statement of case

statement of case
An informal statement required of a plaintiff in a small claim's court in lieu of a formal complaint, bill, or declaration. A statement required in some states on motion for a new trial. A party moving for a new trial on the ground that the findings of fact are against the evidence should specify in the statement each particular finding which in his opinion is against the evidence. Where the motion is based on the ground that the evidence is insufficient to support the verdict, a statement which contains substantially all the evidence given at the trial need not specify the particulars in which it is insufficient. 39 Am J1st New Tr § 199.
