Court Code 43470, as part of a broader set of regulations, governs specific aspects of civil litigation, particularly regarding the filing and processing of documents within Santa Clara County Superior Court.
How to structure a character reference: Introduce yourself, state what your occupation is and any qualifications you hold. In what capacity do you know them the defendant? Tell the court that you're aware of the proceedings. Give some background surrounding your relationship with the defendant.
Tells the court that you had legal papers in a civil case - other than a summons - delivered to (served on) the other party. Lists the papers that were served and tells who they were served on, where, when, and how they were served, and who served them.
An example of a Proof of Service is a signed declaration from the person who served the documents, stating the name of the person who was served and the date, time, and manner of service. A Proof of Service may also include an affidavit, which is a sworn statement that the documents were properly served.
Tells the court that you had the other party served in person with legal papers. Lists the papers that were served. It also tells when and where the papers were served and who served them.
Proof of service is a document that functions like a legal “receipt” confirming the delivery of documents from one party to another in a legal matter. It is a written version of a sworn statement attesting to the completion of service of process.
The process server must fill out and sign the proof of service form, which shows how, when, and where the papers were served, and who received them. The server then gives you the proof of service. Make a copy of the proof of service. Take both the original and the copy to the court clerk to file.
Follow the order of this format, leaving a space in between each section: Your Information (first thing that goes on the inside of the letter) Name. The Date. The Judge's Information. Honorable Judge First Name Last Name. What the Letter Is Going to Address. Salutation. Body. Signature.
The letter should be addressed to the Judge, but mailed to the defendant's attorney. Who are you? ... Make it personal when describing the defendant's characteristics. Only talk about what you know. Be truthful. Never attack the victims or law enforcement. Never allow the defendant to write the letter for you.
When writing, avoid simply describing the defendant in terms like “he is loyal.” Instead, tell a story about his loyalty, or how he has been an upstanding member of the community. A story will stand out in the judge's mind more than adjectives will, making your letter more effective.
