HOW TO SUE FOR AN AMOUNT OF MONEY UP TO $15,000 (SPECIAL CIVIL COMPLAINT AND SUMMONS ­ DC CASES ONLY) WHO SHOULD USE THIS PACKET?
You can use this packet if a person or company owes you up to $15,000 and you want to sue that person or company. Some reasons you might sue a person or company are: · a person or company did not comply with a written or oral contract; · you paid money as a down payment and want it returned; · your property was damaged in a motor vehicle accident; · defendant damaged or lost your property; · merchandise you bought is defective; · work you paid for was faulty or not completed; · you want to be paid for work you did; · someone wrote you a bad check; or · you gave a landlord a security deposit that was not returned. You cannot use this form for: · a claim for child support and/or alimony; or · a claim arising from a probate matter, a prerogative writ action or a claim for equitable relief.
NOTE: If you believe you are entitled to more than $15,000, your case should be filed in the Law Division, Civil Part of the Superior Court. Even if you are suing for more than $15,000, you can still sue in Special Civil, but you give up your right to recover any amount over $15,000. The additional money cannot be claimed later in a separate lawsuit. You must be at least 18 to file your claim. If you are under 18, your parent or guardian has to file the claim for you. A corporation, limited liability company or limited liability partnership may not file a complaint for more than $3,000 without a lawyer; such a complaint may be filed only by a lawyer representing the corporation, limited liability company or limited liability partnership. NOTE: These materials have been prepared by the New Jersey Administrative Office of the Courts for use by selfrepresented litigants. The guides, instructions and forms will be periodically updated as necessary to reflect current New Jersey statutes and court rules. The most recent version of the forms will be available at the county courthouse or on the Judiciary's Internet site (www.njcourtsonline.com). However, you are ultimately responsible for the content of your court papers.

Completed forms are to be submitted to the county where you are filing your case. A list of addresses to locate the appropriate Superior Court Office to file your papers is provided at the end of the packet.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU REPRESENT YOURSELF IN COURT TRY TO GET A LAWYER
The court system can be confusing and it is a good idea to get a lawyer if you can. If you cannot afford a lawyer, you may contact the legal services program in your county to see if you qualify for free legal services. The telephone number can be found in your local yellow pages under Legal Aid or Legal Services. If you do not qualify for free legal services and need help in locating an attorney, you can contact the bar association in your county. Their telephone number can also be found in your local yellow pages. Most county bar associations have a Lawyer Referral Service. The County Bar Lawyer Referral Service can supply you with the names of attorneys in your area willing to handle your particular type of case and who may sometimes consult with you at a reduced fee. There are also a variety of organizations of minority lawyers throughout New Jersey, as well as organizations of lawyers who handle specialized types of cases. Ask your county court staff for a list of lawyer referral services that include these organizations. - We can provide you with guidance on how to fill out forms. - We can usually answer questions about court deadlines. - We cannot give you legal advice. Only your lawyer can give you legal advice. - We cannot tell you whether or not you should bring your case to court. - We cannot give you an opinion about what will happen if you bring your case to court. - We cannot recommend a lawyer, but we can provide you with the telephone number of a local lawyer referral service. - We cannot talk to the judge for you about what will happen in your case. - We cannot let you talk to the judge outside of court. - We cannot change an order issued by a judge.

KEEP COPIES OF ALL PAPERS
Make and keep for yourself copies of all completed forms and any canceled checks, money orders, sales receipts, bills, contract estimates, letters, leases, photographs, and other important documents that relate to your case. Bring all documents to court if you are notified that an appearance is necessary.

WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT IF YOU REPRESENT YOURSELF
While you have the right to represent yourself in court, you should not expect any special treatment, help, or attention from the court. You must still comply with the Rules of the Court, even if you are not familiar with them. The following is a list of some things the court staff can and cannot do for you. Please read it carefully before asking the court staff for help. - We can explain and answer questions about how the court works. - We can tell you what the requirements are to have your case considered by the court. - We can give you some information from your case file. - We can provide you with samples of court forms that are available.

