Ex Parte Application For Issuance Of Letter Rogatory {SC-4020}

SC-4020 - EX PARTE APPLICATION FOR ISSUANCE OF LETTER ROGATORY FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN MEXICO, ORDER THEREON. This form is used in cases where a petitioner seeks to serve legal documents (such as a summons and petition) on a respondent who resides in Mexico. The application requests that the court issue a Letter Rogatory, which is a formal request for judicial assistance from the courts in Mexico to serve these documents in accordance with the Inter-American Convention on Letters Rogatory. This process is necessary when a respondent cannot be served through traditional methods due to their residency in another country. The petitioner must provide details about the case, such as the nature of the petition (e.g., dissolution of marriage, legal separation, custody, or support of a minor child) and the respondent's last known address in Mexico. The petitioner or their attorney declares under penalty of perjury that the respondent is a necessary party to the case and that the only viable method of service is through the requested Letter Rogatory. If the court approves, the judge will issue the Letter Rogatory, allowing the legal documents to be served in Mexico with the assistance of Mexican judicial authorities. www.FormsWorkflow.com
