Request For Dismissal (Small Claims) {SC-8007}

SC-8007 - REQUEST FOR DISMISSAL (SMALL CLAIMS). This form is used in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara, by parties involved in a small claims case who wish to formally dismiss their claim before the scheduled trial. This form allows either the Plaintiff/Petitioner or the Defendant/Respondent to request that their claim be dismissed either with prejudice (meaning the claim cannot be refiled) or without prejudice (meaning the claim can be brought again in the future). The form also provides an option for a partial dismissal, which applies when there are multiple parties involved and the dismissal is only intended for certain individuals. This document must be submitted to the clerk, preferably at least three court days before the scheduled hearing date, to allow the court to process the dismissal. If both parties have filed claims against each other, each may submit their own dismissal, or one may proceed to hearing if the other has already dismissed. www.FormsWorkflow.com
