do?
You are now ready to file in court and get the defendant

Make two copies of
everything (one for you and one for the defendant);
File the original
documents at your local court;
Pay the required
fee or submit the Request for Exemption from Payment of Fees, TF-920; Adobe

Get two copies of
the summons and standing order back from the clerk (one copy is for you and one
for the defendant);
Put together the
defendant's packet, which is a copy of everything you filed plus the summons
and standing order. Serve the defendant either by certified mail/return receipt/restricted
delivery OR process server. Please read the information about serving the
opposing party. If you have an unusual situation, please see more on this page
for more information about serving people. You may also find How to Serve a
