A: Yes, you should receive a copy of the SC-105 (Request for Court Order and Answer) even if it was rejected by the court. This document is important for your records and shows the defendant's attempted actions in the case.

The court clerk is required to mail copies of all filed documents, including rejected ones, to all parties involved in the small claims case. This helps maintain transparency and keeps everyone informed about case developments, even when requests are denied.

If you haven't received your copy within 10-14 business days of the rejection, you can contact the Ventura County Superior Court clerk's office directly. You can either visit in person or call them to request a copy of the rejected SC-105. Keep in mind that you might need to pay a small fee for additional copies of court documents.
