A: It sounds like you just need to put the name of the forms on the proof of service to let the court know what forms were served.

A: When you file a proof of service with the court, the proof of service has to specify what documents were served. Without seeing your proof or the court's rejection notice, it's impossible to tell you what you need to do. I can only assume that the proof you keep filing does not adequately identify or list all of the documents that were served.

A: Self help resources are available at your local law library and online at courts.ca.gov. Use them or hire a lawyer. More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue. The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney.
