🟦 COURT MODE — TAP A BUTTON
Rule for yourself:
Tap → Read 1–2 sentences → Speak or read → Tap BACK
🔵 A. OPENING (30 seconds)
TAP TO OPEN
READ THIS (slowly):
“Your Honor, I’m appearing pro se. Today I understand the Court is addressing two issues:
(1) whether service was valid and the judgment is void, and
(2) surplus accounting issues due to inconsistent numbers.
I’m relying on the motion and exhibits in the binder.”

⬆️ Tap title again to close
🔵 B. SERVICE / VOID JUDGMENT
TAP TO OPEN
CORE LINE:
“Service was not properly completed, and without valid service the judgment is void. The record shows defects in how service was attempted.”
If Judge Asks “What defect?”
“Your Honor, the issue is shown in the returns and affidavit. I can point to the specific exhibit so I don’t misstate it.”
If Judge Says “But You Had notice”
“Notice does not substitute for valid service when jurisdiction is at issue.”
If Judge Says “Why didn’t You Act sooner?”
“I acted once I understood what occurred and obtained the documents needed to support the motion.”
NEXT:
⬆️ Close when done
🔵 C. SURPLUS / NUMBERS
TAP TO OPEN
CORE LINE:
“The surplus matters because the numbers presented have been inconsistent. I’m asking for a clear, document-supported accounting before any funds are distributed.”
If Judge Asks “What Surplus Do YOU Think it is?”
“I don’t want to guess. Based on the deed and judgment, a surplus appears likely, but the exact amount requires a verified accounting.”
If Judge Wants a Number Anyway
“I can point to the number stated in the filed document or exhibit. I don’t want to estimate from memory.”
NEXT:
⬆️ Close when done
🔵 D. CREDIT BID Vs CHECK
TAP TO OPEN
CORE LINE:
“If this was a credit bid, that must align with the documents. The record reflects a stated consideration/check. Those positions can’t both be true.”
If Counsel Says “No Money moved”
“Then the Court should reconcile that with the document reflecting a stated consideration. That inconsistency is why accounting is needed.”
NEXT:
⬆️ Close when done
🔵 E. UTILITIES STILL IN MY NAME
TAP TO OPEN
USE ONLY IF ASKED OR RELEVANT
SCRIPT:
“Utilities remain in my name despite the asserted transfer. That ongoing exposure is another reason clarity and court direction matter.”
STOP AFTER THIS SENTENCE.
⬆️ Close
🔵 F. PERSONAL PROPERTY / DAMAGE
TAP TO OPEN
USE ONLY IF JUDGE OPENS DOOR
SCRIPT:
“My personal property remains inside, and the condition of the property affects practical relief. I’m not asking to litigate damages today.”
If judge says “That’s separate” →
“Understood, Your Honor.”
⬆️ Close
🔵 G. ACCOMMODATION (NON-AUDIO)
TAP TO OPEN
SCRIPT:
“Your Honor, I have a speech impairment and anxiety. I may need to read from my notes to be clear and accurate.”
⬆️ Close
🔴 H. I’M FLUSTERED / RESET
TAP TO OPEN
RESET LINE (USE THIS):
“Your Honor, may I take a moment to refer to my notes so I don’t misstate the record?”
If Speech Locks up
“I need to read this due to a speech impairment.”
If Panic Spikes
“I’m experiencing a medical issue and need a brief pause.”
⬆️ Close
🟢 I. CLOSING (15 seconds)
TAP TO OPEN
READ THIS:
“Your Honor, I’m asking the Court to address the service issue based on the record and to require a clear, verified accounting before any surplus is distributed.”
⬆️ Close
