Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Kentucky

does demands for dismissal in an answer to a petition count as a motion for dism

After service of summons and original petition to defendant for a case in US District court; the defendant answers denying all allegations. Twice in the answer demand for dismissal is made. I read that I have 14 days to answer any motion filed on a docket. Does this count as a motion giving me the opportunity to answer? If so is it customary to answer as to why it should not be dismissed or is this just a customary demand that goes unchecked?

Dude!......If you don't get a lawyer quick you are going to lose the case. Call the Kentucky Bar Association, your local County Bar Association, your local Legal Services Corporation, or the Federal Court Clerk for lawyer referral information.
