Won a judgement in small claims court being Pro Se. They appealed (he a had an attorney) asking for a motion to reconsider. We went to court again and the Judge denied their motion awarding me a judgement of $1600 but advising either party could appeal to a higher/civil court...which they did.
I represented myself again as I simply couldn't afford an attorney. Still awaiting Judge's ruling...but want to know what my options are.
Can I appeal based on my having important info that I failed to mention. Just got flustered and off-track by being out of my element with regards to legal procedure.
Yes, I know I should have had an attorney.
Also, they are suing for $100,000 in damages for some opinions I posted on the internet
regarding inferior workmanship I believe I was over-charged for. They offered no evidence of financial loss...and I submitted a retraction (unasked for). Have they any chance of being awarded damages if none were shown as evidence and the party in question never asked for a retraction?
Thanks for any help.
Pro Se with a poor client to boot.
