The divorce court, which sued for the second time, called and said that it was a short message that the court session had not been received.

Dear, let me answer for you: under normal circumstances, the court will not notify the parties by SMS, but if the case is a summary procedure,

It can also be done by SMS, telephone, fax, etc. At the same time, the court also needs to send legal documents to me in writing after they are issued, otherwise they will have no legal effect. Therefore, the parties must check with the court after receiving the notice of hearing.

Legal analysis

There are many ways to serve summons stipulated by law, and the common ones are: telephone service, judicial express service, door-to-door service and announcement service. Of course, when the court issues a summons to the defendant for the first time, it usually calls the parties first and gets a written summons from the court. Legal documents issued by the people's court to the parties, including subpoenas, notices, rulings, judgments, etc. , shall be delivered to me in writing, unless I agree to deliver it in other ways. If no one can be found, it should also be served by announcement (newspaper, court announcement), otherwise it will have no legal effect. The so-called SMS or other mobile communication software may be fraudulent information, and callers should also check the real court phone number for verification before calling. According to the law, the parties shall be notified by summons three days before the court session, and the defendant may reply in writing or in court after receiving the complaint. In today's practice, some courts try simple cases, and they can also call the parties to appear in court.
