Prepare and Serve Reply Affidavit(s)
Prepare any Reply Affidavits
If the other person responded to your application and raised new facts or issues in their Affidavit that you'd like to address, you can file a Reply Affidavit (Form F30). If you don't need to file a Reply Affidavit you can go straight to Step 6.
In your Reply Affidavit (Form F30), respond only to those new issues or facts that you haven't already addressed in your earlier Affidavit to support the application. Your responding Affidavit must contain:
- a description of who you are, and
- your response to the new facts or issues raised in the other person's Affidavit.
Serve and file any Reply Affidavits
You must serve your Reply Affidavit within 3 business days after the other person served you their Application Response. If they served you on a Tuesday, you must serve your Reply Affidavit by the Friday of that week.
You must file your Reply Affidavit by 4pm on the day that is 2 business days before the hearing. For example, if the hearing is Friday, you must file it with the court registry by Wednesday at 4pm.
