Small Claims Court

[LiQuiD]

Hey guys. I'm heading to my county clerk of court this afternoon to file a Complaint for Money Owed and Magistrate Summons for small claims court against a deadbeat customer.

Any words of advice from the Huddle? I've got everything I should need including signed invoices for the merchandise they purchased on the account and monthly statements including interest on past due amounts. Anything else I'm forgetting?

Once they rule in your favor it's likely not done.

We weren't paid around $3500. I went to sc court and won. But never got my money.

Yeah once you win and they don't pay, you have to file judgment and still probably won't get paid. It just hits their credit report.

It's pretty fugged up how the law seems to lean in the favor of the defendant in regards to payment of debt.

Because the system is set up to protect the defendant in every way to protect citizens freedoms and possessions from being taken away.

I think you would rather have it this way.

If you win, I believe that you can file a lien against the house or something else they own. They will not be able to sell it until the lien is settled.

My Business partner did this against a house that we did the Sheetrock on. The builder refused to pay us. They were not able to close on the house, until they paid our bill!

Of course, you may have to wait until they sell whatever you have the lien on.

Female Judge, call her sweetie, should help a lot.

How much was he seeking? Not sure if they do this in a lot of cases (seems to be convenient considering it is a house anyway) in small claims.
