days after service thereof, or such other time as the court may direct, and judgment by default may be entered upon failure to answer, as in other cases.

(e) (1) In response to a demurrer and prior to the case being at issue, a complaint or cross-complaint shall not be amended more than three times, absent an offer to the trial court as to such additional facts to be pleaded that there is a reasonable possibility the defect can be cured to state a cause of action.

Responsive Pleadings: Cross-Complaint (CA)

An answer may be amended once without leave of court within ten (10) days after the answer was filed, or if there is a demurrer to the answer, amendment without leave of court may be made before the demurrer hearing. Amendment as a matter of right is made by filing and serving the amended pleading.
