It's an initial hearing because that is what it is... we filed suit... the Defendant was served and now we are waiting to attend the initial hearing...
My wife and I are Plaintiffs for a small claims court case in Indiana. We are suing a heating and air-conditioning company over a failed installation and repair.
My question is at the initial heairng is it necessary for BOTH my wife and myself to be at the initial hearing or can just one of us...
