FAQ
Small Claims matters are handled by the Magistrate Court. If you cannot resolve a dispute with a business or a person and the amount in controversy is less than $15,000, you may electronically file a case in Magistrate court.
Default. If the defendant fails to file an answer within 45 days, the plaintiff may request a default judgment. A plaintiff wishing to obtain a default judgment should file for an Affidavit for Default Judgment with the Clerk of Magistrate Court.
In cases where the judgment is entered by default, action can be taken immediately to satisfy the judgment, either by garnishment or levy upon the property of the defendant in fi fa. Other judgments may not be enforced for a period of ten days after entry of the judgment.
What is a default judgment? Default means a party has not done what is required of them in the time allowed. For example, a defendant (or respondent) did not file an answer to a complaint within the required time, or a plaintiff (or petitioner) did not answer a counterclaim within the required time.
The party seeking entry of a default judgment in any action shall certify to the court the following: the date and type of service effected; that proof of service was filed with the court; the date on which proof of service was filed; and that no defensive pleading has been filed by the defendant as shown by court ...
For that purpose the judgment debtor should approach the plaintiff/judgment creditor or his/her/its attorney to obtain the written consent to rescission of judgment. There is however no requirement in law that obliges a plaintiff/judgment creditor to give a consent to rescission of judgment.
The Plaintiff (the one filing the action) must electronically file a sworn statement with the Clerk of Magistrate Court, describing the charges against the Defendant (the person or business against whom the claim is brought). This Statement of Claim provides each party with the reason for the lawsuit.
If either party is dissatisfied with the judgment, that party may appeal (request a review of the judgment by a higher court). Either the state court or the superior court in the county will hear the appeal, and either party may request a jury trial. Appeals must be made within 30 days from the judge's decision.
