Pregnant
Pleading. A fulness in the pleadings which admits or involves a matter which is favorable to the opposite party. It is either an affirmative pregnant, or negative pregnant.

Negative
This word has several significations: 1) It is used in contradistinction to giving assent; thus we say the president has put his negative upon such a bill. 2. It is also used in contradistinction to affirmative; as, a negative does not always admit of the simple and direct proof of which an affirmative is capable. When a party affirms a negative in his pleadings, and without the establishment of which, by evidence, he cannot recover or defend himself, the burden of the proof lies upon him, and he must prove the negative.
