A demurrer is a pleading in a lawsuit that objects to or challenges a pleading filed by an opposing party. The word demur means to object; a demurrer is the document that makes the objection. Lawyers informally define a demurrer as a defendant saying So what? to the pleading. Typically, the defendant in a case will demur to the complaint, but it is also possible for the plaintiff to demur to an answer. The demurrer challenges the legal sufficiency of a cause of action in a complaint or of an affirmative defense in an answer.
