How long do I have to respond to a foreclosure notice in NY?

Carl E. Person

When a person is sued for foreclosure, they receive a summons and complaint, and a person has 20 days in which to answer by filing an answer in court. So, you have a 20 day period after the service of a summons and complaint. There are some exceptions that make it a little bit longer, but don't rely on exceptions. Think of 20 days. And that's not 20 business days, it's 20 days. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

What is the Arizona divorce process?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the divorce process goes as follows. A petitioner would file a complaint with the Superior Court of Arizona. After filing that complaint, they would serve the respondent, or the other spouse, at which time that person would have 20 days to file a response to the petition for dissolution of marriage. If the person does not file a response, the parties can be divorced in 60 days pursuant to a default decree. If, however, the person files a response, the case will follow a normal trajectory in the Superior Court which could include a settlement conference, arbitration or in some cases, although not many, trial.
