How do I object to a witness or evidence in a small claims court hearing?

In Idaho, you may object to a witness or evidence presented in a small claims court hearing. To do this, you must file and serve an objection to the evidence or witness before the hearing begins. To file an objection, you must fill out an “Objection to Evidence or Witness” form, which will be available at your local courthouse. This form must include your name and contact information, the name of the case, the name of the witness or evidence being objected to, and the specific reasons for the objection. Make sure you also file any documents supporting the objection at the same time you file the form. Copies of these documents must also be served to the other parties involved in the case. Once these documents have been filed, the judge will determine whether or not to allow the evidence or witness to be presented. If the judge allows the objection, the evidence or witness will be excluded from the hearing. It is important to note that an objection to a witness or evidence must be made before a hearing begins. If the objection is not made before the hearing, then the witness or evidence may still be allowed. Therefore, it is important to file your objection well in advance of the hearing.
