The aggrieved householder submits a complaint, in ordinary English
Sigh. You just haven't got a clue. You're like all those hopelessly naive people who think that it would be so much easier if you could communicate with computers in English. If both sides want speed, they can go to arbitration. Otherwise, law is an adversarial process with each side hiring a gladiator to perform as best as possible for his master. It's further a system which has accumulated hundreds of years of precedent, which really does matter, and it's further yet a system which is based on imperfectly written rules which fail to cover every possible situation. And the lawyers have more to do than focus on one case at a time. That's why suits are slow.
