Florida lawsuit summons on credit card

I am in Florida & was served a summons in Palm Beach County for a Discover credit card bill--I have no assets & my house is in FC--also no job currently--they served the summons papers at my home to my daughter who has special needs not to me--I am not filing BK because I can not afford an attorney and I dont believe in it the attorneys are handling the collection for Discover

Re: Florida lawsuit summons on credit card

Typo in the last answer. It is 15 years old, not 25 years old.
