<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in">I have a PNC who might be facing a small-claims court action. My understanding has always been that both parties have to agree to not have attorneys for it to be in Small Claims, and that if one side wants representation
they have a right to it and the dispute has to be heard in district or superior court.<u></u><u></u></p>
