It depends on whether your case was dismissed with or without prejudice. If the statute of limitations has run, you have a defense to the lawsuit. You should hire an attorney. Please feel free to contact my office if you would like to discuss representation by an attorney. 617-357-4898.

dismissal without prejudice is not a problem for the creditor.

Statute of limitation is a problem.
