Notices
Notice is a formal, written or a printed announcement for the group of people. It is written in a very precise language avoiding any extra details. Basically, notices are a tool of disseminating information regarding any occasion or issues. They reach a large number of people in less time, that is why they are precise and brief in nature. Notice is the legal concept describing a requirement that a party be aware of legal process affecting their rights, obligations or duties. There are several types of notice: public notice (or legal notice), actual notice, constructive notice, and implied notice. At common law, notice is the fundamental principle in service of process. In this case, the service of process puts the defendant “on notice” of the allegations contained within the complaint, or other such pleading. Since notice is fundamental, a court may rule a pleading defective if it does not put the defendant on notice.
