What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I have heard that someone is suing me in small claims court. But I have not been served.
The trial date is three days from now, and the court clerks says there is no proof of service in the file. But she also says that some plaintiffs bring the proof of service to court on the trial date, and that some judge's accept that.
I know it is too late for them to serve me, but am concerned that they will fake it - tell the judge they did serve me.
What is best - show up for the trial, or not?
