FAQ
When filing a lawsuit in California, the original complaint may be either verified or unverified. If it is verified, the plaintiff makes assertions under the pains and penalties of perjury. A verified complaint also forces the defendant to respond to the lawsuit with a verified answer.
If the answer is not verified, the allegations of the complaint are deemed admitted and the plaintiff can move for judgment on the pleadings or move to strike the answer and take judgment by default.
This may be by a sheriffs officer or a private process server. Delivery may also be made at the defendant's home to a member of the household at least 14 years of age. If personal service cannot be made, then the plaintiff has the option of serving the papers by regular and certified mail.
The costs for filing a complaint in Special Civil are: $50 for a complaint where the amount claimed is $5,000 or less. $75 for a complaint where the amount claimed is more than $5,000. $5 for each additional defendant.
Unless a rule or statute specifically states otherwise, a pleading need not be verified or accompanied by an affidavit.
