What should I do next?
A copy of this form must be e-mailed, mailed, or hand delivered to any other party/parties in your case.
Please note that if the notice is mailed, the court in certain circumstances may not consider mailing to
be adequate notice. This is a technical area of the law; if you have any question about it, you should
consult a lawyer.
