Generally the presiding judge decides what form of evidence can be submitted.

If an e-mail can be connected to the person without there being any doubt of someone else having sent it, then it is possible it could be used as evidence in some cases.

If the e-mail account was accessible to others, it is highly doubtful it would be allowed to be entered as evidence.

Will a quickbooks program suffice for evidence in small claims court?

It depends on what you are trying to prove. However, business records are generally admissible if they can be authenticated, i.e., if you can show you didn't just enter all the info the night before court in order to manufacture false evidence. If you can get another witness, say, your bookkeeper, to testify that the data was entered in the ordinary course of keeping your records, the judge will probably consider it.

Where is Small Court in New Jersey?

There is no court named "Small Court" so I assume you are asking about Small Claims Court. In NJ, there is no separate "Small Claims Court" - all small claims cases are heard in the Special Civil Part of the Civil Division of Superior Court in each county. To find your local information, use the related link below. Select your county and look for that county's Superior Court - Civil Division. That will be the contact information for small claims cases. The link to the court website is the court name in blue; the court website will have details about small claims cases in that county.

Maybe. Each state has different laws regarding whether or not towns can be sued in small claims court.

Most small claims courts give free brochures explaining the small claims process, including who can and cannot be sued in small claims. Contact your local small claims court for details.
