Reference: Counter-Petition for Dissolution of Marriage

Reference information:
While the Answer to your spouse’s Petition may allow you to agree to or object to the requests they’ve outlined in the initial Petition, it does not allow you to outline your own requests to the court. This is where a Counter-Petition comes in. The Counter-Petition allows you to outline your requests for “affirmative relief,” or what you would like to see happen in regards to the various issues and categories that make up your case.

From my understanding, the counter-petition is not necessarily a lawsuit
