Summons

SUMMONS. This form is used in the state of Wyoming, specifically in divorce cases. It is issued by the court to notify the defendant (the spouse being sued for divorce) that they have been served with a Complaint for Divorce. The Summons requires the defendant to file an answer to the Complaint within 20 days of service (or 30 days if served outside of Wyoming). If the defendant fails to respond within the designated time frame, the court may issue a default judgment in favor of the plaintiff. The form includes a section for the sheriff or a non-party person to certify the service of the Summons, which is required to be completed as proof that the defendant was properly served. The sheriff or person serving the Summons provides details such as the date of service, the recipient’s name, and the fees associated with the service. If someone other than the sheriff serves the Summons, an Affidavit of Service is included to verify the service was completed correctly. www.FormsWorkflow.com
