Amending Small Claims Court Claim

Summary

In Ontario, you can amend a claim under Rule 12.01 of the Small Claims Court Rules. You can amend a claim before the defendant files a defense. If the defendant has filed a defense, you need their consent or the courts permission. Removing a party would likely require the courts permission. Filing a 15A is a formal request to amend a claim and is not against ethical boundaries if the party was previously employed with the business. Generally, you can serve a family member on behalf of a party involved in a case if they are of suitable age and understanding and reside at the same address. A self-represented person can file a motion concerning a former employee, but the courts decision will be based on evidence and applicable laws. Consulting a lawyer is advisable for complex cases.
