The record gives a starting time of 08:15, postponement because the procedural conditions for holding the hearing were not met, and a closing time of 08:30. The plaintiff did not attend in person, his authorized representative did, and no one attended for the defendant; the case file did not show service of the defendant’s summons. The next hearing was scheduled for 24 April 2024 at 11:00. That date does not establish that the next hearing took place.

Editorial note

This note is not part of the hearing record. The statement that service upon the defendant is not shown does not signify deliberate refusal to attend. The preprinted small-claims notice is reproduced as form text, not as an additional classification of these proceedings. The record contains no decision on the merits of the claim; it records postponement, the new hearing date, and directions for notification and summons.
