What is the name of your state? California
Back in early 2003, I was sued for defaulting on a revolving credit account for just over $5,000. The original credit card had a $1,000 limit but with late fees and overlimit fees, the debt escalated to over $5,000 (that in itself should be illegal).
The suit was filed Feb 25, 2003 and was served on me over 45 days later.
I attempted to argue with plaintiffs counsel, but they refused to cooperate. I argued improper service, threatened to file a motion to quash, but eventually I ignorantly signed a stip for entry of judgment and agreed to pay $100 monthly until paid off. I made 8 payments and have been unable to continue.
Plaintiffs counsel has been abusive and derogatory throughout the entire process and has now filed a memorandum of costs and is threatening to levy my bank account. Unfortunately, I paid them once with a personal check so they know my account number.
My questions range from can this be set aside even at this late date to should I close my account and re-open a new one with a new account number?
I currently am already being garnished for a really nasty voluntary repo where the bank sold my $35k tahoe for $10k and sued me for the difference, although the garnishment is for less than 25% of my net I have called plaintiffs counsel's bluff in a way by confiding in him to the extent that he knows I am already being garnished.
If anyone knows a legal firm that might be able to help the little guy out of a jam, it would be appreciated.
I am a single father with sole custody of my two children and I get no support from the ex, in other words I am a walking talking harship case. If plaintiffs counsel is able to take any amount from my bi-weekly pay, we will literally go hungry - its that tight week to week around here.
Please help!
