Re: summons

It sounds like you have been sued by Midland Funding. Most of the time they sue on defaulted credit card debt. I always recommend getting a lawyer when you have been sued. You have twenty days from the date they left you the papers to file your answer with the court. After that, they can ask for a default judgment. Feel free to call my office if you have any additional questions.
