Note 3. Effective September 1, 2002, the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court, Civil Division, will no longer forward notices to effect services by publication to the Daily Court Reporter or collect the Daily Court Reporter's fees. It will be the sole responsibility of the filer to forward a Common Pleas Court time-stamped copy to the Daily Court Reporter.

Upon receipt, the notice will be sized and measured. A proof copy of the notice will be faxed to the filer along with the publication fee. The filer is responsible for proofing the notice and notifying the Daily Court Reporter of corrections and remitting payment to the Daily Court Reporter. Once payment is received in full, the Daily Court Reporter will place the notice in the next edition. The filer will receive a copy of the ad after the first publication. The Daily Court Reporter will forward to the Common Pleas Court, a notarized proof of publication.

This change in procedure concerns publication of notices for service by publication only. There is no change in the publication of notice of Sheriff's sale procedure. Sheriff's sale notices will continue to be sent by the Sheriff to the Dayton Daily News or the Daily Court Reporter.
