    Stipulation of Dismissal
    Hi everyone! Hope everyone is doing OK.

    Most of you remember me posting my case here where I was being taken to court because according to them I owed some account by citybank.


    Well I went to the hearing it was with a magistrate not with judge, however, the plaintiff was on the phone (due to distance) and I was present at the court. I told them about not receiving any evidence and rule of discovery, The magistrate advised the plaintiff that I was a head and the plaintiff said to give her till September to get all the avidence, however, I told the magistrate that she was given only 30 days to present evidence which she failed to do. About 5 days later, I received a stipulation of dismissal...


    Could I counter sue? Or should I just sign these papers so that the case be dismissed. You answer is much appreciated.

    Just sign the papers. You really have no grounds for a counter suit. If you try you just give the plaintiff more time to get the documentation together.
