You can fill out the CIV-130 form online using FormsPal's free PDF editor. Open the form in your browser and complete each section in a few minutes. Follow the steps below to create a ready-to-serve Notice of Entry of Judgment or Order.
Step 1: Click the orange "Get Form Now" button at the top of this page to open the civ 130 form in the FormsPal editor.
Step 2: The editing toolbar lets you enter text, check boxes, and sign the form. Use it to fill in every required field on the notice of entry.
Begin with the top section of the form. Enter the contact information for the attorney or the self-represented party, the court name, the case title, and the case number. Indicate whether the case is a limited or unlimited civil case.
In the "TO ALL PARTIES" section, state the type of entry (judgment, decree, or order) and enter the date it was entered by the court. Type or print the full name of the attorney or the party without an attorney and add your signature at the bottom of the first page.
Complete the Proof of Service by First-Class Mail section on page 2. The person serving the notice (not the attorney or a party to the case) must fill in this section. Enter the name of each party served, their street address, and the city, state, and zip code. State the date of mailing and the city and state from which the envelope was sent.
In the fields labeled "Name of person served," "Street address," and "City, State and zip code," enter the contact details of each party who received the civ 130 form. You can serve up to four parties on a single proof of service page. Attach additional proof of service sheets if more parties must be notified.
Review the case number in the upper-right corner and confirm it matches your court records. Check the form version at the bottom of page 2 (look for "CIV-130 [New January 1, 2005]") to make sure you are using the correct revision of the civ 130 notice of entry of judgment or order.
Step 3: Click "Done" when you have finished filling out the CIV-130 form. Download the completed PDF to your device or send it to an email address for printing and service.
Step 4: Save a copy of the completed civ 130 form for your records. FormsPal does not store or share your form data.
Tips for Completing the CIV-130 Form Correctly
- Attach a copy of the judgment, decree, or order to the notice before mailing it to all parties
- Never serve the civ 130 form yourself if you are a party to the action. A non-party must handle service and sign the proof of service
- Verify the court name and case number before printing. Errors on these fields can delay post-judgment proceedings
- Keep your signed proof of service on file after filing with the court clerk. You may need it if the opposing party disputes receipt of the notice
