Question: 1 / 400

The defendant's response to a complaint is called:

An answer

An answer is the defendant's response to a complaint. This includes a rebuttal of the plaintiff's claims and any possible legal defenses. An interrogatory is a formal set of written questions from one party to another, usually this occurs during the discovery process. A deposition on the other hand is a formal, recorded interview with a witness as part of the discovery process. "All of the above" is incorrect because an interrogatory and a deposition are not the defendant's response to a complaint.
