Hello, I have a few questions on judgments. First, how many times can someone take money from your checking account when a judgment has been filed against you, and is there a limit they can take? Also, if a judgment is to be filed against you, aren't you supposed to be served in person to at least sign that you have seen the summons?
Last year in November I received a letter from my family that got sent to their house (They live in RI, I live in MO). That letter was a summons to appear in court in RI. I got the letter 2 days after the court date and so needless to say I didn't go to court and the judgment was accepted by the courts (I couldn't have gone to court anyway seeing as I live in MO now and have been for 10 years). Not soon after they took all the money from my checking account and savings. I called them after seeing this and to make a long story short I gave them my current address and phone number and they told me that the person handling my case was on vacation and would get back to me.
Now six months later and no further communication between them and I (I told my family to return to sender any further mail from them as they have my current info and can mail me or call me if they wish). This week I saw that they took all my money out of my account again. Almost 6 months to the day of the fist garnishment.
Anyway, can anyone help me with my questions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't have the money to grab a lawyer and they seem unwilling to make payment arrangements.
Thanks
PS. To clear something up, I have never lived at the address that they were sending the letters to. I did live in RI, but that was nearly 10 years ago.
i received a summons with my name on it but the exhibits they have for proof belongs to someone else. what can i do when i get to court
Student Loans Being taken from husband. I am a stay at home
I am curious. I have a school loan that I had consolidated before my husband and I were married. I have been a stay at home mom for 2.5 years now. The IRS has taken his refund the past cpl of years. My question is since this is my debt will they keep taking his tax refunds until it is paid off? And he is currently working out of state. Is it true that I cant even open a checking account to pay bills because it will flag the IRS and they can take the little amount I may have?
garnishment
I go to court in four days over check garnishment. I go letter about it, but I tried to work out payment with collector and they would not work with me they wanted full amount. I was laid off could not pay it they said see you in court. I will go to court will I be required to pay full amount even if I dont have it?

husbands debit my acct.
I recently had money garnished from my savings acct. that was direct deposited in my name. The debit is only in my husbands name and so is the garnishment in his name only.

checking account garnishment
can this be done on cc debts that have already been discharged by bankruptcy. I received my discharge in sept. 08 and this account was on it.
credit
If you filed for BK and the credit cards were a part of your BK, then..no..the credit card debt should already be 'erased'. However..which BK did you file..Chap. 7 or 13? If you would please let me know what state you live in, I can look some information up for you. Thanks.

never recive letter from attorney or court
In 2000 I bought a car from a dealer through FORD MOTOR financing. When a purchase the car the dealer ask me if I want insurance in case I lost my job I don’t have to make a payment for six month, I say OK, never review the document if that insurance was included. I had the car for two years and lost my job. Since I have my six months insurance I did not pay for three months, then my car was inbound. I called ford and ask them why are you taking my car, they answer was you are three months behind, I reply I know. I am covered for six month; they reply you have to take that with the dealer, or you can pay $2500 and the case will be closed. I told them the dealer told me to speak with ford finance; they told me they will get back to me. I wrote letter to the President Copy CEO CFO and ford finance department, never heard back anything. While I am waiting fords reply I received I letter from attorney office to pay $ 7500. I called the firm and told them and fax them my letter to ford company explaining why I will not pay this money. Today I was trying to get money for grocery from my checking it has only $8.50 available, my saving all gone $9500. I called my bank and ask what is going on on my account; they told me there is a judgment of $19,000 from Ford Company here is the attorney name and phone number. This is almost my 6 years of saving, is there any office who can STOP this madness what is my choice here/ I appreciated the help.
FYI-The car was purchase for $18000 I have paid for two years $595 a month
Thanks
Andy

