Content of Answers
An answer to a complaint must contain a clear and concise statement of any disputed
factual allegations and any law upon which the answer relies. Also, an answer
must, to the extent practicable, admit or deny, specifically and in detail, each
material allegation of the pleading answered and set forth every defense relied
on. In addition, an answer must include documents that support the facts in the
answer in possession of, or otherwise attainable by, the respondent, including,
but not limited to contracts and affidavits. An answer is also required to describe
the formal or consensual process it proposes for resolving the complaint. The
procedures for seeking privileged treatment for documents contained in answers
are similar to those described above for documents contained in complaints. (See
Section 385.213(c)(5))
