Special Civil is limited to cases in which the demand is $20,000 or less. If you believe you are entitled to recover more than $20,000, your case should be filed in the Law Division of the Superior Court.
If you received a summons for a lawsuit, you have 35 days to respond. After this time, you could lose the case by default judgment. To respond to a lawsuit summons, you need to complete the packet “How to File an Answer to a Complaint in Civil Court.” It includes the instructions and answer form.
For each paragraph in the complaint, state whether: the defendant admits the allegations in that paragraph; denies the allegations; lacks sufficient knowledge to admit or deny the allegations; or admits certain allegations but denies, or lacks sufficient knowledge to admit or deny, the rest.

Typically, civil lawsuits seek monetary compensation for the victim or a solution to end further harm through an injunction. This differs from a criminal case, in which a prosecutor acts on behalf of the government. In a criminal case the goal is to punish the wrongdoer with imprisonment or fines for breaking the law.
The Surrogate, a Judge of this Court by New Jersey Constitution, is the person who passes on the validity of a Will, gives the executor proof of authority to administer the estate and sees to it that the executor handles the estate properly.
The Surrogate's Office is by appointment only. If you need an appointment, please click below to schedule at our main office in New Brunswick. If you need any special accommodations for your appointment, please call our office at 732-745-3055 to make appointment over the phone.
A Short Certificate is the document issued by the Surrogate. The executor will use the Short Certificate as proof of their authority to transfer or sell the decedent's assets. A Short Certificate is needed for the transfer or sale of any asset that is solely in the decedent's name.
Once you determine the number of assets, that will indicate how many Surrogate short certificates are needed. Typically, a short certificate is valid for up to a year. However, some financial institutions will only accept one dated within 60 days.
