Court Permission For Service

Summary

In Ontario, form 15A is used to request court permission for substituted service when a party cannot be located. You must provide details of the person you propose to serve, such as a family member. If the person is not affiliated with the party, further court guidance is needed. For commercial real estate matters, finding free or low-cost legal help can be challenging. Consider reaching out to law schools or the Lawyer Referral Service by the Law Society of Ontario. If facing financial hardship, you can apply for a fee waiver for court fees.
