12-2405. Notice; form of notice
Upon the filing of an application as provided in section 12-2404, the justice of the
peace or clerk of any superior court shall issue a notice directed to any party against
whom any provisional remedy would operate substantially in the following form:
"NOTICE
You are hereby notified that your (property) may be taken away from you by (party
seeking provisional remedy), who says that you owe (such party) a debt of $(amount).
(Party seeking provisional remedy), your creditor, wants to take your property so that
(such party) can be sure you will pay if the court decides that you owe money to (party
seeking provisional remedy). If you do not want to have your property taken away, you may
ask for a hearing before a court. You may ask for the hearing anytime in the next ten
days. The hearing will take place within five working days after you ask for it. You
may ask for the hearing by checking the box at the bottom of this notice and filing it
with the court or division of the court, at the following address: (address of court or
division of the court). You must also send a copy to (party seeking provisional remedy)
at (address), so that (such party) knows you want the hearing. At the hearing the court
will decide whether the claim against you is probably valid and whether other legal
requirements have been met. If you do not check the box requesting a date for a hearing
and take this notice to the court within ten days, the court will automatically assume
you do not want a hearing and you will lose your right to a hearing. Then (party seeking
provisional remedy) may take your property with the court's permission."
