中文说明与使用指南 / Chinese Explanation & How to Use

这是什么?
这是马萨诸塞州法院系统设立的“法庭服务中心”(Court Service Center)。专门帮助那些没有聘请律师的当事人,了解法院的程序、表格怎么填、怎么提交文件、流程是什么等程序性信息。

为什么有两页纸?
一页是英文,一页是西班牙文(不是法文)。马萨诸塞州有大量西班牙语人口,法院通常会提供双语材料,方便不同语言的人使用。内容基本一致。

重要免责声明(必须理解):

怎么充分利用它?

  1. 确认自己是否符合条件:目前是不是自助当事人(没有律师代理)。
  2. 当面去:地址在格林菲尔德(离阿默斯特不远)。周一到周四上午和下午开放,周五只到中午。先到先服务,不用预约。带上所有相关文件(法院通知、表格、证据等)。
  3. 远程联系:发邮件到 greenfieldcsc@jud.state.ma.us,或发短信到 413-376-5065。说明你是谁、案件大概情况、具体想问什么程序问题。
  4. 准备问题:问具体操作,比如“我要怎么回应这个申请?”“这个表格该填哪一栏?”“下一步流程是什么?”。不要问“我能不能赢”“对方这样对不对”。
  5. 注意保密问题:因为不保密且可能帮双方,说话时谨慎,重要策略性内容最好先咨询真正的律师。

格林菲尔德属于富兰克林县,阿默斯特属于汉普郡县,但这类服务中心通常可以协助周边区域的程序问题。具体是否适用你的案件,建议直接联系确认。

This is an official Massachusetts Trial Court resource for self-represented litigants. Always read the disclaimers carefully. It is not a substitute for a lawyer.

Subject: Request for procedural information – Self-represented party (Jingsong Deng / Terry Deng)

Dear Greenfield Court Service Center,

I am writing to request procedural information as a self-represented party. I do not currently have an attorney.

My name is Jingsong Deng (also known as Terry Deng). I live in the Amherst, MA area and have matters involving the Massachusetts courts (including child support enforcement-related issues that may connect to Hampshire County).

I would like guidance on the following procedural questions:
1. How to properly respond to or file documents in a cross-border child support enforcement matter.
2. What forms are required and how they should be completed and submitted.
3. The correct next steps and timelines under Massachusetts procedure for a self-represented party in this type of case.
4. Whether your center can assist with reviewing the procedural completeness of documents I already have.

I understand that you provide legal information about procedure only, not legal advice, that communications are not confidential, and that you can assist both parties in a case.

Please let me know the best way to proceed (email with documents, phone/text, or in-person visit). I am available during your regular hours.

Thank you for your assistance.

Sincerely,
Jingsong Deng (Terry Deng)
Amherst, MA
