Help with Pro Per ANSWER to a Complaint - Breach of Contract
Re: Using Form PLD-C-010 - Superior Court of California - County of Los Angeles
2. (Page 2 of the ANSWER, #4) If the Plaintiff did not offer me Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) prior to filing his lawsuit, can I use the Affirmative Defense – “Failure to Pursue Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). Plaintiff or the person or entity that assigned the claim to plaintiff failed to request alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”), such as arbitration or mediation, which are required before filing this lawsuit?”
***IF I use the ADR Affirmative Defense, do I need to file a Petition to Compel Arbitration as well? What form # is this?
3. (Page 2 of the ANSWER, #4) – Is it necessary to add Attachment 4 to the ANSWER if I am not using any other Affirmative Defense listed?
