Complaint from atty - looks like its from the court...

[dscurlock]

Reads like... "You've been sued."

To be sure, you can contact the Clerk of the County Court to see if there's a case. There should, at least, be a case number affixed to that "Complaint" on the top in what we call the "caption" area. If your local courts have on-line access, you could search for your case and/or search by your name in the Civil Division of the Court.

Good luck!

there are no numbers or case numbers listed on the letter...

and I have nothing in my name that would benefit anyone...

I am just curious why after all these years they
are trying to push something now...

judgement or not, they will still end up with nothing...
except maybe some court fees and such...

I guess this is my real first complaint..it come to my po box
by reg mail...it is from the atty, but it is all dressed up as
it might be from the court which it is not...

This is on the head of the letter:

State of MN
County of Henn

District Court
Fourth Judicial Dist

Summons and Complaint

This collector has been sending me collection letters on
this one $15k debt that is about 5 years old now...

This is what it states:

You are hereby summoned and required to serve upon plaintiff's
attorney an answer to the complaint which is herewith served
upon you, within 20 days after service of this summons, if you fail
to do so, then judgement by default maybe taken against you...

and on the answer letter they want me to sign:

If you do not complete and return to the sender within 20 days,
then a judgement by default will be taken against you for the
relief demanded in the complaint...

What do you guys think...

This is not a letter from the court, nor a court letter
that says I must appear to answer these charges..

I see it funny as they alone are saying they can give
me judgement without me ever getting a notice
to appear in court...

at this point, I probably would not show anyway...my
credit is so far in the toliet..and I have been unemployed
for a few years now that it does not even seem to matter..

it just seems like they are fishing, or getting ready
to go the next level...they would just be wasting
their own money going to the next level...

Thanks Guys,
