The earliest party submits its pleading to the court registry for the purpose of setting the date of the hearing. It shall attach the documents on which it bases its request and a plan of the premises. It shall also attach the pleading and exhibits received from the other party.

The pleadings and exhibits may be submitted in the original or in copy.
