    Default How long for a civil demand to come? Someone has to know!

    I've noticed there have been several posts about how long you should/would expect to receive a demand letter or a civil claim from the store with no answers, but also, what about how long to get a court date-if police were not called.

    Very funny...is it really that mysterious? Or are there "time frames" they usually fall in? I don't assume anyone REALLY has a crystal ball, I'm just trying to get a best guess. How long could you expect it could go (before you'd consider no files being charged)? I guess that is the better question.

    In most cases, probably one to three months. If you fall into an exception, however, that date range doesn't much help.

    We tell everyone who recieves a Civil Demand from us to expect it in about 2 weeks and if they haven't recieved it by 3 weeks give us a call. But, it depends on the company.
