You file a lawsuit in a Court with proper jurisdiction. You do not obtain "papers" from the clerk to file. A law suit is drafted for the particular suit. If you are unable to conduct the legal research necessary to learn the proper jurisdiction and cause of action, you should hire an attorney to assist you.
