No. Small claims courts are for what their name implies - for collecting "small claims," usually considered in many (all?) states to be of tangible monetary value less than $5,000. If you were to wish to pursue a claim for intangible damages it would have to filed in civil court, but not on the Small Claims docket.

There are many suggestions to this question, the most important suggestion, in my own experience, is to make a record of everything that is involved in the issue and the person bringing the suit. Recording includes journaling, keeping receipts or any other pertinent records, and even making audio recordings of any dealings between the two of you or any other person involved.

As far as the mail is concerned - it is covered by US Statute and it is illegal for anyone to take anyone's mail out of the mailbox for any purpose. In fact it is even illegal to place anything into a mailbox that was not delivered by the US Mail - the Post Offcie can and many times demanded that postage be paid on those items.

What do you mean by "hold" their mail? Either you live somewhere or you don't.

In many cases, a defendant's failure to appear (or to request a continuance) will result in a summary judgment. This can result in further legal proceedings against the defendant even if it is eventually appealed.

In most cases, yes. That is what insurance is for.

Farmers Insurance. I figure since they sent 3 people to represent or help the defendant with her case, and lost. They should cover the judgment that was in my son's favor. My son's insurance is 21 century.

Look to your states laws, court precedents, and rules. Most post motions such as, "a motion for new trial", will preserve your right to appeal. Any appeals based on a De Novo review from a small claim court will allow you to appeal, regardless.

Yes. Anyone can testify in court of any kind if they have knowledge of relevant facts and have some way to communicate to the trier of facts (either the judge or the jury).

A minor can testify, so long as they know what it means to tell the truth.

Yes, unless the judgment was a result of fraud. If the judgment creditor has filed a judgment lien against any of your property, you will need to take the additional step of filing a petition under Section 522(f) of the Bankruptcy Code to remove the lien. Be sure to tell your attorney about any liens that you might have against you.

yes you can the law allows anyone to file a small claims lawsuit. But make sure you have his correct address my suggestion is you send what is called a "DEMAND LETTER" by regular us mail and by certified mail "restricted delivery". its about $10.00 at the post office give him 30 days to pay. Dont worry if he dosent sign it just make sure you have his correct home address. Donot accept partial payment. DO NOT ACCEPT A CHECK. CASH OR MONEY ORDER ONLY. IN FULL> if he does not pay in 30 days file a small claims lawsuit against him in the local court nearest to his address. call the small claims court and ask questions. its easy simple and hopefully you will get your money. If you win hire a collection agency to collect your money. GOOD LUCK! JUDE KAGABINES LEXINGTON SC

You can only sue in small claims court for damages. Landlord and tenant cases are only opened by landlords, not the tenant. If, under constructive eviction clause, you exercise your right to move out of that property and the landlord keeps your security deposit and any other payments you made before moving into the property - except for the first months rent unless that's when you're moving out, then you have the right to sue the landlord to reclaim that money.

What the payment is for will determine its taxability. For example, a payment you receive replacing something you lost, such as a car, your home, jewelry, etc., is generally not taxed. Awards and settlements related to personal injury are not taxed. Also, frequently, many of the costs of the lawsuit may be taken against the result and that can substantially change the tax result. (For example, if the attorney is paid a percentage fee or an hourly fee, and who pays for other expenses, are all directly related to who gets the income and or the right to deduct it). These deductions are miscellaneous itemized on Schedule A, and are reduced by 2% of adjusted gross income. Court awards and settlements for breach of contract, most torts, including punitive damages, are generally taxable with the exception of those relating to personal injury.

You should work with a qualified attorney and tax professional to make sure your settlement is structured to minimize any tax liability. If you have already received an award or settlement, then you should consult a good tax professional to advise you. And of course, tax is paid on your entire financial dealings, not just on this one item. So, depending on many other factors, like losses from other sources, charitable contributions, number of dependents and other deductions, you may not end up paying tax anyway.

The process of serving small claims varies from state-to-state. They are generally served in the same way as civil summonses. As a general rule, neither you, anyone related to you, nor any witnesses in the case may serve the small claim. Most people have the claim served by a licensed process server or send it certified mail, return receipt requested, restricted delivery to the defendant(s).

Your local small claims court can provide you with specific service information based on your state's laws.

The Small Claims limit in Alabama is $3000. Most Small Claims cases are heard in District Court, but a few types are in Circuit Court. This information came from Court Reference's Alabama Courts Guide, the first related link below. The second related link is a handy guide to Small Claims procedure; it's from Shelby County but probably applies statewide. You can ask the court clerk for more specific information - and the court clerks' contact information is at the Court Reference link too.

In all civil cases, the term "without prejudice" means that the Plaintiff may file a lawsuit based on the same cause of action a second time. Many states limit the Plaintiff to only one re-filing.
