The answer depends on whose summons you have received. If your board has sent you a summons, apparently the board believes that you are in violation of your governing documents. The summons should detail this alleged violation, and further, detail your response options.

A writ of summons is a paper issuing out of a court (writ) which calls upon someone to appear (it summons them). In some jurisdictions, civil actions are started by presenting a writ to the court which is then served upon the defendant. The writ will state the basis in fact and law of the complaint. If for some reason the plaintiff (the person with the complaint, the person who starts the lawsuit) afterwards feels the statement of fact and law is insufficient he can have it changed, or amended. The writ of summons will then become an amended writ of summons.
