Small Claims Hearing - What to Expect

This small claims video series was made possible thanks to a grant from the State Bar of Nevada’s Lawyer Referral and Information Service

I definitely learned something new about the small claims court process when watching the video.

I was incarcerated for 5 days. I released my property, including house keys to my gf. When I got home,my house was burglarized. I have proof of her signing for my property at the jail. I have text messages from her starting,"I'm not releasing anything until u sign over your parental rights to our 6 month old daughter ". Is that good enough to file?

That’s burglary and extortion. Don’t know what you ended up doing since this is a 4 year old comment but I hope you went to the police.

I paid in advance for service didn't recieve. Not doing that again. Didn't pursue complaimt for compassion. I'm paying for service and no money will change hands until item has been recieved.

Hello. Not sure if anyone will answer my question. The courthouse I will be attending for my small claims court case has evidence put in a simple green folder. Would there be any issues in giving my evidence do the judge in a thin plastic binder? If the judge demands evidence be simply stapled together, I'd rather not put it in the binder.
