Re: reponsive declaration to order to show cause
Provided you filed and served your papers timely and properly, yes he is required to serve you with a response.
California Code of Civil Procedure section 1005 provides that all responsive papers shall be filed with the Court and served on each party at least nine court days prior to the hearing.
You are then allowed to file a reply to the response provided that is filed and served at least five court days before the hearing.
