2005 California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 412.10-412.30 CHAPTER 3. SUMMONS

412.10.  After payment of all applicable fees, the plaintiff may
have the clerk issue one or more summons for any defendant. The clerk
shall keep each original summons in the court records and provide a
copy of each summons issued to the plaintiff who requested issuance
of the summons.
412.20.  (a) Except as otherwise required by statute, a summons
shall be directed to the defendant, signed by the clerk and issued
under the seal of the court in which the action is pending, and it
shall contain:
   (1) The title of the court in which the action is pending.
   (2) The names of the parties to the action.
   (3) A direction that the defendant file with the court a written
pleading in response to the complaint within 30 days after summons is
served on him or her.
   (4) A notice that, unless the defendant so responds, his or her
default will be entered upon application by the plaintiff, and the
plaintiff may apply to the court for the relief demanded in the
complaint, which could result in garnishment of wages, taking of
money or property, or other relief.
   (5) The following statement in boldface type:  "You may seek the
advice of an attorney in any matter connected with the complaint or
this summons.  Such attorney should be consulted promptly so that
your pleading may be filed or entered within the time required by
this summons."
   (6) The following introductory legend at the top of the summons
above all other matter, in boldface type, in English and Spanish:
   "Notice!  You have been sued.  The court may decide against you
without your being heard unless you respond within 30 days.  Read
information below."
   (b) Each county may, by ordinance, require that the legend
contained in paragraph (6) of subdivision (a) be set forth in every
summons issued out of the courts of that county in any additional
foreign language, if the legend in the additional foreign language is
set forth in the summons in the same manner as required in that
paragraph.
   (c) A summons in a form approved by the Judicial Council is deemed
to comply with this section.
412.30.  In an action against a corporation or an unincorporated
association (including a partnership), the copy of the summons that
is served shall contain a notice stating in substance:  "To the
person served:  You are hereby served in the within action (or
special proceeding) on behalf of (here state the name of the
corporation or the unincorporated association) as a person upon whom
a copy of the summons and of the complaint may be delivered to effect
service on said party under the provisions of (here state
appropriate provisions of Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 413.10)
of the Code of Civil Procedure)."  If service is also made on such
person as an individual, the notice shall also indicate that service
is being made on such person as an individual as well as on behalf of
the corporation or the unincorporated association.
   If such notice does not appear on the copy of the summons served,
no default may be taken against such corporation or unincorporated
association or against such person individually, as the case may be.
