Answer to Question 1

Filing and trying a suit in an inferior court starts with obtaining a form for the complaint from the court and filling it out by the plaintiff without help from a lawyer. The defendant is then served with the complaint. When the case is tried, the procedure is much more informal than in a court of record. A judge tries the case because there is no jury present. Neither party has to be represented by an attorney, and in some courts may not be so represented. Thus, the judge asks the parties to state their positions.
Witnesses and evidence may be presented, but the questioning is more informal. The judge is likely to ask questions in order to assist in ascertaining the facts. The judge then renders the verdict and judgment of the court. Normally, either party may appeal the judgment to a court of record, in which case the matter is retried there.
