How do I obtain a letter rogatory?

You must make an application to the court on notice to the parties in order to obtain a commission or letter rogatory. See Rule 4:12-3. Your application must include a proposed order. Once the judge has issued an order for a letter rogatory, send a copy of the order, the letter rogatory, and the $35.00 fee to the Superior Court Clerk’s Office in Trenton for processing. The Clerk of the Superior Court will sign the letter, affix and emboss a seal.
