I have an attorney(who represents a collection agency for an origianl credit card debt) threatening my 75 year old mother with a default judgement.

Problem is, they cannot find the original application filled out in 1993. It is my debt, my social security number and date of birth--but my mom's name. Can they take property me and my mom have together through this default judgement?? Can I get the case moved from New York (where my mom lives)to Missouri (where I live) so I can relieve the stress and respond in a timely manner?? Is it possible that this whole case be thrown out because the original credit card application cannot be found and all information is mixed up??


Hi, since the debt was signed together by you and your mom, anyone can be held responsible and pay this debt.

When do you have the court date? You must show your appearance at the court for avoiding the default judgment on you. Put the disputes in front of the judge so that the case is reviewed thoroughly.

The attorney will try to collect the debt from you or your mother anytime even if the original application was filled in 1993. When was the last payment on this account done? You will come to know if the debt is within the SOL period or not. If the statutes are expired, the attorney cannot sue you legally. But the debt remains valid and you will be held responsible to pay it after all the disputes are corrected.
