Private parties can sue each other in Small Claims Court. However, if a lot of money is involved, it will have to go to District Court.

Is there a difference between the name sue and the law related sue?

Yes, the name is is just a name, like "Sue Smith", for example. But the law related 'sue' is often written "to sue" and includes a lot of paperwork and people accusing the other of something; this "sue" is not a name. Example Sentence Sue M. said she was going to sue Sue Z. because Sue Z. ran into Sue M.'s car. When one private party, instead of the legal system, brings "a charge" in court against another private party, it is typically a lawsuit in which one party sues another party. The government does not sue; the government can usually only charge.
