No formal pleading, other than the claim and notice, shall be necessary.

No attachment, garnishment or execution shall issue from the small claims department on any claim except as provided in ORS 52.750 to 52.830. A prevailing party’s costs in securing and service of such execution shall be taxed against the other party and recoverable as part of the judgment. [Formerly 55.080]
