Affidavits of Service
The courts may still be closed to the general public, however at Alert Level 3 we anticipate the ability of our Process servers to get access to the court registrars for the swearing of affidavits.
To assist us where possible we are asking for a photograph of the Respondent (primarily for family proceedings) to accompany the affidavit where we have been unable to ask for an acknowledgement of service.
