Should I send the service receipt back to the court?

After receiving the certificate from the people's court, the addressee shall sign for it and send it back to the court. However, at present, the court sends materials by registered mail or express delivery. If the delivery receipt is not sent back to the court, the court can also prove that the mail has been signed by the recipient by querying the receipt of the mail, or it can indicate that it has been delivered. The service receipt is a sign to check whether the public security and judicial organs serve the litigation documents in accordance with the legal methods and procedures, a sign that the addressee has completed the service task, a proof that the addressee accepts or refuses to accept the service documents, and a basis for determining whether the litigation actions of the parties and other participants in the litigation are effective.
