I have yet to file the return of service -- of the 6 summons and complaints I mailed out on 5/17/06, I just received 2 return receipts as of 5/24/06.
I believe you file the original, but I am not sure, I will take copies as well as the original to the court when I file. Hope this helps.

Balto.
P.S. Are you in Maryland as well?
I saw MohamedX2's answer to your Q as well, he maybe right since he has done it already.

sakun said:Hello Friends,
I just wanted to give some update on my meetings with different lawyers in Houston.
My timeline
Citizenship Application - Dec 2004
Fingerprinting - Feb 2005
Interview - Mar 2005
Name check still pending.
I just feel more comfortable going through a lawyer, just because my schedule is a killer and don't want to miss anything or make a mistake.
Over the last six weeks I have met over 5 lawyers and almost all of them had very discouraging words.
'Don't do it', 'Just wait it out', 'It might ruin your chances', 'INS doesnt like pople filing lawsuits'
It seemed some of them were just scared to file a case against the govt.
Yesterday I met a lawyer who had actually filed a case in Houston last year. His was approved before it even went to the court. As per him if you have applied for US CITIZENSHIP AND WAITING FOR NAME CHECK APPROVAL, THEN THE LAW IS 100% ON YOUR SIDE.
Also, federal courts are very different from state or district courts. THE JUDGE WONT LET THE GOVT. LAWYERS DELAY THE CASE. You just need to make sure all your paperwork is in order. Also the cases in federal court move at a fast pace so you or your lawyer will have to be on top of it all the time.
Anyways, I am scheduled to meet the another lawyer next week who has done a multiple cases like this. Hopefuly he will take my case and I will be able to file soon.
Will keep you posted.
Good Luck!

I am also from Houston, be very careful with some of the lawyers here. I would advise you to check the pacer website for the Houston court and see if the lawyer really won these cases. I had a friend used a very prominent attorney Bruce Coane & Associates, Bruce Coane promised everything, he even said he won recent cases, charged $3500.00 to start, then billed hourly for every call or email to him, case is still pending going to trial and $9000.00 expense. He checked on pacer and the attorney only won one case for WOM.
Just be careful buddy, they say anything to get you to sign that agreement, then you are doomed. I should complete my WOM this week and filing next week.

Feel free to drop me a line, I am also in the learning process, so let's help each other. This is what this forum is all about. Not many people from MD here, or at least not many are talkinggzmbk1 said:BAlto I'm in Maryland as well.
I think I'm in the same boat as you are. I'm new to this forum and I've just filed my a lawsuit by mail with the US district court in Baltimore. My justification was the 1447(b).
I had my interview 2 years ago, and no oath letter.
Since you're ahead of me hopefully you don't mind me asking you a couple of questions here and there.
Regards

Don't worry too much about it. Nevertheless, it is USCIS. It does everything in its UNIQUE way.

which district?pharmboy said:When I called the Court, they specifically mentioned that they need the original documents for certificate of service.
pharmboy said:The message before this was that they reponsed to my inquiry in February 2006. My case has been pending since march 2003. I filed WOM in early April this year, and the US attorny is supposed to file an answer by mid June. So I guess they are working on my case? I hope this is real.
Eastbayer said:They should be working on your case. And this seems to be the only way to get them to work.
Good luck
