Defendant(s)
From The State of New Jersey To The Defendant(s) Named Above:
The plaintiff, named above, has filed a lawsuit against you in the Superior Court of New Jersey. The complaint
attached to this summons states the basis for this lawsuit. If you dispute this complaint, you or your attorney must file a
written answer or motion and proof of service with the deputy clerk of the Superior Court in the county listed above
within 35 days from the date you received this summons, not counting the date you received it. (A directory of the
addresses of each deputy clerk of the Superior Court is available in the Civil Division Management Office in the county
listed above and online at http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/pro se/10153_deptyclerklawref.pdf.) If the complaint is one in
foreclosure, then you must file your written answer or motion and proof of service with the Clerk of the Superior Court,
Hughes Justice Complex, P.O. Box 971, Trenton, NJ 08625-0971. A filing fee payable to the Treasurer, State of New
Jersey and a completed Case Information Statement (available from the deputy clerk of the Superior Court) must
accompany your answer or motion when it is filed. You must also send a copy of your answer or motion to plaintiff's
attorney whose name and address appear above, or to plaintiff, if no attorney is named above. A telephone call will not

Information Statement) if you want the court to hear your defense.
If you do not file and serve a written answer or motion within 35 days, the court may enter a judgment against
you for the relief plaintiff demands, plus interest and costs of suit. If judgment is entered against you, the Sheriff may
seize your money, wages or property to pay all or part of the judgment.

Peter Ochlan NOTIFICATIÓN DE DEMANDA
DE: El Estado de Nueva Jersey al demandado (a los) demandado(s) nombrado(s) arriba:
El demandante, nombrado arriba, ha presentado una demanda contra usted en el Tribunal Superior de New Jersey.
La demanda, que se adjunta a esta notificación, describe la base para esta acción civil judicial. Si usted disputa esta demanda,
usted o su abogado debe presentar una contestación escrita o un pedimento (una moción), y prueba de notificación ante el
subsecretario del Tribunal Superior (Deputy Clerk of the Superior Court) en el condado indicado arriba dentro de los 35 días a
partir de la fecha en que recibió esta notificación, sin contar la fecha en que la recibió. (Las direcciones de cada uno de los
subsecretarios del Tribunal Superior pueden obtenerse de la Oficina Administrativa de la División Civil en el condado
indicado arriba y en línea en http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/prose/10153_deptyclerklawref_spn.pdf). Si la demanda es para
una ejecución hipotecaria, entonces deberá presentar su contestación escrita o el pedimento y la prueba de notificación ante el
Secretario del Tribunal Superior (Clerk of the Superior Court), Hughes Justice Complex, P.O. Box 971, Trenton, NJ 08625-
0971. Su contestación o moción debe ir acompañada de una tasa de presentación pagadera al tesorero (Treasurer, State of New
Jersey) y del formulario lleno llamado Declaración Informativa sobre la Causa (Case Information Statement), que se puede
obtener del subsecretario del Tribunal Superior. Además, deberá enviar una copia de su contestación o moción al abogado del
demandante cuyo nombre y dirección figura arriba, o al demandante, si no figura arriba el nombre de ningún abogado. Una
llamada telefónica no protegerá sus derechos, así que deberá presentar al Tribunal y notificar una contestación escrita o
moción (con la tasa judicial de $175 dólares y la Declaración Informativa sobre la Causa debidamente llenada) si usted quiere
que el juez oiga su defensa.
Si usted no presenta y notifica una contestación escrita o un pedimento dentro de los 35 días, el juez puede fallar
contra usted por la compensación exigida por el demandante, más intereses y costas. Si se asienta un fallo en contra suya, el
Alguacil puede confiscar su dinero, sueldos o propiedades para pagar, en su totalidad o en parte, el fallo contra usted.
Si no puede pagar a un abogado, puede llamar a la oficina de Servicios Legales del condado donde vive o al número
directo de todo el estado para servicios legales (Legal Services of New Jersey Statewide Hotline), 1-888-LSNJ-LAW (1-888-
576-5529). Si no tiene abogado y no reúne las condiciones necesarias para recibir ayuda legal gratis, puede llamar a alguno de
los Servicios de Referencia (Lawyer Referral Services) para que lo remitan a un abogado. En la Oficina Administrativa de la
División Civil del condado indicado arriba puede obtener una guía con información para comunicarse con las Oficinas de
Servicios Legales y las de los Servicios de Referencia de Abogados y también puede obtenerla en línea en
