Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Michigan

Small Claims - possible multiple plaintiffs

Several months ago I hosted a Party-plan home show. The

products have not been delivered and I cancelled the order 2

months ago. The consultant said she would mail me a refund

check to cover all the orders, but is now having money problems

and no longer has the money because she spent it on her own

household expenses. The order was never actually submitted to

the company. Can I sue on behalf of all my guests and myself (a

total of 5 people), or must we all file separate small-claims suits?

The total owed is over $350.

Re: Small Claims - possible multiple plaintiffs

All of you can go in together in the same lawsuit. However, you must all appear separately in the suit. Your trial date will be the same. Bill Stern
