Forms
-
Using the proper form is critical to processing your court action. Often more than one form will be needed to process your case.
-
Many forms need to be signed in front of a notary public. Also be aware of the implications of signing a form. You may want to check with a lawyer before putting your signature on a document.
Fees
-
The amount of a fee will vary depending on your case. Fee "schedules" are published in the court rules.
-
Fees may be paid with cash, money order and personal check.
-
In some circumstances, it may be possible to ask the court to waive a portion of the filing fee.
