Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Ex parte in Civil Law?
Hello.
When requesting an ex parte and it is placed on the calendar, do I need to serve the other party the documents I plan to file with the court for the ex parte?
Please advise.
Thanks

It depends on the court. Most do not, but some do require it and that it be filed the day before the hearing. I would check your local rules or consult an attorney.

In addition to what Mr. Russakow says, you must hand a copy to the other side on the day of the hearing, and you have to give them notice usually before 10 a.m. the day before. There are other requirements, too. So make sure you're up to speed on everything you need to do. If you don't cross your t's and dot your i's, you might lose out.
