Small Claims Summons {CS-S 705.4}

CS-S 705.4 - SMALL CLAIMS SUMMONS This form is used in Illinois Circuit Courts and is issued when someone files a small claims case against another party. The plaintiff fills out the form with their name, the defendant's name, and the amount owed. The form notifies the defendant that they have been sued and must attend court on a specified date. If the defendant does not attend, the judge may decide the case without them, potentially resulting in a default judgment. The form includes instructions for serving the summons and complaint to the defendant, either by mail, sheriff, or special process server. Both the plaintiff and defendant must provide their contact information. The form also includes a section for the sheriff or process server to complete, verifying that the defendant has been served. www.FormsWorkflow.com
