Re: Knowing which is proposed jugment and which isn't

The Court does not usually prepare and sign the "Proposed Judgement, Findings etc..

The party or person who prepares the documents "Notices" the other party; and then "Submits" the docs to the Court for signature.

The preparer must identify themself on the docs.

Good luck,
