Take cheques for example,
in China's (civil law system) civil procedures, if A lost a cheque, A go to the corresponding court, submit a request for public notice, saying that a certain piece of cheque is a lost one that belongs to A, and if someone else (B, for example) has it (find it) and thinks it belongs to B rather than A, he shall go to the court for explain, otherwise the court would rule that the cheque do belong to A, and declare the lost sheet invalid, A thus may go to the issuer of the cheque for a new sheet of cheque.
In Chinese, it is call Gongshi Guigao, and translated into English as "Public Summon (for Exhortation)".
I am wondering whether there is a civil procedure like that in American law, and what is it called (the legal term)?
Thank you all for your help in advance...
