I was served papers last monday by the sheriff giving my 20 days to respond. It was for a debt that was charged off in 2000. they want 2k now. This debt is not even on my credit report, so i looked at my credit report when we bought our house and it has this debt showing it was charged off in 09/2000 for 456.00. I looked up the SOL in Iowa where i lived all of my life and it is 5 years for credit card debt.
My question is with my answer weather to but that on there, on that complaint they attached a answer it just has a space to check that you admit or deny. Can i use this SOL on there and if so how. The other problem is i asked the clerk when dose this go to trial, she said with in a month of after the answer. I am going with my husband next month to Florida, he is getting transferred next spring and we are going to look for housing. our travel arrangements have been made. i never agreed to the 456.00 charges any how, one of those buy now pay later thing. if someone would give me some guidance that would be great, would a attorney be beneficial--would like to avoid it.
