My small claims suit is on the 25th. I need to fly to NC for this. My only problem is tickets are pretty high because of the short stay. I asked in my paperwork to be reimbursed for travel costs but do you think that they judge will frown over a nonstop $500.00 flight? I honestly have NO DOUBT that I will win this case. I just do not want to spend 10 hours to get there if I only really need to spend 1 hour 45 minutes.
maybe i am missing something. why do you have to fly to nc for small claims suit... why didn't you just sue them in your small claims jurisdiction?
I was wondering the same thing, you should have been able to sue in your local small claims court. Unless you are the respondent.....
I can't. I leased a home in NC. I then moved back to Michigan. The law states that I must sue in the county that the defendant lives in. This info can be found here. http://www.jus.state.nc.us/cp/sclaim.htm
But the FCRA and FDCPA state that you can sue in any court of competent jurisdiction... I must be missing something.
Yes. What you are missing is that this has nothing to do with the FCRA or the FDCPA. This is a landlord tenant issue. Sorry I didn't make that clear.
