IMPORTANT – READ CAREFULLY
A lawsuit has been filed against you. You may, but are not required, to file a written response to
this Summons and the attached Statement of Claim with the Clerk of the Court. A phone call will not
protect you. If you decide to file a written response it should include: the case number given above, the
names of the parties, and your contact information including address, phone number and email address.
Your case will be scheduled for mediation. All hearings and mediation will be conducted by
ZOOM or telephonically. Even if you file a written response, you are still required to participate in
mediation.
A corporation may be represented at any stage of these court proceedings by an officer of the
corporation or any employee authorized in writing by an officer of the corporation. Written
authorization to do so must be filed with the Court prior to any proceeding. All attorneys
appearing must have settlement authority from their clients prior to the proceeding.
FOURTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT
COUNTY COURT MEDIATION PROGRAM
You will be contacted to participate in a small claims mediation. During this session, you will
have the opportunity to take advantage of the County Court Mediation Program. This program provides
both parties with an opportunity to resolve their dispute without returning to court for trial. The
Mediation Program has a 72% resolution rate.
The Program uses volunteer mediators trained and certified by the Florida Supreme Court. These
mediators help parties to try to reach a mutually acceptable agreement. The mediator cannot provide
legal advice or tell you if you have a good case. However, the mediator is there as a neutral party seeking
to help the parties reach a resolution. If you are unable to reach an agreement, your case will be set for
pre trial at a later date.
There is no cost for this service.
Mediation is an alternative to trial and allows both parties to participate in the resolution of their
dispute. Mediation provides certainty and finality to the case. In a trial, the judge makes a final decision.
In mediation, the parties compromise to come to a mutually agreed upon resolution to the dispute.
Mediation can and does work.
If you have any additional questions about mediation, please feel free to contact our office at
(904) 255-1090.
Right to Venue. The law gives the person or company who has sued you the right to file suit in any
one of the several places as listed below. However, if you have been sued in any place other than
one of these places, you, as the Defendant, have the right to request that the case be moved to a
proper location or venue. A proper location or venue may be one of the following: (1) Where the
contract was entered into; (2) If suit is on unsecured promissory note, where note is signed or where
maker resides. (3) If suit is to recover property or to foreclose a lien, where the property is located;
(4) Where the event giving rise to the suit occurred; (5) Where any one or more of the defendants
Case# 2021SC002649 File Date 09/23/2021 04:42 PM Tara S. Green Clay County Clerk of Court
sued reside; (6) Any location agreed to in a contract; (7) in an action for money, due if there is no
agreement as to where suit may be filed, where payment is to be made.
If you as a Defendant, believe the plaintiff has not sued in one of these correct places, you must appear on
your court date and orally request a transfer, or you must file a WRITTEN request for transfer in affidavit
form (sworn to, under oath) with the court seven days prior to your first court date and send a copy to the
plaintiff(s) or plaintiff(s’) attorney, if any.
If you are a person with a disability who needs any accommodation in order to participate
in this proceeding, you are entitled, at no cost to you, to the provision of certain assistance. Please
contact the ADA Coordinator at (904) 255-1695, or crintrp@coj.net at least 7 days before your
scheduled court appearance, or immediately upon receiving this notification if the time before the
scheduled appearance is less than 7 days; if you are hearing or voice impaired, call 711.
A copy of the Statement of Claim shall be served with this summons.
THANK YOU.
