I had an incident at a gas station where another driver damaged my car door. The driver's insurance company refused to accept liability. Can I pursue the driver through Small Claims court, subpoena witnesses and evidence, and request preservation of surveillance tapes from the location? How should I send the request for preservation of evidence?

I'm frustrated because my ex-partner is getting court dates earlier than mine for our divorce proceedings. How can I ensure my motion filings are heard on the same date as his, and is there any way to address issues like him not taking a parenting class or submitting incomplete financial affidavits after the divorce was finalized in September 2022?
