Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana
Sued under wrong name
I was sued in an Indiana small claims court under the wrong name. Is this justifiable reason for not showing up at the hearing?

No, not really. If you are aware of the suit regardless of the name the plaintiff used, then you have actual notice and need to defend the suit from the beginning.
