A quick definition of primary plea:

A primary plea is a statement made in a legal case that is the main accusation against the other party. It is like saying "this is what they did wrong." In some cases, the other party can respond with a defensive allegation, which is their side of the story. A material allegation is an important part of the accusation that is necessary for the case to make sense. In family law, an allegation of faculties is an old-fashioned way of saying a statement about a spouse's property when seeking alimony.

A more thorough explanation:

A primary plea is a legal term that refers to the principal charge made against an adversary in a legal proceeding. It is also known as a primary allegation.

For example, in a criminal case, the primary plea would be the charge against the defendant, such as murder or theft. In a civil case, the primary plea would be the plaintiff's claim against the defendant, such as breach of contract or negligence.

Another example of a legal term related to primary plea is defensive allegation. This refers to a defendant's response in an ecclesiastical action, where they plead the facts relied upon that require the plaintiff's response under oath.

Overall, primary plea is an important legal concept that helps to define the main charge or claim in a legal proceeding.
