PROCESS SERVING

Service of Court Papers

"Service of court papers" means that the other party (or parties in the case) must get copies of any documents you file with the court.  In “service” a third person (NOT you) is the one who actually delivers the paperwork to the other side.  The person who does this is called the “server” or “process server.”

If you are not sure how you must serve your paperwork, ask your court’s self-help center, family law facilitator or small claims legal advisor, or or talk to a lawyer. This office cannot advise or help you select the appropriate service required for your case. Learn more about the specific rules regarding service at:
  • The California Code of Civil Procedure;
  • California Rules of Court; and
  • Local Rules.
