If you are requesting documents to be produced (Subpoena Duces Tecum), you must submit an original request plus two copies for each service requested. An additional Clerk's fee as is required per request as well as Sheriff's fee per request.

Summons to Answer Interrogatories will retain the original case number of the Motion for Judgment unless the action is requested on a Foreign Judgment in which case a Court tracking number will be assigned.
