as it's been twenty years since judgment was entered, you a very few realistic recourses. get the case number and court where the case was heard. call the court and request a copy of the complaint and the proof of service. they should still have it if it's been renewed. review these...

1) depends on what collection agency/attorney gets the account. once you a delinquent, the original creditor will try to collect from you for a few months, then it's off to the first in line of collection agencies. most will only call, but a few might sue you. If you get a "gung-ho" collection...

The FDCPA spells out limitations as to who, when and why a collection agency can contact third parties (usually only to determine your location). They can only "talk the debt" to your spouse or your attorney. Your state may have laws that place more restrictions on their activities.

If the contract says $0 in sales tax, I would send them a copy of it and dispute the entire balance.

If they are able to levy against your tax return, they have a judgment. Not all judgments will show up on your credit report. If you had a levy, you must have been served with some form of notice. That should have the case number and jurisdiction where the case was filed.

Tolling of the statute means that the time limit for the creditor to take legal action on their claim is "frozen". This happens for various reasons, usually when the defendant is disabled and unable to act on their own behalf. I need to ask this, are you willing to pay what you owe? As...

point being, your dad knows about the suit... file an answer right away. trying to hide from a process server is a losing battle, they will find you. even if you could prove improper service, the complaint will be dismissed without prejudice, and can be filed again right away.

advise the debtor of your intention to file a small claims action, give him/her a reasonable time to pay what is owed, then proceed in court. chances are teh supplier will pay up, if not, and the facts are as stated, i think you would have a good chance at obtaining judgment (be sure to research...

i'm not 100%on this, but if the "check card" has a mastercard/visa/etc logo, you may be able to dispute the charges under the FCBA.

I misunderstood the question. I thought the debt was incurred in CA and you now live in NV. The SOL is still "tolled", although I would doubt that anyone would be trying to collect on it after 10 years. SOL is an affirmative defense, so if you do get a summons, be sure to include it in your...

do not ignore the summons. if it was properly served. and a default was entered against you, you have little to no recourse. either answer the complaint with an affirmative defense, or go to adr with your creditor.

as far as i know, the default (clerk's judgment) can only be applied for after the time for the defendant's time to answer has expired. the defendant may still make a motion to vacate judgment (showing good cause), but, as far as i know, if the papers were not filed in time, the answer is moot...

i, personally, would talk to the seller about his liability regarding the misrepresentation, and depending on how that goes, name him in an s&c, then have him cross complaint the repair facility (you can also name them in the original complaint as well) report them to your state bar [bureau of...

i concur with the opinion as stated above

pay them... if that is what the contract you signed says, you most likely will lose in court, and be liable for the balance.... always read the fine print

bank levy (see where your check were cashed while a tenant), third party levy on new tenants, ewo... there are a million ways, if you have enough information. if you have trouble, send me a pm and i'll either guide you through it, or refer you to someone who can (i work in legal collections)
