RJM Acquisitons/Wachovia Summons?
Date: Mon, 01/18/2010 - 16:27
I had an overdrawn account with wachovia, ( I was going through tough times as everyone does) and lost my job and I have had to move a good 5 hours away. I put in a forwarding address, and for the last 6months have not received anything from RJM ACQ. however, today a sheriff came and gave my 14 yr old ( who was at home while I was out) a civil summons. the Summons was date for Sept. 2009 then dated again for Nov. 24, 2009 and then served again today Jan. 18th. The county they filed it in was were I used to live 5 hours away, with my new address.
it says I have 30 days to answer complaint and gives me an attorney who half way between where I used to live and where i live know.
I figure I owe wachovia like 1,000 bucks but they have on the summons i owe 1,350.
Is this something where I can send a validation letter, and would I send it to RJM or the attorney c/o? I found it odd that I get no letter, no call but out of the blue a "summons" and I would have thought it was a scare tactic but would they go through the trouble of paying to send a sheriff, and filing a document in the old county and then paying someone in my new county to serve another ??? I am totally baffled!
any suggestions? thanks for your help:)

I would have looked up the court site to confirm the lawsuit. Next, you need to file an answer to the summons along with motion for discovery, which would reveal the facts about the debt.

I went to the NC Court System website, then to the county it was "filed" in and cannot find any information on me. I searched by name, there is no "citation" number only a file number xx CVD xxx I even searched by that, nothing comes up. I checked even the county I live in now.
I would think that even with the "complaint" document with the file stamp on it, I would find something.
any other suggestions in regards to finding this on website?
as far as answering the complaint, I guess I will type up a document with answer to each of the numbered allegations. correct?
I just wonder if why a sheriff would serve and deliver the document to my child, and why I have not recieved any written or verbal communications until now. that is why I asked if I should do some validation letter?
thanks ! whew what a mess. :confused:
