Received a summons
Date: Thu, 12/11/2008 - 17:25
The amount indicated on the summons is over 2.5 times what I actually owed the credit card company, not including the 6% per annum interest Arrow plans on charging.
I want to dispute this claim and settle for an amount I can afford. Obviously, I have no intention of paying more than I originally owed the credit card company, and I can't afford that. If possible, I'd like to settle for a smaller amount.
However, I can't figure out how to properly respond to the summons. The only information I can find makes it seem that I'd have to pay $250 to file an answer and even then, I don't know if I should be making an offer or just disputing their claims.
Help me please!
I don't know where you live but answering is free in my state.

My case was ordered to mediation and I won because the plaintiff attorney had nothing
You can request through the court that they justify their claim.

Yes, the summons is legit. I had to pick it up from the sheriff
Yes, the summons is legit. I had to pick it up from the sheriff's office. I just don't know how to respond (both the words I should use, and the actually technicalities of what, where, and how I make a response).
