ARIZONA Part 38

How do I reply to a Petition after it is served?

The reply to the Petition is made in a written document called the "Response." In the Response, the Respondent can agree with the requests that the Petitioner has made or ask for different orders from the court. The Response must be filed with the Clerk of Superior Court. The Respondent should have an original Response and at least two copies ready when filing with the Clerk of Superior Court. The clerk keeps the original in the court file and stamps copies as evidence of filing.
