The Illinois Notice of Hearing (Small Claims) is a document that is served upon the defendant in a small claims court case in the state of Illinois. It is a formal notice that informs the defendant of the date, time, and location of the hearing that is scheduled. In addition, the notice outlines the amount of money that the plaintiff is claiming and the reasons for the claim. The Notice of Hearing also explains the consequences of not appearing at the hearing. In Illinois, there are two types of Notice of Hearing (Small Claims) that can be served upon the defendant. The first is a Notice of Default Hearing, which is used when the defendant fails to respond to the complaint. The second is a Notice of Trial Hearing, which is served when the defendant has responded to the complaint.
