Re: right to discovery
That fact that he is your ex-boyfriend has nothing to do with obtaining discovery.
If, however, you sue in small claims court there is no discovery permitted. It is allowed in district court with court permission, I believe. It is permitted automatically in circuit court.
You can only sue in small claims for a few thousand dollars, district court for upwards of $25,000 and circuit court for only in excess of $25,000
