* The litigant must attach a copy of the document they want to file to the form.
* The litigant must state the reasons why they believe the filing has merit. This means that they must explain why they believe they have a valid legal claim and why they believe they are likely to succeed in court.
* The litigant must state the reasons why they believe the filing is not being made to harass or cause a delay. This means that they must explain why they are not filing the document in order to annoy or inconvenience the other party to the case, or to delay the resolution of the case.
