Whether you are serving a commencement document or a non-commencement document, it is important to retain proof of service to confirm that the document was properly served. This could include a delivery receipt for email, a courier slip confirming delivery, or any other suitable method. Ensuring you have proof of service is crucial because the other party in the case has the right to defend themselves. If they claim that they were not properly served, it could delay or even derail your litigation process.
In divorce matters, proving service is especially critical. To proceed with a divorce, you are required to file an Affidavit of Service. This is a court document that provides proof that the commencement document was properly served on the other party. The Affidavit must be sworn by the person who served the documents and include the following details:
As per Rule 12.57, when serving a Statement of Claim for Divorce, Statement of Claim for Divorce and Division of Family Property, or Statement of Claim for Divorce and Division of Matrimonial Property, you must include a photograph of the person who was served as part of your proof of service.
