Q: How do u get a court date as a pro se litigant
A:
Request one from the court. Depending upon the type of hearing, you may need to contact the court clerk or the court coordinator depending on the particular court’s procedures.
It is common that you will need to obtain available dates from the court and then confer with the opposing party’s attorney first to resolve any scheduling conflicts and agree on a particular date and time.

A:
In Oklahoma, as a pro se litigant, securing a court date involves several steps. First, you'll need to file the necessary legal documents related to your case, ensuring compliance with formatting and procedural rules specific to your court. After filing, you must serve notice of your case on the opposing party, following Oklahoma's civil procedure laws.
If your case requires a hearing or trial, you can request one in your initial filing or by submitting a separate motion. Be sure to review the local rules of the court where your case is filed, as they provide guidance on requesting hearings and scheduling court dates. To schedule a hearing, you can contact the court clerk's office for available dates or file a notice of hearing proposing specific dates and times in accordance with court procedures.

A: In most jurisdictions, it involves filing initial paperwork with the appropriate court and serving the other side, and when the case is ready for trial, filing necessary notices, per court rules. This is very generic. An Oklahoma attorney should advise, based on your court system. Good luck
