The right to object to an error in a complaint is waived if not raised before the commencement of the trial on the merits.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. It can be raised during trial in some cases
• D. It is never waived

Answer: (A)

Raising objections to errors in a complaint must happen before the trial on the merits begins. If you don’t object in time, the right to object is waived, and the case proceeds on the pleading as filed. This helps keep the process orderly and gives the other party a chance to fix pleadings before evidence and arguments start. While there may be rare situations where a court allows amendments or addresses issues on the fly, the default rule is waiver if the objection isn’t raised prior to the start of trial. So the statement is true.
