Different Types of Forms

Judicial Council Forms
The Judicial Council of California has adopted forms for mandatory use and approved forms for optional use. These forms are available online at http://www.courts.ca.gov.

The Judicial Council has provided a guide on Using Forms and
the Basics of Court Forms.

Local Forms
Many counties provide local forms for specific matters. Local forms will be located on your court’s website. Local forms for San Bernardino County are located at http://www.sbcounty.gov/courts/. Fillable versions of the
local San Bernardino County Forms are available from the San Bernardino County Bar Association.

Central District Court Forms (Federal)
Federal Forms of the Central District of California can be located at http://www.cacd.uscourts.gov/CACD/Forms.nsf/Forms.

You can search for forms from all Federal and State Courts at http://www.uscourtforms.com/.

What happens if there is no judicial council form for my situation?

There may not always be a pre-printed Judicial Council form for your particular legal need. In situations where there is no Judicial Council form you will need to draft or create your own legal form on pleading paper.

See California Rules of Court, starting with rule 2.100, for details on what is required for any documents you file with the court.

Pleading paper is available at the law library or through Microsoft Word. You can download it by clicking here.
To access a sample pleading on Microsoft Word go to file and select new document then search templates for “pleading.” Select the pleading form you need.

For California Superior Courts use the template for pleading with 28 lines. Sample pleading forms can be located at the law library in practice guides such as the Forms of Pleading and Practice.
