Re: unable to get information about the lawsuit against me
Most courthouses have computer systems that you can use to find case information. Your employer should have sent you a document that the sheriff provided to it regarding the wage attachment. That would contain the name of the case, the case number, and the court in which it was filed. Then you can go to the courthouse and look at the file. You might talk to an attorney in your area about debt relief/bankruptcy, or at least help you work out a different payment plan.
