Will the court session be notified by SMS?

Usually not. Legal documents issued by the people's court to the parties, including subpoenas, notices, rulings, judgments, etc. , should be sent to me in writing, unless I agree to send it by other means. If no one can be found, it should also be served by announcement (newspaper, court announcement), otherwise it will not have legal effect.

First, the method of distinguishing between true and false SMS notifications

1, look at the sending number. The SMS number sent by the court is 12368 (national unified litigation service hotline).

2. Look at the case number. For example, the filing number of Xinghua People's Court is (year) Su/KOOC-0/28/KOOC-0/penalty XXX, (year) Su/KOOC-0/28/citizen XXX, (year) Su/KOOC-0/28/execution XXX, etc.

3. Look at the cause of action. The cause of action in the litigation materials served by the court shall be determined according to the relevant laws and regulations.

4. Look at the content of the material. The short message sent by the people's court contains a link and a verification code. The receiver can open the link, copy and paste the verification code, and query all relevant certificate information. In general, the materials served by the court include: a copy of the complaint, evidence materials, court summons, notice of proof, notice of responding to the lawsuit, etc. And affix the official seal of the court to the litigation materials, and clearly inform the judge in charge of the case.

To sum up, the notice of hearing will not be notified by SMS, but will be delivered in written form. Only with the written consent of both parties can SMS be notified. The so-called SMS or QQ information may be fraudulent information, and the caller should check the real court phone number first, and then call to verify.
