Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Alabama

Cash Advance

I live in the state of GA where cash advances are illegal. I got a cash advance in the state of alabama. I recently had a family emergency and was unable to pay it back on time. They sent a letter stating I have until 8/10 to pay it or they will take me to court and i will have to pay all applicable fees(court fees, the entire amount due, etc). Are they allowed to do that so soon or are they just trying to scare me? I cannot have the full amount paid by then. What can I do?

If you choose to go to another state to transact business, you normally cannot later complain it is illegal in your state of residency.

If it's past due, it's collectable in court should they so choose.
