Re: notice of hearing

If the defendant party has already waived further service, there should be no need to now have copies of these documents served upon him or her for purposes of the Ore Tenus hearing. However, if such is not the case, then you will need to have them properly served upon this defendant party in a manner which meets he requirements of Virginia law and which could be by certified mail with return receipt requested or by having them personally served upon the defendant or at his/her residence by a person age 18 or older who is a disinterested party.
