What is "Demand for Admission" in a legal sense?  When I g00gle it, I
get pages that talk about the popularity of getting into college.  I
need to know more about the thing that lawyers serve in a court case.
I know all about the famous disclaimers at the bottom of the page.

In the law enforcement world a "demand for admission" is sometimes the
technical term for (serving or executing) a search warrant.

In lawyer world, a demand for admission is most commonly referred to
as a motion for "discovery". This is when one party to a suit seeks
the relevant information or "admissions" from any other party in a
suit so that it can be stipulated or "admitted" as a matter of court
record.

I suspect one of these are the issues you are interested in; most
likley the latter. Here is an article that talks about motions for
discovery and refers to it by it's more informal moniker "demand for
admission":

"Any party may demand relevant information or admissions from any
other party. Such demands must be given in writing by due notice.
Objections to such demands may be made by giving due notice. The
arbitrator shall rule on such objections in a timely manner. Failure
to object to a demand for admission shall not be construed as an
admission."
http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/arbitration.html

However, to learn more about this process you will not search for
"demand for admission", rather "motion for discovery" (or "motion of
disicovery") during which admissions are made known and admitted as
evidence in a criminal or civil suit.

Have I given you enough information now to give you an idea what the
process is, or have I gently and suffiently prodded you in the right
direction as an sufficient answer?

Thank you.  Please post as an answer.  (Boy! that lack of notification
makes things difficult).

Dear philnj-ga;

Thank you for allowing me to answer your interesting question. In an
effort to officially close your question I am merely reposting my
comments here [and yes, I agree, the malfunctioning notification
feature is indeed a hinderance that we collectively hope is corrected
soon. Unfortunately it?s a programming engineer issue and there?s
nothing the researchers can do about it.]:
