Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
medical collection
I am being sued for non-payment of medical treatment. I have proof that I have proof of payment. The company called me back and told me it was an error on thier part, but the lawsuit was filed and is now public record.
Do I have the right to ask them to cancle the remaining debt, or Any other recourse?

If you have been served with lawsuit, you need to file your answer and serve a copy of the answer on plaintiff's lawyer within 30 days of service. Otherwise, they will obtain a default judment against you. Once you file your answer, you can present your evidence of payment. You should consult your own attorney to protect your legal rights.
