Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

sanctions hearing

Local rules require defendants must be served timely

or santions many be imposed or the case dismissed, as

I understand. After a defendant has been served by

publication, what proceedure or form (other than the

CERIFICAT OF PUBLICATION) is filed for the court to

recognize this service.

Another question whether speeking to the presiding

Superior Judge is possible to facilitate when

plaintiff is brain damaged (bi-frontal an bi-lateral).

Re: sanctions hearing

First, proof of publication must be filed with the Court. This is generally obtained from the company that published the summons for you.

After sufficient time has passed you will then file a Request for Entry of Default.

If you need representation I would be happy to discuss this matter with you.

Re: sanctions hearing

You need to file a request to enter default if the other party has not answered within 30 days once the service by publication was complete. Is the brain damage related to this matter?
