                                                                                          John (9008)
                                                            
                          
                          
                                                          The court does not do this at all. It is the responsibility of the defendant to give you a copy of the answer (this is called "serving" it), just as you got him a copy of your complaint. You can check with the court to see if an answer has been filed and mistakenly was not sent to you, however.
