questions
when was the last payment made?the SOL for both georgia and indiana is six years so unless the last payment was 2006 this is past SOL.btw who is this law firm?how long have you lived in georgia?they must sue in your town,county,village,or bourough so it sounds like they are trying to collect on a "time barred"debt.won't know until you can answer my questions though.

Is it possible that the poster has already been sued and the attorney is legitimately trying to pursue the garnishment? To the poster...you need to check court records to see if you have already been sued. If you were sued 7 years ago it would no longer appear on your credit but the judgment would still be valid...Indiana judgments are good for 20 years.
excellent points soaplady
but isn't GA non-garnishment?that is where the OP currently resides.i would think the courts,and lawyer would know this,but again that is why i asked how long they lived in GA?i wish the OP would return to answer these questions.

I'm wondering the same as SOAP, I think. Maybe this person was sued a while ago, prior to SOL expiring, and they are just now enforcing the judgment. Could be overturned for improper service or improper venue if they moved prior to the summons being served at their old address.

You need to check the court records for Indiana to see if you have already been sued....if they are already talking about garnishment it is possible you were already sued and they are now pursuing garnishment. Did you receive a summmons?? If so, did you answer it? Show up in court. Check the court records.

the firm is located in indiana and they think i live there, thats why they keep sending letters to my mother address (where i use to live) they did have a hearing date but after my mother sent the court a letter stating i dont live at that address it was dismissed but they are still trying to locate me. this is a very old debt. this should be illigel
one of the letter that was sent to my mother address was showing
one of the letter that was sent to my mother address was showing that i was to appear in court. the firm stated they wanted to take wages from a very old employer.
send the old FOAD
sorry,but if there was a judgement the court,and they would know not only where you live now,but also where you work.sounds like they are reaching here.you send the FOAD letter as any action taken now could be dismissed,or vacated easily.this is past SOL and they know it.a quick search showed they have been sued in the past for this very thing so i would keep an eye out and be prepared,but just know they are reaching and can be sued themselves.get the FOAD letter out from your address not your mothers.
here it is
it is a F**K OFF AND DIE.a stronger version of a c&d.chances are there is no court action and if there was you can have it dismissed again due to it being time barred.send the letter certified mail return receipt.check the court clerk site for your former home in indiana.again this law firm has been sued for this very thing before so they really don't play fair.
