FAQ
Riverside Superior Court Local Rule 3116 provides: Unless otherwise specified in the Order to Show Cause, any response in opposition to an Order to Show Case (a) shall be in the form of a written declaration and (b) shall be filed no less than four court days before the hearing on the Order to Show Cause.
Primary tabs. 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. A plaintiff starts a civil action by filing a pleading called a complaint.
Settlement: At any time after the filing of the Complaint, the parties may engage in settlement discussions. A settlement occurs when the parties resolve their civil dispute, usually after negotiating among themselves rather than the court or a jury deciding the case.
File a complaint with government or consumer programs File a complaint with your local consumer protection office. Notify the Better Business Bureau (BBB) in your area about your problem. The BBB tries to resolve complaints against companies. Report scams and suspicious communications to the Federal Trade Commission.
Filing your complaint starts your case, but the summons is the document that is issued under the court's authority that notifies your defendant they are being sued and that they need to take action.
In essence, a legal complaint initiates a lawsuit, while a lawsuit encompasses the entire process of resolving the dispute in court. The existence of a lawsuit and its course through the judicial process is also referred to as “litigation.”
Complaint Procedure You should first contact the Sheriff's station where the incident occurred. You may also contact the Sheriff's Professional Standards Bureau to file a complaint.
The Process To begin a civil lawsuit in federal court, the plaintiff files a complaint with the court and “serves” a copy of the complaint on the defendant.
