INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO COMPLETE THE COVER SHEET To Plaintiffs and Others Filing First Papers. If you are filing a first paper (for example, a complaint) in a civil case, you must complete and file, along with your first paper, the Civil Case Cover Sheet contained on page 1. This information will be used to compile statistics about the types and numbers of cases filed. You must complete items 1 through 6 on the sheet. In item 1, you must check one box for the case type that best describes the case. If the case fits both a general and a more specific type of case listed in item 1, check the more specific one. If the case has multiple causes of action, check the box that best indicates the primary cause of action. To assist you in completing the sheet, examples of the cases that belong under each case type in item 1 are provided below. A cover sheet must be filed only with your initial paper. Failure to file a cover sheet with the first paper filed in a civil case may subject a party, its counsel, or both to sanctions under rules 2.30 and 3.220 of the California Rules of Court.

To Parties in Complex Cases. In complex cases only, parties must also use the Civil Case Cover Sheet to designate whether the case is complex. If a plaintiff believes the case is complex under rule 3.400 of the California Rules of Court, this must be indicated by completing the appropriate boxes in items 1 and 2. If a plaintiff designates a case as complex, the cover sheet must be served with the complaint on all parties to the action. A defendant may file and serve no later than the time of its first appearance a joinder in the plaintiff's designation, a counter-designation that the case is not complex, or, if the plaintiff has made no designation, a designation that the case is complex.

To Parties in Rule 3.740 Collections Cases. A "collections case" under rule 3.740 is defined as an action for recovery of money owed in a sum stated to be certain that is not more than $25,000, exclusive of interest and attorney's fees, arising from a transaction in which property, services, or money was acquired on credit. A collections case does not include an action seeking the following: (1) tort damages, (2) punitive damages, (3) recovery of real property, (4) recovery of personal property, or (5) a prejudgment writ of attachment. The identification of a case as a rule 3.740 collections case on this form means that it will be exempt from the general time-for-service requirements and case management rules, unless a defendant files a responsive pleading. A rule 3.740 collections case will be subject to the requirements for service and obtaining a judgment in rule 3.740.

Box 'f' is optional, if you wish to serve the other party with a "Prejudgment Claim of Right to Possession," then include it in the space provided. The Prejudgment Claim of Right to Possession form is optional in unlawful detainer cases. The purpose for this form is for any unknown/unauthorized occupants that are living in the home to be able to add themselves to this case. If you decide to use this form, you will need to have one form for each unknown/unauthorized occupant. In addition, the prejudgment claim of right to possession form can only be served by a registered process server or Sheriff.

DO NOT WRITE ON THE FORM BELOW!!! A blank copy of the Prejudgment Claim is to be served on the “unknown occupants” by the registered process server or sheriff, if that applies to your case.

Print Print out your set of forms.

Review Review all of the information that you have completed. Make sure to sign all of the appropriate areas. Our Resource Center has been trained to review these documents with you prior to filing, so please stop by. Reminder: You need to have completed your Notice Step first -- before filing the eviction lawsuit.

File When you are ready to file your paperwork you will need to make (2) copies of the original documents and file them with the clerk’s office within the court in your jurisdiction (the same court that is listed in your paperwork). The filing fee for an Unlawful Detainer Summons and Complaint is $255.00 for a complaint that requests $10,000.00 or less. If a complaint requests more than $10,000.00, then the filing fee is $395.00. Bring cash/check/credit card or fill out the fee waiver application paperwork.

Serve Once you have filed your paperwork with the court, you will need to have the other party served with a copy of your documents. The person who served the other party will complete the proof of service form and sign it. REMEMBER! A person over the age of 18 and not a party to the action is supposed to serve the documents to the other party… NOT YOU!

Next Steps: UD Complaint 12/14/10

If there are unknown occupants living on the property that you wish to evict, then you must hire a registered process server (or Sheriff). The unknown occupants are served with a copy of the lawsuit and the blank Prejudgment Claim of Right to Possession form (CP-10.5). If you do not hire a registered process server or use the Sheriff to serve the unknown adult occupants of the property, then you may need to repeat the entire eviction process once you evict the people named in your eviction lawsuit. The Sheriff is only authorized to remove the persons from the house who are stated on the paperwork, and the court clerk won’t be able to add “all unknown occupants” to your judgment paperwork and Writ of Possession unless you follow the law exactly regarding service of the unknown occupants.

Finishing up… After the other party has been served, you will need to file the Proof of Service Form. The form will need to be filed with the clerk’s office within the court in your jurisdiction (the same court that is listed in your paperwork). You should file your Proof of Service form as soon as possible. The tenant has 5 days to file a response with the court. If you served unknown occupants then they will have 15 days to file an answer with the court. If the tenant(s) file an answer with the court, then you will need to file a Request to Set Case for Trial form. If the tenant(s) did not file an answer with the court, then you will need to follow the default process. See our website for help with either of those steps. Please note that filing a Summons and Complaint in an unlawful detainer case does not mean that the landlord can now get the property back. That is just the start of the case. Once the case has been completed and a landlord has a judgment from the court, then the landlord can go to Sheriff’s Court Services at their courthouse to schedule a lockout. The fee for the Sheriff’s lockout is $125.00. If you need a fee waiver for this fee and the fee for the Writ of Execution then you will need to complete a Fee Waiver application. Note: if you previously had a fee waiver granted, you still need to do a new one because it was only good up until the judgment. The Sheriff will instruct as to when the lock out will occur and when you need to show up with a locksmith (or bring your own kit to change locks).