Garnishment & Levy
A few months back I received a summons from the court about some credit card debt that I had defaulted on. There was no date on the summons I was just told that I needed to call the attorney within 21 days and try to work something out. I called 6 days later and talked to someone at the firm and asked them exactly what was needed on my part to work on some sort of payment plan. He notified me that basically there was nothing to work out they had won a judgment against me and that my wages were going to be garnished. A few days ago I went to go use my debit card and it wouldn't work I knew there was money available so I called the bank to see what was going on with my account and that was when I discovered that there had been a freeze on my account. I am a single mother of two boys, I work full time, and go to school full time, now I can NOT access any of my money to pay bills or even buy groceries for that matter. Curious what are my rights and what can I do. Both me and my children depend on my income to live and now my back is against the wall. I have been told from several people to have my funds directly deposited onto like a prepaid debit card, could I do that without suffering any consequences!?
state taxes
I owe money to the state for a previous year. can they freeze my new husbands account if im not on it. i do have a direct deposit that goes into that account
Deposited money in another persons account
I needed quit access to my funds my friends bank down the street received a check from ins had property loss. But when I went to withdraw funds he owed back taxes and they granished my money I have proof that the funds are mine how do I get back?
Stop your direct deposits!
If your name is on an joint account and you have Garnishments they will keep taking it out. I suggest you stop your direct deposits or they will be sucked out of there!
Debt
I owe 4400 to discover, it is now 11,000.00, we lost everything, our business and home . We recently started a new business, and we are scratching out. The deby is in my name only. y name only not my husbands...they won't take my offer to pay off the original debt. We fear if we file they will get in to the business that is just now showing small profit. Can they do that? Please help ...we are not dead beats we just goy hit hard like the rest of the country, and lost every thing we are senior citizens... It would be sad to go to our grace with this hanging over us
garnish of checking account
I have my checking account on hold for tarnishing but I would like to fight it. I know that the 20 days have passed, can I still file and what do I file. I was paying my debt and thought I had paid acct in full, four months later I get notice still owe $300 and a few days later I get a writ of garnish and 3 days later acct on hold. Amount on hold is 3 times what I owe
Credit card judgement
After my husband passed away I had to stop paying all credit cards in order to pay the mortgage. One credit card company filed a judgment and put a lien on my home. They haven't gone after my checking account probably because all I have going in there is SS and a small pension from my husband's union. However, if for some unknown reason I were to put a larger amount of money in there from selling something else, will they know about it??
I live in Texas. My husband defaulted on a business loan. a lien was placed on our joint account it was then released. How many times can they but a levy on the same bank account?
Frozen checking account and check cashing
My checking account is frozen. My pension check is drawn from the same bank. Can the bank refuse to cash my check?
impact of lien in one state to another
Can a judgement filed in one state for deficiency on rent have an impact on another deposit account in another state?The rent payment was drafted from checking account and a lien has been put on that checking account from my cheching account that same state. Have since moved to another state.If I open a new account can they draw from that?
old debt
I feel that banks shouldn't have the right to give debt collectors your money surely some people have their mortgage and or car notes coming out of their accounts. For the most part most debts are higher than what a person can afford to pay out of pocket at once and Jim you are right pay everything in cash if you can i wish my job had a check card because i would be using that instead of a bank account
garnishment
I cosigned for an apartment for my daughter. She moved out without paying 2,000nworth of fees. It has been a year and a half. It has been turned to collections. She has made two payments of $150, and I have offered to settle for $1200. I just received a writ of garnishment in the mail. My daughter who is also employed has received nothing. Suggestions?
Judgment
How long after I receive a "motion of Judgment" from a creditor until they can freeze my account and take out monies. Do I have time to file a motion to vacate, or will I be personally served before this happens? I am on Social security which I know cant be garnished, but if mixed with other funds could be garnished, Also my husbands name is on my acct but his name is not on the judgement, can they still take monies out of our joint acct.
Lien on checking account
I left a condo owing 230.00 and a year later the condo association put a lien on my checking account for $3000.00. They billed me for the whole year and attorney fees. The only money I have to live off of is social security. I went to see a lawyer but cannot afford to file and am barely making it and just can't do a thing. What will happen, will it eventually come off? Or will they keep putting the same amount on year after year?
Boyfriends checking acct had money taken out by a marshal fo