DC - Complaint - $15,000 Limit

How to Sue for an Amount of Money Up To $15,000 (Special Civil Complaint and Summons- DC Case Only) The numbered steps listed below tell you about what forms you will need to fill out and what to do with them. Each form must be typed or printed clearly on 8 1/2 X 11" white paper only. Forms may not be filed on a different size or color paper. STEP 1: Fill out the SPECIAL CIVIL COMPLAINT (FORM A) The Special Civil Complaint tells the court and the defendant the facts of the case and the amount of money that you want from the defendant. STEP 2: Fill out page 2 of the SPECIAL CIVIL PART SUMMONS (FORM B) The Special Civil Part Summons is delivered by the court to the defendant in the case (the person or company being sued). It puts the defendant on notice that you have filed a complaint against them. It also informs the defendant of the steps he or she must take to dispute the claim. Attach page 2 of the summons form and the filing fee (see Step 4) to the complaint before mailing or delivering your papers to the court. Page 1 of the summons is a pre-printed form that the court will attach when it delivers the summons to the defendant. STEP 3: Be sure that the papers can get to the defendant It is very important that you provide the court with the defendant's correct address. After you file your papers with the court, the court will mail or deliver the papers to the defendant using the address you gave the court. If the defendant cannot be found at the address you give the court, Service of Process is considered incomplete and the court will ask you for another address they can use to contact the defendant. If the address is correct and the defendant is served with the papers and answers the complaint, then the court will notify both sides of a trial date. STEP 4: Attach the filing fee Make a check or money order payable to the Treasurer, State of New Jersey. See page 6 for more information on how to compute the filing fee. STEP 5: Where to file the SPECIAL CIVIL COMPLAINT (FORM A) The complaint must be mailed or delivered to the Office of the Special Civil Part Clerk in the county where at least one defendant lives or where the defendant's business is located. If there is more than one defendant, the complaint can be filed in the county where any of the defendants live or are located. If none of the defendants live or are located in New Jersey, the complaint must be filed where the claim happened. STEP 6: Check your completed forms Check your forms and make sure they are complete. Remove all instruction sheets. Make sure you have signed the forms where you are asked to sign them. You must have all of the following items in this order:

Complaint (FORM A) Summons (FORM B) Filing fee in the form of check or money order. Please do not mail cash. You may however use cash if you pay in person, but keep the receipt you get from the court staff for your records.

DC - Complaint - $15,000 Limit

STEP 7: Mail or deliver your package of completed papers to the court. You can deliver your papers to the court in person or you can mail them. If you mail the papers, we recommend that you use certified mail, return receipt requested. This will provide you with a green receipt card that can serve as proof that you mailed the papers. Your post office can tell you how to send certified mail, return receipt requested. · Make at least 4 copies of the entire packet of completed forms. · Mail or deliver to the court the original and 2 copies of all the forms if there is one defendant, plus two more copies for each additional defendant. · Keep one copy of the entire packet for your own records. STEP 8: The defendant may file an ANSWER After you file your papers with the court and Service of Process is complete, the defendant has the opportunity to dispute the claims in your complaint by filing and serving a written answer. A court date will not be set unless the defendant mails or delivers a written answer, along with the proper fees, to the Clerk of the Special Civil Part within 35 days from the date the complaint was served on the defendant. If the defendant does not file an answer within the time allowed, you may be entitled to a default judgment once you submit your proofs to the court.

STEP 9: You will get a court date for your trial After you file your papers with the court, and assuming that the Service of Process is complete and the defendant files an answer, the court will send both sides a notice which tells each side the date, time and the place they must go to. You must appear in court on this date; if you do not, your case may be dismissed. If the other party does not appear, the court may find the other party to be in default. If you cannot make your court date because of circumstances beyond your control, you must contact the other side and the court in advance and request that your trial date be rescheduled. Bring all the evidence (documents, photographs and witnesses) you need to prove your case with you to court on your court date. A witness' written statement, even if under oath, is not admissible in court. Only actual testimony in court of what the witness heard or saw will be allowed. Prepare your questions in advance. Even if the defendant does not appear in court, the judge may schedule a Proof Hearing at which you must present all documents that support your case such as canceled checks, money orders, sales receipts, bills, contracts, estimates, leases, letters, photographs, and other documents proving your claim. If you need an interpreter or an accommodation for a disability for your trial, please contact the court before your trial date.

THE SUPERIOR COURT OF NEW JERSEY Law Division, Special Civil Part SUMMONS

YOU ARE BEING SUED! IF YOU WANT THE COURT TO HEAR YOUR SIDE OF THIS LAWSUIT, YOU MUST FILE A WRITTEN ANSWER WITH THE COURT WITHIN 35 DAYS OR THE COURT MAY RULE AGAINST YOU. READ ALL OF THIS PAGE AND THE NEXT PAGE FOR DETAILS.
In the attached complaint, the person suing you (who is called the plaintiff) briefly tells the court his or her version of the facts of the case and how much money he or she claims you owe. You are cautioned that if you do not answer the complaint, you may lose the case automatically, and the court may give the plaintiff what the plaintiff is asking for, plus interest and court costs. If a judgment is entered against you, a Special Civil Part Officer may seize your money, wages or personal property to pay all or part of the judgment and the judgment is valid for 20 years. You can do one or more of the following things: 1. Answer the complaint. An answer form is available at the Office of the Clerk of the Special Civil Part. The answer form shows you how to respond in writing to the claims stated in the complaint. If you decide to answer, you must send it to the court's address on page 2 and pay a $15 filing fee with your answer and send a copy of the answer to the plaintiff's lawyer or to the plaintiff if the plaintiff does not have a lawyer. Both of these steps must be done within 35 days (including weekends) from the date you were "served" (sent the complaint). That date is noted on the next page. AND/OR 2. Resolve the dispute.

This may avoid the entry of a judgment and the plaintiff may agree to accept payment arrangements, which is something that cannot be forced by the court.

If you can afford to pay a lawyer but do not know one, you may call the Lawyer Referral Services of your local county Bar Association at _______________.
