Rule 105 Hearings to Be Informal

Here's what this rule means: if you're dealing with a summary eviction case, the hearing doesn't have to follow strict legal formalities. The judge keeps things simple and straightforward.

You won't need to file extra legal paperwork beyond what the law or court rules already require. This makes the process easier for people who don't have a lawyer, since they don't need to know complicated legal filing rules just to have their case heard.

The goal is to let the judge focus on the actual dispute between the landlord and tenant, rather than getting caught up in technical paperwork requirements. This helps eviction cases move faster and keeps the process accessible to everyone involved.
