Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
Apparently a debtor of mine has scheduled a telephonic hearing regarding my debt but I have not been given ANY NOTICE from the County Circuit Court and have not been SERVED ANY PAPERS to attend this hearing. Do I have to attend if I have not been notified by the Court?

Hello. The law requires that you receive notice of all hearings. However if you know of the hearing, even without formal notice, it is probably best that you participate, even if you didn't receive formal notice of the hearing. If the hearing goes on without you there, you may have a hard time later reversing any order issued by the judge.
