(See below for exceptionsf) The process is quick and cheap. The rules are simple and informal. You are the defendant-the person being sued. The person who is suing you is the plaintifi. Do I need a lawyer? You may talk to a lawyer before or after the case. But you may not have a lawyer represent you in court (unless this is an appeal from a small claims case). How do I get ready for court? You don’t have to file any papers before your trial, unless you think this is the wrong court for your case. But bring to your trial any witnesses. receipts, and evidence that supports your case. And read “Be Prepared for Your Trial" at www.courts.ca.gov/smal/claims/prepare. What if l need an accommodation? Ifyou have a disability or are hearing impaired, fill out form MC-41 0. Request for Accommodations. Give the form to your court clerk or the ADAI Access Coordinator. What if l don’t speak English well? Ask the court clerk as soon as possible if your court has a court-provided interpreter available and how to request one. A court-provided interpreter may not be available. Alternatively, you may bring an adult who is not a witness or an attorney to interpret for you or ask the court for a list of interpreters for hire. Where can l get the court forms l need? Go to any courthouse or your county law library, or print forms at www. courts. ca.gov/smallclaims/forms. What happens at the trial? The judge will listen to both sides. The judge may make a decision at your trial or mail the decision to you later. What if I lose the case? If you lose, you may appeal. You’ll have to pay a fee. (Plaintiffs cannot appeal their own claims.) ' If you were at the trial, file form SC-140, Notice oprpeaI.

You can see a description of the amounts allowed in the paragraph above titled “Small Claims Court.” Agree with the plaintiff's claim and pay the money. Or, if you can’t pay the money now, go to your tn'al and say you want to make payments. Let the case "default." If you don't settle and do not go to the trial (default), the judge may give the plaintiff what he or she is asking for plus court costs. If this happens, the plaintiff can legally take your money, wages, and property to pay the judgment. What ifl need more time? You can change the trial date if: ' You cannot go to court on the scheduled date (you will have to pay a fee to postpone the trial), or ‘ You did not get served (receive this order to go to court) at least 15 days before the trial (or 20 days if you live outside the county), or ' You need more time to get an interpreter. One postponement is allowed, and you will not have to pay a fee to delay the trial. Ask the Small Claims Clerk about the rules and fees for postponing a trial. Or fill out form SC-150 (or write a letter) and mail it to the court and to all other people listed on your court papers before the deadline.
