Small Claims Court
The
Perry Township Small Claims Court is a cooperative effort between three
elected township officials: Judge Robert Spear, Constable Roy Houchins, and
Trustee Gary S. Coons. Judge Spear presides over all
claims presented to the court, Constable Houchins oversees order in the
court room and issues all papers from the court, and Trustee Coons is
responsible for fiscal oversight of the court. All of whom serve four-year terms.
Every Township in Marion County has a Small Claims Court.
The Perry Township consists of an office manager and three full time clerks.
Hearing over 6,000 cases per year, the Court is designed to provide quick
and easy access to persons with legal grievances with claims of $6,000 or
less, except for cases between a landlord and tenant.
A case may be filed in any township small claims court within the county;
however, cases involving landlord and tenant disputes must be filed in the
township where the property is located.
