TIPS FOR FILING IN CIVIL COURT - FAQ

www.occourts.org

Question Answer

Will the Court accept my personal check?

Yes, providing your name and address is imprinted on check.

Make checks payable to: Clerk of the Court

How long does it take for my document to be

filed?

Most new cases and responses are filed on the same day received. Documents, such as defaults

and motions, may take several days to process. Documents which must be presented to the Judge

for review or signature may take longer to process and file.

If you have not received your document back within two weeks, you may want to call the court for a

“status check” of your filing. Please have your case number ready when you call.

How do I know if my document was

accepted for filing?

Submit your original document plus one copy along with a self, addressed, stamped envelope. The

clerk will return your document in one of two ways:

If your copy has a "file stamp" in the top right corner of your document, then it was accepted for

filing. This stamp indicates the actual date of filing.

If your document was rejected, the clerk will return to you the original document and any copies

along with a “rejection” sheet stating the reason your document was not filed.

What does the file stamp mean? The file date stamp indicates the date your document was accepted for filing by the Court.

If your document shows a canceled file date, this means your document was received on that date;

however, it was necessary to reject the document for reasons stated on the “rejection” sheet.

The statute time for filing my complaint will

soon expire. How can I ensure a timely file

date?

File the document in person at the correct Justice Center. It is your responsibility to file your

documents timely.

Are footers required on all documents? Yes. Review Rule 2.100 et seq. California Rules of Court.

What is required to file a complaint? Original complaint. In Limited Civil actions, a copy of the face page is also required.

Correct fees.

Civil Case Cover Sheet. (Check Judicial Council forms listing.)

In Limited Civil actions, the amount of prayer in complaint and jurisdiction must by typed under

caption of case.

Cases that are $25,000 and under, must state “Limited Civil” in the caption of the complaint.

(CCP 422.30(b)).

If Unlawful Detainer action, a 5-day summons must be provided to the clerk for issuance. (CCP

1166).

Is my hearing STILL on calendar tomorrow?

If you have not heard from the court, you may assume your case is still on calendar.

If you have submitted a continuance request it may be considered by the court at the time of the

hearing, not before. Therefore, the clerk’s office will not be able to advise you of the status of your

continuance request.

If the hearing is for a Case Management Conference on a Limited Civil action and you filed a correct

and timely Memorandum to Set Case for Trial, a dismissal or judgment, then your case will not

proceed to hearing.

Do the parties need to be present at the

Case Management Conference?

Review Rule 3.722(c) of the California Rules of Court.

We have a Case Management Conference

coming up. Does the attorney need to

appear?

Yes. Appearance is mandatory unless previously waived by the court. Review Rule 3.722(d) of the

California Rules of Court.

What is the likelihood of our case going to

trial on the scheduled trial date?

VERY likely! The Judicial Officer makes that determination on the morning of your scheduled trial

date. Counsel should be ready to go to trial. The clerk has no information prior to that date.

INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO COMPLETE THE COVER SHEET

To Plaintiffs and Others Filing First Papers. If you are filing a first paper (for example, a complaint) in a civil case, you must

complete and file, along with your first paper, the Civil Case Cover Sheet contained on page 1. This information will be used to compile

statistics about the types and numbers of cases filed. You must complete items 1 through 6 on the sheet. In item 1, you must check

one box for the case type that best describes the case. If the case fits both a general and a more specific type of case listed in item 1,

check the more specific one. If the case has multiple causes of action, check the box that best indicates the primary cause of action.

To assist you in completing the sheet, examples of the cases that belong under each case type in item 1 are provided below. A cover

sheet must be filed only with your initial paper. Failure to file a cover sheet with the first paper filed in a civil case may subject a party,

its counsel, or both to sanctions under rules 2.30 and 3.220 of the California Rules of Court.

