Arizona Summons is a legal document issued by a court in the state of Arizona that orders a defendant to appear in court to answer a complaint. There are three types of Arizona Summons: service by publication, service by mail, and personal service. Service by publication involves publishing the summons in a newspaper or other public place, service by mail involves delivery of the summons by certified mail, and personal service involves the physical delivery of the summons to the defendant by a process server. The summons must be issued within 120 days of the filing of the complaint and served within 120 days of issuance. The summons is typically accompanied by a copy of the complaint and instructions on how to respond to the complaint. The summons must also include the return date of the court, the address of the court, and other important information.
