If the pleading is a complaint that includes a request for relief, the pleading must include a statement of the courts jurisdiction over the matter, a statement demonstrating the plaintiffs entitlement to relief, and a specific demand for the type of relief sought, such as monetary compensation.
All pleadings have the same basic structure,[5] starting with the caption at the top of the first page. The caption states the name of the court at the top and, on the right side of the pleading, the type of pleading,[6] the case number (or docket number), and the name of the judge.
When the above provision is analyzed, we get the following general principles: Pleadings should state facts and not law. The facts stated should be material facts. Pleadings should not state the evidence. The facts should be stated in a concise form.
A pleading includes claims and counterclaims but not the evidence by which the litigant intends to prove his case. After both the plaintiff and the defendant have made their initial statements, there may be further pleadings, such as a reply, a rejoinder, and even a surrejoinder.
ABOUT PLEADING PAPER The term pleading paper is often used to describe the format of a document that is filed with the Court when a pre-made form is not available. If there is not a California or Local Court form to fit your situation, you will need to draft your own pleading or motion on pleading paper.
