Question I have found out that a letter from Civil Courts was delivered by UPS and by regular mail about two weeks later. both were returned to the courts.The person for which this letter was intended has not lived at this address for three years. I went online to check civil courts. I found that a company was attempting to obtain judgement to collect a debt.I checked the company and found information that this company purchases bad debt. This was an unknown company and the debt is unknown. Should this be ignored?
Answer Ernie,
In general you should not ignore a citation from the court. It does not stop the legal process from happening. If it is not yours or someone you know you should be OK. However, if you know the person, maybe it is best to contact them and let them know what is going on. That way they can respond before it is too late.
