FAQ
Conclusion. Do not ignore a summons! Never ignore a summons as doing so would mean that the Plaintiff can obtain judgment against you by default without your intervention. This process does also take time so do not assume the matter has just gone away.
After service to the defendants, the original summons, along with the "return of service" proving the summons and complaint were served, is filed with the court to show that each defendant was served. A summons differs from a subpena, which is an order to a witness to appear.
The term Return date means the day named in a writ or other form of legal process as the date when the response to that paper must be made. Return date, in case of divorce cases is the date on which the stipulated waiting period for a divorce begins. It is also the date by which the defendant should file an appearance.
Proof of Service of Summons (POS-010) Tells the court that you had a summons or other legal papers delivered to (served on) the other party in a case. Lists the papers that were served and tells who they were served on, where, when, and how they were served, and who served them.
This is the date on which you must appear in court and answer the complaint. A default judgment may be entered against you, if you do not show in court on the date. The return date is typically set within 30 days of the date of service. You will receive notice of the return date when you are served with the lawsuit.
(The “return date” of a summons is the date to respond or face default.) Different courts have different forms and different time limits. And note that by having the summons issued, a party suddenly can invoke the full power of the civil courts to obtain relief.
