Happens.\nAlso happens that a defendant was served, but did not know it.\nThe real question is:  What do you do about it?\n\nAssuming you are talking about a non-criminal case:\n\nAnswer:  Have a copy of the entire court file made.  \n\nGo through the copies.  There should be a proof of service in there.  That will show what the plaintiff said was done to serve you with the papers.  There will also be a judgment, see how much it is for, whether you have a defense to the case, and if you have insurance that might pay the judgment.  \n\nIf you have insurance, contact the insurance company and  request that they represent you.\n\nIf you do not have insurance, decide how much you can spend in legal fees to have the judgment overturned and the case tried.\n\nFind an attorney.  Give the attorney the copy of the entire file.  Tell the attorney why the proof of service in the file is incorrect, or why you didn't know you were served.  Give the attorney all the supporting documents you have.  \n\nAttorney will then file a motion under that state's civil procedure rules to have the default set aside and the judgment vacated.  \n\nPlease note, the time in which you have to file the motion varies from state to state, some states give you as little as six months from when the judgment was entered (not when you found out about it) while other states start the clock when you found out about the judgment (or sometimes, when you should have found out about it).   Not knowing which state the case is in, or the reason(s) you were not given notice, the only advice I can give is:  MOVE FAST.

Is this just a simple Small Claims Court suit?  If so, you don't have to be formal or anything.  No special form is needed.  \n\nJust send a response outlining your side of the story.  Give copies of receipts or proof to support your claim.  \n\nThen be sure to appear in court.  If you do not show up, the other side wins by default.\n\nIf this is in a higher court, and/or for a lot of money, you will need to consult an attorney.

Unfortunately, no you cannot re-open such a case, not without new evidence. The best you can do is go after your lawyer, but it probably won't help a whole lot.  Very valuable lesson is to be learned here- you were so young when it happened- you body had many changes to go through yet and with Firestone's record, you should have had a clause put in the settlement (or not settled at all) that future consequences of the accident could be claimed.

I went to the county clerk and recorder office and recorded my judgment.  It automatically puts a mechanics lien on his real estate property. IE:house,land that he has in his name he cannot sell or get a loan until this is paid.  Also I got an Interrogatory form(long form) and had the sheriffs office give it to him, I did this three times but I can do it as many time as I want the judge said so.  The interrogatory makes him disclose all of his assets including his money in the bank.  Then I got another form for Garnish and Levy which will clean out his bank account and or subtract money from his paycheck or Income tax return.  All of the money I spent to collect from him is also added to the total amount and the total accrues at 8% a year.  I had to  to revive the judgment every six years to keep it active.  It's like money in the bank drawing 8% a year so if you don't get paid this year it don't matter.  This is Colorado Law it may be a little different where you live.  This is not advice but my experience.  You may use it however you wish. I did it all myself without a laywer.

No, all you have to do is file a Notice to Appeal with the local Appellate Court, and the Clerk will assist you with the process for a Pro Se appeal.  \n\nHere is the appeal form you will need in Ohio:\nhttp://www.11thcourt.co.trumbull.oh.us/Pdf%20docs/Notice%20of%20Appeal.pdf\n\nJust fill in the information from the forms you have for the original case you want to appeal.  Also, brush up on whatever statutes, federal codes, ordinances, and court cases pertain to your case, and show 'em what you're made of!\n\nHope this helps!

My wife passed away last year so when I was competing my Form 1040 I found no distinctive information on how to claim her for last year so I called IRS. A woman explained exactly what I was to do and accomplished just that on the form in front of me while conversing.\nThree to four weeks later I received my refund check and it had my name and my wife's name on the check. The following day I called IRS to inquire what I should do to get the check re-issued in my name only. After 2 1/2 to 3 hours trying to get thru to a real person at IRS I finally found some other office out-side of IRS who finally transfered me to an IRS attorney. She informed me to complete a special form and return it along with the check. Both times I asked the individuals if I should include a Death Certificate and was told that it wasn't necessary.  I downloaded the form from the net and returned it with the check as directed.\nSome three weeks later I got a letter and another form to complete with instructions to include a Death Certificate and also instructions to notify Social Security which I had already accomplish after my wife's death.\n I originally submitted my taxes in early February and finally got my refund in late May. Need I say more?

The above answer, in a nutshell, is good for starters.\n\nThe problem is each state has differant laws, differant proceedures, and amount limits.  \n\nI'd suggest for starters just do a Yahoo search for "small claims court <YOUR STATE>".  \n\nHere in Michigan, there is a tremendous amount of information available.  The average person can easily file his own paperwork and get through the whole process.

Try writing to your state's department of insurance. Usually the insurance department in each state maintains records of claims, denials, and consumer complaints.  The National Association of Insurance Companies (NAIC) has a list of insurance departments on their web site: http://www.naic.org/state_web_map.htm\n\nKeep in mind that each state has different regulations regarding the record keeping of certain data, therefore the information you are looking for may not be available in the state where you reside. Your best chance is to just call or email the insurance department and find out.

Neither constitutional law nor state court eviction proceedings are my bag, but here's a suggested area to look at from what I gathered.  \n\nUSC 28.89.1443 discusses removal of civil rights issues from state court to federal court.  Technically, you aren't asking for removal.  However, it sounds like the fed courts are treating the eviction proceeding as a closed state decision and, thus, your counterclaim (ie - your filing) is precluded. I don't remember the specific statute, civ pro rule or case, but federal questions can be raised at any time.  If the violation encompasses a federal question, I'd go back and essentially say 'ok, so this is a removal request because a federal question of jurisdiction over a civil rights matter that I am claiming on exists.' There might be a case under USC 28.89.1443 to support it such a removal request.  \n\nWith no knowledge of the actual complaint, opinion, etc to examine arguments, this is about all I can think of.  Best of luck.

Get a copy of the order and send it registered mail to the opposing party.  Ask the clerk at the courthouse.  If they don't cough up the property, ask the court clerk to file a lien against the opposing party.

Looks like you will have to take them to court - unfortuntally - You could file it yourself - Check your local court house or public defenders office for help.  I know there is a dollar limit for small claims, but in order to file a lien, you need the paper work signed (hopefully you have that) the copy of the check/money order/cashier check made out the them) as proof.  But a judge is the only one that can put a lien on them after judgement is in your favor.  All is not a lost cause - Go online and put in legal aid, of legal laws etc liens etc - - Good luck -
