A.Dear Client,
A step petition is a legal document filed in court to request that the court take certain steps to ensure that the respondent is served with the summons and other court documents. This is typically done when the respondent cannot be served by ordinary means, such as through regular mail or personal service. In your case, since the respondent has not been receiving the summons for over a year, the court has ordered you to file a step petition. This petition will outline the steps that you have taken to try to serve the respondent, and it will also request that the court take alternative measures to ensure that the respondent is served.
