California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 6 — Of the Pleadings in Civil Actions, Chapter 2 — Pleadings Demanding Relief, Article 4 — Cross-Complaints, Section 428.40

Notes

Requires a cross-complaint to be filed as a separate document. The provision imposes that document-separation requirement on the cross-complaint rather than allowing it to be incorporated into another pleading, and states no additional condition, deadline, monetary threshold, or exception to the separate-document rule.
