Yes i had a couple of questions that maybe you can help me
Of course, ****! I'd be happy to help. What's your first question?
Yes i had to appear at a hearing concerning a case i'm working on and it was a bedbug case and the company the i was filing a claim against didn't show up? So the rule ruled in my favor because he said they defaulted on the case? What i was asking for i dodnot get the judge said that my case should have been in small claim court but i was still asking for more than small claims court because of the severity of the case and i had my evidence and i guess what i,m asking is what do i have to do to open my case up to enter the evidence in the court
