Give the documents to the other person
There are strict rules about how to give (serve) court documents to the other person (the law calls them the other party).
For an application to set aside an agreement, you must arrange for personal service of the documents by a third person. You can't serve the documents yourself. The person who serves the documents must be 19 or older, and can be:
- a professional process server, or
- a friend you ask to serve the documents for you.
Give the process server these documents:
- the Respondent's copy of your filed documents, including:
- the blank Reply (Form 3)
- the blank Financial Statement (Form 4), if needed
- the Proof of service copy of your filed documents
See Serve Provincial Court documents by personal service for how to serve a document and complete the Affidavit of Personal Service.
If you can't arrange for personal service, you must get a court order for alternative service (sometimes called substituted service). See Arrange for alternative (substitutional) service, or get help from a lawyer, such as family duty counsel.
