- File it within 21 days, as stated in your letter.
- Ensure it's complete and accurate to avoid further amendments.
Need help with specific parts?
The judge stated that i have failed to fill in the amount in controversey section of the civil complaint form
Hello ****, the 'amount in controversy' section is where you specify the compensation you're seeking. This can include medical bills, lost wages, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. Try to estimate these costs accurately.
What i didn,t means is what does admonished means
Hello ****, "admonished" in a legal setting usually means that the court is giving a stern warning or reprimand, often due to a violation of a rule or order. It's a way to correct behavior without imposing a severe penalty.
