It is common to speak of an entire species of bacteria as pathogenic when it is identified as the cause of a disease (cf. Koch's postulates). However, the modern view is that pathogenicity depends on the microbial ecosystem as a whole.
If someone files a motion before the date an answer to a complaint is due, the timeline to respond to the motion is: 10 days from the date of service of the motion, OR. the date the defendantâs answer is due (20 days from the date the complaint was served), whichever is later.
Other parties have the chance to file and serve a written response to the motion. There is a specific deadline for filing and serving a written response, usually fourteen (14) days prior to a hearing. The response may agree with or oppose the action requested. If the response opposes the action requested, it must contain the reasons for opposing the motion and must include supporting evidence.
