有四种规定的诉讼启动方式：（1） writ of summons传讯令状，（2）originating summons原诉传票，（3）originating motion原诉动议（书），以及（4）petition请愿书。原诉动议适用于某些类型的诉讼，如上诉，而请愿则适用于公司清算、破产令、选举质疑或某些婚姻相关问题的申请。绝大多数诉讼是通过传票或原诉传票的方式开始的。
传讯令状用于对事实几乎没有争议，而重点是法律问题的情况下。相反，当存在实质性的事实争议时，传讯令状更常被使用。
如果诉讼是通过传讯令状开始的，那么列出原告索赔和补救措施细节的索赔声明可以与传票一起送达，或者在稍后日期送达（在被告承认传票送达并对索赔提出异议后）。如果原告决定在稍后日期提交和送达索赔声明，则必须在令状上背书索赔批注。需要注意的是，索赔声明和所有诉状一样，必须用真实性声明来验证，可以在晚些时候提交，但要尽快。
