Definition. A verified complaint is a sworn document in which the plaintiff tells the court the facts of the case and states what relief is sought.
If you're dealing with child custody, parenting time, or child support matters and aren't married, this can be a somewhat daunting and complicated process, as you look to do what's right for your family and children. These matters are called non-dissolution proceedings, under the “FD” Docket in New Jersey.
A civil case is filed if the plaintiff seeks more than $20,000 from the plaintiff. Plaintiffs seeking $20,000 or less file in the special civil part. Plaintiffs seeking $5,000 or less can file a small claims case. Both specialized systems include lower fees and faster resolution.
These matters are initiated by the filing of a Complaint by the Plaintiff. FD cases: are non-dissolution matters, custody, parenting time, child support, primarily utilized for parties that have children in common, but are not married to each other or parties that are not married, but not ready for a divorce action.
If you have been served with a Summons and Divorce Complaint, you are the defendant. The person who filed the divorce is the plaintiff. You have 35 days to respond to the Summons and Divorce Complaint. If you do not respond to the court at all, the court may grant the divorce and order in favor of the Plaintiff.
“FD” on a court case means it is a non-dissolution case. This type of case involves parents who are not married or other adults filing for court relief on behalf of minor children. FD cases can also include married people who are separated, but one parent wants custody or financial support.
Defendants must file a written answer to the complaint within 35 days of the date shown on the summons. Each defendant must file a separate answer. If you have evidence showing that you do not owe the amount claimed, such as receipts, attach copies of those papers to every copy of your answer.
