| Service
of Process: Once you have completed all the forms, you will
have to file them with the court. If you are filing a Complaint,
Petition or Motion to start a new case or re-open an old case, you will
have to have the other side served with a copy of all the court
papers and a summons, which will be provided by the Clerk's Office. Once
the service has been completed you must file a document, signed by the
person who has effected service, to prove that the other party was served.
The form varies depending upon the type of service. Please download the
