Form 26. Motion to Dismiss, Presenting Defenses of Failure to State a Claim, of Lack of Service of Process, of Improper Venue, and of Lack of Jurisdiction under Rule 12(b).
No, you cannot be arrested for a civil suit or for failing to appear for a civil suit. However, failure to appear does not stop the civil lawsuit from moving forward without you. You may end up with a default judgement against you, but you won't be arrested.
You simply need to fill out an official court answer form, tell the court why you disagree with the lawsuit, and file the paperwork with the court. Then, you have to send a copy of your answer form to the person suing you. Finally, wait to get notice from the court about next steps.
About the Court The Court of Civil Appeals consists of five judges, the most senior judge serving as the presiding judge. This court has original appellate jurisdiction in all civil appeals where the amount in controversy does not exceed $50,000.
A summons is a writ used to notify the person named as the defendant of the commencement of the civil action and the requirement to appear and answer.
One may feel one has a dispute with a business person or a family member-but once the summons is issued it is the full power of the law and the courts that is brought to bear in the dispute and it is absolutely vital to treat it seriously, file a response within the time limits…or face the consequences.
Yes. If you do not appear for jury service at the date and time directed by the summons, you can be fined for up to $1,000, put in jail for up to 60 days, or both. If you do not complete jury service, you can be fined for up to $1,000, put in jail for up to 90 days, or both.
Your date of jury duty service sometimes can be changed if there is a pressing reason, for example, a previously scheduled medical procedure of travel plans. You can make this change online or by calling the Jury Office at 301-952-4385.
You may also call the Jury Office at 240-777-9090 to reschedule; please have your juror badge ID number available. However, please note that because new jurors are being checked in early each morning, the phone line does not open until am Monday-Friday.
