How to respond to court summons regarding old credit card debt in coordination to my filling Bankruptcy (within 7 days)?
Question Details:
I've been planning to file Bankruptcy, but I just got a court summons about an old credit card debt. I have to respond by the 27th, how should I respond? The letter statedI needed to send a letter agreeing or disagreeing with the debt.
I am not sure whether you just received a demand letter or a summons and complaint. Since you stated that the letter required that you dispute the debt in writing, I am thinking no suit was filed. If suit was filed, you should have received a summons and complaint served by the sheriff in Cook county. If you intend to file Bankruptcy you should consult a Bankruptcy attorney immediately to determine your next step. If suit was filed, personal service complete, you should file an Appearance by the Return Date. Please feel free to contact me for a Free Consult.
