Rule 150.01 Location - Clerk's Office and Courtroom

If you want to file a small claims case, the courthouse must clearly post signs showing where to go. This includes the clerk's office, where you actually file your claim, and the courtroom, where your case will be heard. The signs need to be easy to see once you're in the building.

This rule exists so people without a lawyer can find their way around the courthouse without confusion. Small claims court is designed for regular people to handle simple disputes on their own, so the building needs to make the process easy to navigate. If you're not sure where to go, look for these posted signs first before asking court staff for help.
