A respondent is someone who answers to a case in court. This term is commonly used in the civil sense, with a person in a similar position in a criminal case being termed the defendant.
Once the appellate brief is filed, the respondent has a limited amount of time to file a response, in which the respondent argues on behalf of his side of the case and refutes any arguments the petitioner made in her brief. In some courts, the petitioner is allowed to file a short reply after the response is filed.
