Hello,
I recently received a letter from a Sheriff stating that I needed to make payments on a judgement that I received in 2009... problem is I was never properly served. For the credit card (800 dollars) I stopped paying in 2008. I plan to file a motion to set aside the default judgement which I am assuming will go through. I did not live where I was "served". After speaking to my mother she mentioned my grandpa being served something and they told them I did not live there but he had to take it anyway. I have tax papers that proof I did not live there.
So now that the statue of limitations would have passed if I was not sued what happens if the motions to dismiss the default judgement is granted? Do I still have to go to court, defend myself, etc... or will that not happen now that this debt is over 8, almost 9 years old.
