Question
My husband has received a consent Judgment from a company named Unifund CCR Partners. They are stating that he opened a credit card with Chase. They have sent copies of a statement from Chase, but it is not in my husband legal name. What happens if we don't sign the consent judgment. I have answered every motion with the clerk of court stating that this in not my husbands debt. What can they do if we don't sign?
Kelly:
It is essentially a confession of judgment under rule 68. If you don't agree to it and they get a verdict for above the amount of the consent judgment, you'd be liable for the fees and costs.
