Documents generally need to be notarized if they transfer ownership, grant legal authority, or require sworn statements. This process prevents fraud and ensures all parties are signing of their own free will

Happy Father’s Day

The "Everyday Hero":The DAD

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea, The generous soul of nature, The comforting arm of night, The wisdom of the ages, The power of the eagle's flight, The joy of a morning in spring, The faith of a mustard seed, The patience of eternity, The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities, When there was nothing more to add, He knew His masterpiece was complete, And so, He called it... Dad.

This is as cozy as I could get these two by summer's end they'll be the best of pals

3 Steps to Respond to a Summons1.

Check Your DeadlineYour deadline depends on the court and the state, but it is typically 20 to 30 days from the date you were served. Missing this deadline means you automatically lose the case.2. Draft Your ResponseYou will receive a Complaint or Petition that lists numbered allegations against you. You must respond to every single numbered paragraph using one of these three options:Admit: You agree the statement is 100% true.Deny: You state the allegation is false.Lack of Knowledge: You don't have enough information to confirm or deny it.Note: Deny or state you lack knowledge for most claims; admitting to everything means you automatically lose the case.After responding to the claims, you will list your Affirmative Defenses. These are legal reasons why you shouldn't win the case (e.g., the statute of limitations has expired or the debt isn't yours).3. File and Serve the DocumentsFile with the Court: Deliver your original Answer to the clerk of the court listed on the summons. You may need to pay a filing fee, or you can ask for a fee waiver if you cannot afford it.Serve the Plaintiff: You must mail or deliver a copy of your filed Answer to the plaintiff or their attorney.
