To be sure, you would need to consult the rules for the court where the case is pending. However, generally, small claims courts do not require formal pleadings beyond the original simple complaint and possibly an answer. So, it is entirely possibly that you could just appear in court at the time the case is scheduled to be heard and verbally respond in front of the judge.

Can you request to dismiss a petition without prejudice in a family law matter?

"Dismissal without prejudice" is usually a judgment heard in criminal court, and means that a case is dismissed but CAN be reinstituted at a later time. If by "petition" you are referring to a "motion" before the court, it depends on whose motion it is. If it is your motion, simply ask to withdraw it. If it is the other party's motion, you can offer your testimony as to why it shouldn't be granted, but that is all you can do and the judge will decide how to rule.


What happens after an fwop notice is filed in court?

FWOP = For Want (i.e.: lack) of Prosecution. The way the question is worded it sounds as if the defense is filing a motion to dismiss the case - "for want of prosecution." If the judge agrees, it depends entirely on whether they dismiss the case WITH prejudice or WITHOUT prejudice. If it is WITHOUT prejudice the case COULD be opened again by the prosecution. If it is WITH prejudice the case is over and finished and can never be brought again (for THIS particular offense).
