Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

Permanent Makeup Appeal
I was sued in small claims court by a client who had three proceedures done in permanent makeup. She did not go through with entire proceedure and tried to get her credit card company to chargeback my account. On failure to do this, she sued me in small claims court and got her daughter (a lawyer) named as co-plaintiff because she reimbursed her mother with a check for said services. Because my contract did not specifically state she had to complete three applications and I had no proof I had given her after care instructions, the judge awarded in her favor. However, before doing so he found the daughter was a lawyer and dismissed her with prejudic. Should he not have thrown this case out? I have an appeal pending- what should be my tack on this matter?

Re: Permanent Makeup Appeal

No, he should not throw out the whole case. on a small claims appeal you basically do the whole case over again.
