I was served with a summons last night, March 10,2011 from Suttell & Hammer. This is for debt I owe Citibank which I can no longer make monthly payments for because I do not have a job nor receiving unemployment checks. The summons was dated March 1, 2011. The man who served me did'nt ask me sign any paper. It looked like real court documents, stating that a lawsuit has been started against me in the Superior Court of the State of Washington in and for the County of Thurston, and in order to defend against this lawsuit, I must respond to the complaint by stating my defense in writing, and serve a copy upon the undersigned attorneys for the plaintiff within 20 days after the service of this summons, if not a default judgement may be entered against me without notice. It also states that I may demand the plaintiff to file this lawsuit with the court. I am really worried about this whole thing. My wife is the only one who's working right now. Can they garnish her wages, since I am currently unemployed? Please give me some advise.


If the debt is in both your names, I am pretty sure they can garnish her wages for this...if your state does not allow wage garnishment, then they can't touch it.....I am not sure on which states do not allow it but I do know it is very few....

You will either have to answer the summons on your own or try to get an attorney to take the case for you for free....If you want to go about it yourself, you can answer in 1 of 3 ways, deny it, admit it or neither confirm nor deny it.

I am sure someone else will be along to help.

Respond to the summons: They WILL file that in court (even if you respond) then they will file a motion for default (if you don't respond) and a motion for summary judgement (if you do) but at least they will have to notify you. GET A LAWYER.
Show your lawyer the Dunning letter. The one that says: This account has NOT been reviewed by a Lawyer. It shows that they are a collection agency. They do not have a license. GET A LAWYER. Sue them for violation of the FDCPA and RCW 19.16 which will make them pay back every penny they sole from everyone in WA. They may want to settle that out of court ($$$$$$$$) GET A LAWYER and some money.

Turn them into the Attorney General, FTC, OCC, Procecuting attorney in Thurston county and anyone that will listen. But most of all CALL A LAWYER. Many of them will have the consult for free. Show them the Dunning Letter and docs this COLLECTION AGENCY sent you.

Don't worry they will forge some bills and get an afidavit from someone at CitiCrop Credit services Inc (by contract and under agreement) to swear all kinds of generic things. They have personal knowledge of everything but didn't get the account until 6 months ago.

An attorney will take it for $5k retainer, and $25k after the summary judgement.

No they don't even have a license in WA where they slither.

Try the AG, FTC, OTCC, Bud hibbs, and robert paisola (for $200 he will abuse Issac for you).

In short get a lawyer, get one NOW because even if you don't owe it, it is past SOL, or you want all motions in court summarily deigned.

Best defense: Good offense, Prove they are a collection agency, and they will spend a year in Jail, pay $500, and have to repay anyone they stole money from ever!
