Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 2A:15-5

  • Pleadings: Written statements of the parties in a civil case of their positions. In the federal courts, the principal pleadings are the complaint and the answer.
All statutory proceedings begun and conducted before a judge of any court, although not proceedings in the court itself, shall, nevertheless, be entitled in the court, and all writs, pleadings, orders, judgments and other papers therein shall be filed with the clerk and shall be records of his office. The clerk shall make certified copies of any or all of such statutory proceedings when requested, which shall have the same force and effect as certified copies of proceedings in causes in the court.

L.1951 (1st SS), c.344.
