Does the plantiff in a divorce have 2 show up for court
Makes no differnece if the Plaintiff was present or not. It does not change the order, or the meaning, or the effect of it.
Not usually. You just lose the case.
That all depends on if you are the plantiff or if you are the defendant and what exactly happened (physical harm,threats,ect) If you are the plantiff and you do not show, I am thinking that there shouldn't be a problem (as long as you're good w/ loosing & not planning to ever get another one on that person, because it will be very hard to) Now, if you are the defendant on the other hand...it should say on the papers, but it would be in your best interest to go (to cover your own butt).
If you win a settlement, the show pays you within 30 days. Both plantiff and defendant are paid a per diem fee, airfare, and lodging, to appear on the show.
Appear on the date of the summons. If you fail to appear in court on that date, the plantiff (the party suing you) will obtain a default judgment. Whether or not you show, the plantiff is still likely to get a judgment against you. You would actually be better off trying to make a settlement with the plantiff before it goes to court. This will save you the added expense of legal fees and potentially court costs as well.
You can go to the Court house and request to see the court records pertaining to your friend...The information is public record if they are over age 18.. You can also check to see if your state has a free online Judiciary Case Search which will show you the Basic information such as if they were the plantiff or the defendant, what the charges were,if they were found guilty/not guilty,if they were sentenced or placed on probation.
It's likely that the court will dismiss the complaint. If the dismissal is "with prejudice," the complaint cannot be refiled.
In all probablity the judge will issue a warrant for his/her arrest.
If neither the defendant nor the plaintiff show up for a court date, the judge may issue a bench warrant for their arrest or the case may be dismissed. It is important for both parties to communicate with the court and reschedule the hearing if they cannot attend.
Admonished to trial in absentia means that the court let the defendant know that if he didn't show up to the court date, he would be tried anyway. The court must tell the defendant to avoid violating his rights.
A misdemeanor for show cause typically means that the defendant has failed to comply with court orders or show up for a hearing, and a judge has issued a show cause order requiring them to appear in court and explain why they did not follow court instructions. This can lead to further consequences such as fines, probation, or even jail time.
If the defendant does not show up in small claims court, the judge may enter a default judgment in favor of the plaintiff. This means that the plaintiff wins the case by default since the defendant did not appear to defend themselves. The plaintiff may then be awarded the relief requested in their claim.
