Hi mae:
As you have received a summons, you need to answer to that within the stipulated time mentioned with the summons. You have rights as a debtor. Thus, you can file for exemptions with the summons. Exemption can be on your vehicle, your property etc. However you can contact the clerk where the judgment has been filed and inquire into the details of the exemption and how to answer to the summons.
Lindey:
It is not a must, that they had a judgment against you. You can contact the law firm and inquire into the details. You can also pull your credit report and check if any judgment has been listed against you. Moreover as they have settled, I don't think that they have a judgment against you.

| When I said setttlement, I meant that we agreed upon a payment plan for the amount owed. I am assuming this is why they still need a judgement against me. Do I need to be there for that? Sorry about the confusion. Thanks so much. |

Hi,
What is the settlement on? Is it on the debt amount, or the judgment amount? If the settlement is on the judgment amount, you need not go to the court anymore. However, if the settlement is simply on the debt amount, and the judgment had been filed before, you need to appear in court. Whatever may be the case, you should have a written copy of the settlement.

| ok so a yr ago a friend took a loan out and forgot about it now they have served him with a courts summons wanting $800 plus ... he tried calling and settling outside of court. though he cant really afford the $100/week til its paid off thats what he offered it would make things tough for him but he would do it. but they wouldnt take it. they want $205/week for 4 weeks and he absolutely cannot afford that not if he wants to keep his apt and food andn such... but they wont back down or work with him. he doesnt want to go to court. would court be the best bet for him? or would that just be more expensive and make things worse? |

Hi,
Your friend should make a copy of his monthly income and expenditure. Then he can send a settlement request to the creditor or the collection agency. He should mention that he would definitely like to pay but is unable to pay the high amount because of the financial condition. Along with the letter he needs to attach the copy of his monthly income and expenditure.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Aaron

Hi James:
You can go to the court where the judgment was filed an inquire about this. You have time still.
Lucee:
As you are not sure about the debt, you can go to the court and check into the details of this debt. As the case on this bill has been filed, the court will have all the details of the bill. Then, if you think that you really owe this bill you can answer to the summons. However, if you doesn't owe the bill, you can file a motion to dismiss the summons.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Aaron

She will be sent a notice to show up in court, if she fails to appear they will more than likely send a warrant for her arrest.
As far as the contempt, the judge will have many options, the judge may decide to have the visit made up and that will be the extent of it. Do you have regular visitation?
We are going through a custody battle with a grandparent right now and we have been in contempt before, the judge just made us make up the visits. He had many options though, it could have been a lot worse. Depends on your state and what the local rules are. You can ask your attorney what the penalties are. |

Hi Sarahfolsom,
To establish an on-line payment account, you will have to visit the company's website. There you will get the option to sign-up for on-line payments. After you register there, you can use the payment account to make the online payments.
Thanks,
Aaron

Any and all summons should NEVER be ingnored!
#1 Make sure the debt is in fact yours
#2 Deny, Deny, Deny (Don't Lie) Just Deny
#3 File a motion to vacate the Judgement
The more you ignore them the more negative impact it will have on your credit rating....It takes patience and persistence
Good Luck you can do it! |
