What are orders for someone to appear and answer a petition before the court?

Subpoenas
Notifications
Writs of Execution
Summons

The correct answer is: Summons

Summons are legal orders for someone to appear and answer a petition before the court. This is the correct answer because a summons is specifically used in legal proceedings to notify individuals of their required presence in court and to respond to a legal action or proceeding initiated against them. In contrast, the other options are not accurate in this context: A. Subpoenas are also court orders, but they are typically used to compel individuals to produce evidence or testify in court, rather than to answer a petition. B. Notifications are generally informal messages, unlike legal summons, which have specific legal implications and consequences. C. Writs of Execution are documents used to enforce a judgment or court order, typically related to seizing property to satisfy a debt or obligation, rather than compelling someone to appear in court to answer a petition.