To Parties in Complex Cases

. In complex cases only, parties must also use the Civil Case Cover Sheet to designate whether the

case is complex. If a plaintiff believes the case is complex under rule 3.400 of the California Rules of Court, this must be indicated by

completing the appropriate boxes in items 1 and 2. If a plaintiff designates a case as complex, the cover sheet must be served with the

complaint on all parties to the action. A defendant may file and serve no later than the time of its first appearance a joinder in the

plaintiff's designation, a counter-designation that the case is not complex, or, if the plaintiff has made no designation, a designation that

the case is complex.

CIVIL CASE COVER SHEET

CM-010

To Parties in Rule 3.740 Collections Cases. A "collections case" under rule 3.740 is defined as an action for recovery of money

owed in a sum stated to be certain that is not more than $25,000, exclusive of interest and attorney's fees, arising from a transaction in

which property, services, or money was acquired on credit. A collections case does not include an action seeking the following: (1) tort

damages, (2) punitive damages, (3) recovery of real property, (4) recovery of personal property, or (5) a prejudgment writ of

attachment. The identification of a case as a rule 3.740 collections case on this form means that it will be exempt from the general

time-for-service requirements and case management rules, unless a defendant files a responsive pleading. A rule 3.740 collections

case will be subject to the requirements for service and obtaining a judgment in rule 3.740.

ADR Information

Introduction.

Most civil disputes are resolved without filing a lawsuit, and most civil lawsuits are resolved without a trial.

The courts and others offer a variety of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) processes to help people

resolve disputes without a trial. ADR is usually less formal, less expensive, and less time-consuming than

a trial. ADR can also give people more opportunity to determine when and how their dispute will be

resolved.

BENEFITS OF ADR.

Using ADR may have a variety of benefits, depending on the type of ADR process used and the

circumstances of the particular case. Some potential benefits of ADR are summarized below.

Save Time. A dispute often can be settled or decided much sooner with ADR; often in a matter of

months, even weeks, while bringing a lawsuit to trial can take a year or more.

Save Money. When cases are resolved earlier through ADR, the parties may save some of the money

they would have spent on attorney fees, court costs, experts' fees, and other litigation expenses.

Increase Control Over the Process and the Outcome. In ADR, parties typically play a greater role in

shaping both the process and its outcome. In most ADR processes, parties have more opportunity to tell

their side of the story than they do at trial. Some ADR processes, such as mediation, allow the parties to

fashion creative resolutions that are not available in a trial. Other ADR processes, such as arbitration,

allow the parties to choose an expert in a particular field to decide the dispute.

Preserve Relationships. ADR can be a less adversarial and hostile way to resolve a dispute. For

example, an experienced mediator can help the parties effectively communicate their needs and point of

view to the other side. This can be an important advantage where the parties have a relationship to

preserve.

Increase Satisfaction. In a trial, there is typically a winner and a loser. The loser is not likely to be

happy, and even the winner may not be completely satisfied with the outcome. ADR can help the parties

find win-win solutions and achieve their real goals. This, along with all of ADR's other potential

advantages, may increase the parties' overall satisfaction with both the dispute resolution process and the

outcome.

Improve Attorney-Client Relationships. Attorneys may also benefit from ADR by being seen as problem-

solvers rather than combatants. Quick, cost-effective, and satisfying resolutions are likely to produce

happier clients and thus generate repeat business from clients and referrals of their friends and associates.

DISADVANTAGES OF ADR.

ADR may not be suitable for every dispute.

Loss of protections. If ADR is binding, the parties normally give up most court protections, including a

decision by a judge or jury under formal rules of evidence and procedure, and review for legal error by an

appellate court.

L1200 Rev. Dec. 2019

Page 3 of 4

Less discovery. There generally is less opportunity to find out about the other side’s case with ADR

than with litigation. ADR may not be effective if it takes place before the parties have sufficient

information to resolve the dispute.

Additional costs. The neutral may charge a fee for his or her services. If a dispute is not resolved

through ADR, the parties may have to put time and money into both ADR and a lawsuit.

Effect of delays if the dispute is not resolved. Lawsuits must be brought within specified periods of

time, known as statues of limitation. Parties must be careful not to let a statute of limitations run out while

a dispute is in an ADR process.

