I recieved a summons today from my ex-landlord, who is filing a
ridicilous suit against us after our threat to file against her for the
return of our security deposit.
She had previously sent an "itemized list" of her ficitous charges against
us, but it was not detailed at all.
The summons I recieved has an area that is to be filled in for the
$ amount you are attempting to recover. She has written $2670 ++ ....am I correct in thinking she would have to actually KNOW what she is asking for, rather than making it up as she goes?
She also wrote in where it says "Plus filing fees of: " has written in "any filing fees" ...mmmm shouldn't she know WHAT the fee is she paid when she filed?
Also, where there is the spot for notary stamp, there is none. It is signed by the clerk/notary, but no stamp.
The area of the summons where she is to write WHAT she is suing for, is very vague and simply says we owe her for damages and unpaid rent.
I know that this situation will have to go to court, and I intend to file a countersuit, but don't I have the right prior to going to court to know exactly what I am defending myself against and for what $$?
Thanks!
