How do I file a complaint or petition in civil court? You file the complaint or petition with the clerk of court. You generally want to file in the court in the county where the person you are suing lives. Along with the complaint, the court must be told where to serve (give it a copy of it to) the defendant.
A complaint is the pleading that starts a case. Essentially, a document that sets forth a jurisdictional basis for the court's power, the plaintiff's cause of action, and a demand for judicial relief.
