Sec. 6-117.
General denial.
Under a general denial which alleges generally that the
defendant is not guilty of unlawfully withholding the premises claimed
by the plaintiff, the defendant may offer in evidence any matter that may
tend to defeat the plaintiff's action, except that it shall not put in
issue the possession of the premises by the defendant or that he or she claims
title or interest in the premises.
