Attention Lawyers or Legal advisers UPDATE on #23

Just called the court house. Evidently there was a judgement against me 8 years ago that was never sent to me. It is being sent to me now.

I asked specifically why it has been 8 years and there is nothing on my record and I haven't heard anything about this. I was told there was no conviction, no order of license suspension, and no points assessed. I just needed to pay a fine and it has been turned over to collections for non-payment. The court confirmed this company does in fact do collections for them.

I feel like I am still getting screwed here.

Well update on this one, hubby refused to pay to Florida, he rather deal with IL fees where it should be going, not to Florida collection agency. They don't forward anything more than what we owe them or they will garnish wages or suspend licenses or we can not renew our anything thru DMV. The latest news from the courthouse, they have NO idea who they sold the "debt collection" to and they do not want to take the time to research it.

Guess what, we are still able to renew our licenses, plates and all that jazz and still get new things to go with the cars we own.

The company out in Florida is a joke. Empty threats, naaaaaaaaah! The state don't care if you paid or not, they wrote it off when they could not locate him at all. Its too long ago and too bad the time statue of limitations should have ran out by that time. If they are not going to collect, what could they do?

Hubby was stopped by the cops a few times due to road checks, everyone has to be check out to make sure they are not drinking or driving without insurances or some warrant or outstanding warrants, nada on hubby and they told him to have a good evening and drive safe!

When it will be the statue of limitations going to expire? Its going to take a very LONG time to get everyone's fines to be collected. Another waste of money!

But what about his credit report?

Its excellent! The banks LOVE him! His FICO score is 801

As for ME, since I filed bankruptcy before we were married, the banks won't touch me...my grade is 680.
