[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Name of Clerk] [Court Name] [Court Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Re: Filing of Cross claim and Affirmative Defenses in [Case Name], Case No. [XXX] Dear [Name of Clerk], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to file a Cross claim and Affirmative Defenses in the above-mentioned case. As a party to this lawsuit, it is my responsibility to protect my rights and assert any claims against the other parties involved. The Virgin Islands Cross claim is a legal tool that allows me, as a defendant, to bring a claim against a co-defendant or a third party who may also be held responsible for the plaintiff's alleged injuries or damages. By asserting this Cross claim, I am seeking to allocate liability among all parties involved and ensure a fair and just resolution to the case. Additionally, I would like to assert certain Affirmative Defenses as part of my legal strategy. Affirmative Defenses are the specific reasons and legal arguments that I believe shield me from liability, even if the plaintiff's allegations are proven true. These defenses aim to rebut the plaintiff's claims and demonstrate that I am not responsible for any alleged injuries or damages. In accordance with the court's rules and procedures, I am enclosing the following documents for the filing of the Cross claim and Affirmative Defenses: 1. Original and [number of copies] copies of the Cross claim, clearly labeled as such. 2. Original and [number of copies] copies of the Affirmative Defenses, clearly labeled as such. 3. [Number of copies] of the proposed Order for the Cross claim and Affirmative Defenses. 4. Proof of service to all other parties involved in the case, as required by the court rules. I kindly request that you acknowledge the receipt of these documents by stamping the date on the provided copies and returning them to me via the enclosed self-addressed stamped envelope. If there are any fees or additional requirements for filing a Cross claim and Affirmative Defenses in this jurisdiction, please provide detailed instructions or inform me at your earliest convenience, and I will promptly comply with the necessary procedures. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Should you require any further information or have any questions regarding the enclosed documents, please do not hesitate to contact me at the phone number or email provided above. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
