What's the difference between a summons and a notice of hearing?
First, the difference between court summons and notice of appearing in court.

The notice of appearance in court is for procuratorates, witnesses, expert witnesses, inspectors, defenders and agents ad litem.

Court summons is a pre-notice to appear in court, a written notice issued at the beginning of specific court procedures and lawsuits, and a voucher to summon relevant personnel to the case.
