Internet, interstate retail sales & no small claims courts in our federal court system.
Subject: rapid growth in internet-interstate retail sales with the attendant growth in scams, and retailers using their contacts to ruin a buyer’s credit rating, etc.!

Assuming a state’s small claims court has limited jurisdiction over internet, interstate retail sales, IMO the “general Welfare” of We the People would be protected if our federal judicial system established a venue to resolve small claims that allow citizens to plead their cases without having to hire an attorney.

IMO the filing fee should be no more than $10 and the paperwork to file a civil claim would be limited to no more than one single form. Both criteria intended to make justice affordable and accessible to ALL We the People.

On the other hand such a legal forum with the authority to resolve interstate small civil cases might already exist and some DUer will give me a link to that site.
