Oh well, my neighbor actually sued me. I got served this morning. It will be a remote hearing at Orange county, CA court. 1. She got the month wrong(it happened in Nov. 1st, 2020, she wrote October 2020) 2. She included court filing fee for the claim amount even though the form specifically...

you were very kind and helpful, thank you! I will update if my neighbor is stupid enough to actually sue me.
