The answer to a civil complaint would have everything to do with the nature of the complaint. The answer would have to specifically address the points of the complaint.

The civil complain was unjustified, with only circumstantial evidence. The complaint is frivolous and unfounded and judgement for the plaintiff.

You should seek legal advice to answer a complaint and make sure you answer in the time required or you may be found in default. An answer should mirror the complaint and respond to each section stating what you agree with and what you do not agree with.

You can go to the Massachusetts court system website and click in the upper left hand corner on courts. Click on the type of court and review the forms available.

Civil complains must be paid or contested within 20 days of being issued. If the complaint is not contested or paid a bench warrent may be issued for the offender.

This would depend entirely on the nature of the complaint. There is most likely a very short time frame in which you have to respond. It would be best to seek legal representation as quickly as possible. Otherwise, you can respond by following the format of the complaint itself and specifically denying all of the allegations.
