Best Answer

There are many different types of civil lawsuits and the type of suit often determines what you need to do to officially file. Normally though you need to 1) file the complaint, 2) pay any applicable fees and 3) serve notice on the opposing party or parties.

For more information that is specific to your situation, a good place to start is Court Reference! There are all kinds of self-help links so depending on whether you're filing a small claims case, landlord/tenant, etc., you should be able to find lots of good information.
