### Before you send

- Send the final, signed PDF. Some clerks want an ink signature on paper filings, so the desk checks before the run.
- We print two sets: one to file and one for the clerk to stamp "filed" and hand back.
- Court fees are paid at the window to "Treasurer, State of New Jersey" and billed to you at cost.
- A motion is generally filed and served at least 16 days before the hearing date it asks for.
- You get a scan of the stamped copy the same day it's filed.
- Serving the other parties is a separate job unless you add it.
- We file the papers you send. We don't review them for legal content or give legal advice.
- If you are representing yourself, you are responsible for the content and accuracy of the documents you give us to file, and any mistakes in them are yours to correct. MCC Solutions does not guarantee any legal outcome.
