Alaska:
If the plaintiff misspelled my name on the summons, can they still collect judgement if they win in small claims?
I'm being sued because I found a dog in an area about 45 minutes from the closest person in Alaska in the snow. She would have died had I not found her. I immediately called the police, humane association, posted signs downtown (in a town of 3500 on an island), called the radio station and had announcements made and posted a topic on a community website. The original owner didn't come forward for 7 weeks and now is taking me to small claims for $2500 OR the dog back. I believe she's just trying to make money off of a dog that she originally abandoned.
What are my rights?
