Answer to Question 1

George is the plaintiff in this divorce, so we will file the Complaint/Petition. This will tell the court what the grounds are for the divorce and any relief he is seeking. His spouse must then be served with this document. (Some jurisdictions may require other documents as well. But for the purposes of this question they will not be requiredunless students have already covered state-specific procedures.) His wife then has a statutory period of time to appear and respond, or Answer the allegations in George's Complaint. At this time she can admit or deny his allegations. With her Answer, she may file a Counterclaim or Cross-Complaint to George's original Complaint alleging her own grounds, which may be the same as George's or different. She may even bring special defenses to invalidate George's case.
