How to file a motion for a date change on a small claims court date. Small claims case - venue got changed to Brevard Co from Orange. Case was dismissed in error -now that I got it cleared up and they sent me a date for Brevard.

Dear Anonymous,

Contact the clerk of court in Brevard County and explain your situation.

Small claims rules vary by county and you may or may not need to file a formal motion to reschedule a hearing.

It might be easiest to coordinate a hearing date or possible dates with the other party, if possible, then contact the clerk of court to request a new court date.
