90-180 Days (12-IX Visa) If you need to stay longer than 90 days you can apply for a 12-IX visa, which is good for an additional 90 days (for a total of 180), but only once in a calendar year.
Small Claims Court. Each district court in the State of Washington contains a âSmall Claimsâ division for the settlement of civil disputes in which damages claimed total less than $5,000. Small Claims Court was established to provide a low-cost, user-friendly alternative to litigation.
Small claims court provides for a process in which cases can be handled much more efficiently and under a shorter time frame. Recently, Governor Walker signed a bill into Wisconsin law which increases the small claims limit from $5,000.00 or less to $10,000.00 or less. This limit of $10,000.00 applies to cases filed on or after July 1, 2011.
