What's the difference between a defense and an affirmative defense? If you're in law school - or just interested in how law works - you may have heard this term and wondered what the heck the lawyers were talking about. Why not just call it a defense? Affirmative defenses are defenses that negate the entire claim in a civil case, or negate the entire crime in a criminal case. And the defendant has the burden of proof. But what does that really mean? And what are some examples of affirmative defenses and how they really work in practice when you're being sued in court? Attorney Kevin Kneupper explains the concept and walks you through a real lawsuit with its affirmative defenses - as well as what the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure say - in this video.
