Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Colorado

6.5 years ago a credit card company had a judgement passed on me for a debt owed to the by me and this was in the state of WI. I couldn't and didn't pay on this at all. 5 years ago I moved here to Parker CO and didn't hear any more til the summer of this year. A law firm in Denver took this case to court in Douglas Count, CO and got a judgement against me and now garnishing wages and I was never informed that it was going to court here, is this legal? The statute of limitations in WI is 7 years I believe and 6 years here in CO. Which state law would be correct

If they already got a judgement against you - they they may start collecting at any point there after. The statute of limitations is for them to bring the original action. Bankruptcy would be an option that would stop your garnishment immediately. We can help you.
