A Dictionary of Law
An answer or plea is called “frivolous” when itis clearly insuticient on its face, and does not controvert the material points of the opposite pleading, and is presumably interposed for mere purposes of delay or to embarrass the plaintiff. A frivolous demurrer has heen defined to be one which ig so clearly untenable, or its insullicieney so manifest upon a bare inspection of the pleadings, that its character may be determined without argument or research.