TYPES OF ADR IN CIVIL CASES.

The most commonly used ADR processes are arbitration, mediation, neutral evaluation and settlement

conferences.

Arbitration. In arbitration, a neutral person called an "arbitrator" hears arguments and evidence from

each side and then decides the outcome of the dispute. Arbitration is less formal than a trial, and the rules

of evidence are often relaxed. Arbitration may be either "binding" or "nonbinding." Binding arbitration

means that the parties waive their right to a trial and agree to accept the arbitrator's decision as final.

Generally, there is no right to appeal an arbitrator's decision. Nonbinding arbitration means that the

parties are free to request a trial if they do not accept the arbitrator's decision.

Cases for Which Arbitration May Be Appropriate. Arbitration is best for cases where the parties

want another person to decide the outcome of their dispute for them but would like to avoid the

formality, time, and expense of a trial. It may also be appropriate for complex matters where the

parties want a decision-maker who has training or experience in the subject matter of the dispute.

Cases for Which Arbitration May Not Be Appropriate. If parties want to retain control over how

their dispute is resolved, arbitration, particularly binding arbitration, is not appropriate. In binding

arbitration, the parties generally cannot appeal the arbitrator's award, even if it is not supported by the

evidence or the law. Even in nonbinding arbitration, if a party requests a trial and does not receive a

more favorable result at trial than in arbitration, there may be penalties.

Mediation. In mediation, an impartial person called a "mediator" helps the parties try to reach a mutually

acceptable resolution of the dispute. The mediator does not decide the dispute but helps the parties

communicate so they can try to settle the dispute themselves. Mediation leaves control of the outcome

with the parties.

Cases for Which Mediation May Be Appropriate. Mediation may be particularly useful when

parties have a relationship they want to preserve. So when family members, neighbors, or business

partners have a dispute, mediation may be the ADR process to use. Mediation is also effective when

emotions are getting in the way of resolution. An effective mediator can hear the parties out and help

them communicate with each other in an effective and nondestructive manner.

Cases for Which Mediation May Not Be Appropriate. Mediation may not be effective if one of the

parties is unwilling to cooperate or compromise. Mediation also may not be effective if one of the

parties has a significant advantage in power over the other. Therefore, it may not be a good choice if

the parties have a history of abuse or victimization.

Neutral Evaluation. In neutral evaluation, each party gets a chance to present the case to a neutral

person called an "evaluator." The evaluator then gives an opinion on the strengths and weaknesses of

each party's evidence and arguments and about how the dispute could be resolved. The evaluator is

L1200 Rev. Dec. 2019

Page 4 of 4

often an expert in the subject matter of the dispute. Although the evaluator's opinion is not binding, the

parties typically use it as a basis for trying to negotiate a resolution of the dispute.

Cases for Which Neutral Evaluation May Be Appropriate. Neutral evaluation may be most

appropriate in cases in which there are technical issues that require special expertise to resolve or

the only significant issue in the case is the amount of damages.

Cases for Which Neutral Evaluation May Not Be Appropriate. Neutral evaluation may not be

appropriate when there are significant personal or emotional barriers to resolving the dispute.

Settlement Conferences. Settlement conferences may be either mandatory or voluntary. In both types

of settlement conferences, the parties and their attorneys meet with a judge or a neutral person called a

"settlement officer" to discuss possible settlement of their dispute. The judge or settlement officer does

not make a decision in the case but assists the parties in evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of the

case and in negotiating a settlement. Settlement conferences are appropriate in any case where

settlement is an option. Mandatory settlement conferences are often held close to the date a case is set

for trial.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

In addition to mediation, arbitration, neutral evaluation, and settlement conferences, there are other types

of ADR, including conciliation, fact finding, mini-trials, and summary jury trials. Sometimes parties will try

a combination of ADR types. The important thing is to try to find the type or types of ADR that are most

likely to resolve your dispute.
