Getting a case number for a lawsuit in another state

While the Vermont lawyer can tell you, he has no obligation to do so and may very well refuse to divulge such information as privileged. However, if you know the attorney's name, you should also be able to discover the city and county in which he practices. There's a very good chance that most of his lawsuits are filed in the courts in that county. Go to that court's website and see if you can do a search by party or attorney. In my county, anyone is permitted to do that because the information is public. In the alternative, you could hire a different attorney in the same town to provide you with the information that you need, including a certified copy of the lawsuit itself, which ought to prove to be powerful evidence later as impeachment.

Make sure you check both the state and federal courts for Vermont - or, maybe the lawsuit is in one of the neighboring states?
