I have attached a copy of the supporting documentation as required by the court's rules. I kindly request that you review the enclosed documents and, upon your approval, publish the summons as required by law in a newspaper of general circulation in Maricopa County for the proper duration mandated by the court rules. In addition to the required publication, please let me know the specific steps, timeline, and costs associated with publishing the summons. Additionally, inform me of any specific guidelines or forms that I need to follow to facilitate the summons by publication process smoothly. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter and let me know if there are any further steps or requirements that I should be aware of during this process. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
