In First 30 Days

This skill should be used when an Indiana defendant has just been served with a civil complaint and asks "I was just sued in Indiana", "I have 20 days to answer", "Trial Rule 6(C)", "Indiana answer template", "T.R. 12(B)(6) motion to dismiss", "Indiana affirmative defenses", "counterclaim Indiana", "default judgment Indiana T.R. 55", "what to do after being served Indiana", "Indiana civil summons response", or any related first-response question. Covers the 20-day answer deadline under T.R. 6(C), the T.R. 12(B) motion-to-dismiss framework (especially T.R. 12(B)(6) failure to state a claim), affirmative defenses catalog under T.R. 8(C), compulsory counterclaims under T.R. 13(A), default-judgment risk under T.R. 55, and the Appearance form under T.R. 3.1. Trigger phrases: "just been served Indiana", "20 days T.R. 6(C)", "T.R. 12(B)(6)", "Indiana motion to dismiss", "Indiana answer", "Indiana affirmative defenses", "T.R. 13 counterclaim", "T.R. 55 default".
