Process servers: know your rights
If a creditor decides to bring a lawsuit against you to try to collect a debt, it will typically hire a law firm. The law firm will have a legal process server deliver (serve) legal papers to notify you that you are being sued.
New York law is clear about how these legal documents must be served if you are being sued. A process server can:

deliver a summons directly to you
deliver a summons to an appropriate substitute person at your home or place of business and then mail the summons to you

If the above options fail after several attempts, the process server can post the summons on the door of your home or workplace and also mail it to you.

 

What should I do if I am served?

If you are served with legal papers, you must respond, even if you do not believe that you owe anything. If you fail to respond, the court will enter a default judgment against you. The creditor may be able to freeze your bank account or take money out of your wages. 

 

What if I think I have not been properly served?

Report any suspicious activity to our office. We have found that some process-service companies claim to have served documents to individuals, but never did. This is fraud that concerns the Attorney General.

 

What if I have a default judgment entered against me?

To remove (vacate) a default judgment, you must make an application to the court that entered the judgment. Consult an attorney for help with this application.

Alegato oral en apelaciones civiles | California Courts | Self Help Guide
El alegato está abierto al público, por lo que no necesita un permiso especial para ir.

En el alegato oral

Normalmente, las personas comienzan su alegato oral en la corte de apelaciones con las palabras "Con la venia de la corte". Si quiere reservar tiempo para responder a la otra parte, tiene que comunicárselo a la corte inmediatamente. Aunque la corte de apelaciones no puede darle un trato especial por el mero hecho de no tener abogado, debe comunicar a los jueces que se autorrepresenta.
Los jueces estarán familiarizados con su caso y ya habrán leído sus escritos, por lo que no necesita volver a exponer los hechos del caso ni repetir partes del escrito. Es más útil limitarse a destacar lo que considere más importante de su caso o preguntar a los jueces si tienen alguna pregunta que usted pueda responder. Los jueces pueden interrumpirle (y también a la otra parte) para hacerle preguntas sobre su caso y la jurisprudencia (decisiones publicadas de la corte, constituciones, estatutos, reglas de la corte u otros precedentes legales) que usted citó o debería haber citado.
Mantenga la calma y hable con respeto aunque se frustre o le interrumpan. Siempre que le hagan una pregunta, debe detener lo que está diciendo y responder lo más directamente posible. Si no sabe la respuesta, dígalo.

Request an interpreter | California Courts | Self Help Guide
Court Interpreters are provided free of charge
You must request an interpreter in advance
Ask the court to provide an interpreter as soon as you find out that you need to go to court
Court interpreters must follow specific rules for what they can and can’t do

They must interpret what is being said in the courtroom into your language and interpret your words into English

They must keep all communications between you and your lawyer confidential

They must disclose any conflicts of interest they may have with your case

They cannot give you legal advice

Court interpreters cannot typically provide services outside of the courtroom
Some courts have interpreters available in their Self-Help Centers to assist with interpretation outside of the courtroom. You can contact your court’s Self-Help Center to find out if this is available at your court.
Only qualified court interpreters can interpret court proceedings
You are usually not allowed to have a friend or relative who speaks English to serve as the interpreter for you in the courtroom. However, if you will need help outside of the courtroom with getting information or filling out forms, you may get help from a friend or relative who speaks English

How to request an interpreter

Visit the Language Access page of your court’s website
The procedure for requesting an interpreter varies from one court to another. Your court’s website will list the steps required by your specific court to request an interpreter.  
Here is some information you should look for on your court’s website so you can understand your court’s requirements: 

Does my court require advanced notice for an interpreter to be present? 

What form does my court use for requesting an interpreter? (Most courts use Request for an Interpreter (Civil) (form INT-300) but others use a different form.) 

Does my court allow for interpreter requests to be made online or by email? 

How do I find my court's website? 
Use the Find My Court to quickly access your court’s language access information 

Fill out the form
If your court requires a form to request an interpreter, your next step is to complete the form. The form is available in many languages but must be filled out in English.  Many courts use the Request for Interpreter (Civil) (form INT-300).

Respondent’s Brief – California Appellate Courts
The Statement of Facts can only mention facts or evidence presented in the trial court and included in the record on appeal.
What the respondent needs to consider. The appellant’s opening brief is required to include a Statement of Facts. The respondent should carefully review the appellant’s version to be sure it’s correct. The appellant’s Statement of Facts may not include or may misrepresent historical facts that would support the trial court’s decision.
If the respondent totally agrees with the appellant’s version, then they are not required to include a new Statement of Facts in the respondent’s brief. The respondent can simply include a heading for Statement of the Facts in the brief and write a sentence that says they agree with the appellant’s Statement of the Facts.
However most respondents do include a Statement of Facts to tell their side of the case in a way that supports the judgment or appealable order.   
 
 Argument (required) The argument is the most important part of the respondent’s brief. Here the respondent argues that the appellant’s argument is wrong and the trial court’s decision is right.

The respondent does several things in the argument: 

Respond to the legal issues in the appellant’s opening brief (required)
The respondent carefully reviews the legal arguments in the appellant’s opening brief. The respondent’s brief should address all the legal issues raised by the appellant. The respondent should discuss each legal issue in the same order, with the same title and the same number that the appellant used. For each legal issue, the respondent must include a statement of law that shows why the appellant is wrong.
Even if the appellant proves the trial court made a legal mistake, the respondent can argue that the mistake did not cause enough harm or “prejudice” for there to be a retrial or a reversal of the judgment.

Include legal authorities that prove the trial court was right (required)
The respondent’s argument must include a reference to a legal authority for every statement of law arguing why the appellant’s argument is wrong and the trial court’s decision is right.

Common Questions:

 Can I can file a petition for review in the California Supreme Court if I did not file a petition for rehearing in the Court of Appeal? Yes. You can petition for review in the California Supreme Court without petitioning for rehearing in the Court of Appeal. You can wait to file the petition for review until the Court of Appeal decision becomes final, which is generally 30 days after the court issues its opinion. If you file a petition for review before the Court of Appeal’s decision becomes final, the clerk of the California Supreme Court will hold the petition and file it the day after the Court of Appeal decision becomes final. Note that if the Court of Appeal made a legal mistake that you do not challenge with a petition for rehearing, the California Supreme Court will accept that the statement of facts and issues are correct in the Court of Appeal’s decision.
 
 How will the California Supreme Court get a record of my case? When the Court of Appeal receives a copy of your petition for review, it automatically sends the record on appeal for your case to the California Supreme Court. You do not need to file a request to send the record to the Supreme Court.
 
 If the California Supreme Court reviews my case but I do not like the decision, can I appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court? Decisions of the California Supreme Court are final unless they involve questions of federal law. If a decision does involve an issue of federal law, you may seek review in the U.S. Supreme Court. Like the California Supreme Court, the U.S. Supreme Court is not required to hear every case.
 
 Who needs to receive a copy of the petition for review? When do I serve the petition for review?
