NewportSweetPea Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 I have never been to court before and not able to attend in person tomorrow so I am attending by phone. PRA, represented by H&H are requesting trial in a few months. I just sent them a letter requesting arbitration. Any suggestions or tips for this hearing by phone? I do not have legal representation and not familiar with court verbiage etc. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calawyer Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Hard to say since we don't know anything about your case. Search my posts for Case management conference or CMC and you will find several posts. This will be no big deal. You will be done very quickly. If Plaintiff wants to set a trial date, make sure there will be enough time to do any discovery you want to do and file a motion to compel if necessary. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewportSweetPea Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Thank you Calawyer! I should have put up links to my other posts. You helped me last year when this case was first served. Then it went dormant, until now. I am prepping for my call now, it is in 2.5 hours.

NewportSweetPea Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 Sorry for the late update. Phone hearing didn't go very well. I never had the opportunity to speak up and the court date was set. I have since sent a request for arbitration to H&H and to the court. Ready to send my second letter as H&H has not responded.

I wouldn't worry about that too much. Nothing really goes on at a CMC except setting the trial date. I didn't say much at mine, aside from a few times saying 'yes (or no), your honor'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easy619 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 I believe you have to file a motion to compel arbitration, no experience there myself. try a quick forum search for arbitration and motions to compel arbitration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
