Add Date To Legal Connecticut Services Forms For Free

Court rules state that defendants should file an appearance within 2 days after the Return date. When you file an Appearance, you are agreeing that the Court has authority over you and you are expected to follow the rules and decisions of the Court.

You must file an "Appearance" Form (JD-CL-12) with the court clerk's office. It includes your name, address, telephone number, and signature. It tells the court that you are representing yourself. Filing it allows the court to contact you about all court events in your case.

The motion or application must be accompanied by a memorandum and a declaration containing facts sufficient to justify the sealing. A copy of the motion or application must be served on all parties that have appeared in the case.

An appearance is a system-populated form which means the e-filing system will automatically fill the form with the information you gave when you enrolled in E-Services. If the information from your enrollment has changed, you can change what the system automatically fills-in on the appearance form.

The first step is calling the Superior Court's case flow coordinator clerk. This official is responsible for all court case scheduling and will provide you with the forms and information you need to file the request. Inform your bail bondsman of the request after filing the paperwork with the court clerk.

The "return day" is the date that begins the countdown for things taking place in. your civil case. The date of the return day controls: ? the day by which service of process (delivery of summons and com- plaint to the defendant(s)) must be completed by the State Marshal.
