Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
I had a judgement placed against me several years against a debt for my husbands business where I signed the personal guarantee when applying for credit. The lawyer for the company keeps sending interrogatories to me every six months or so asking the same questions. I have turned them in twice to him already. I have not done it this last time and just received a notice of motion for contempt of court. He has already taken all of the money out of mine and my childrens bank account once. I have no money. What is the best route to take? Bankruptcy? Is there another option?

If a judgment has been placed on you - and you have answered the interrogatories - go to the court and tell the judge at the hearing that you have answered these twice. Let the judge know you are head of household and have no income. They cannot garish your bank account which is what they are looking for - more money to collect from you. You really should have an attorney but if you cannot afford one , then appear for that hearing and tell your side.
