Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Illinois
Summons for Credit Card Debt
A summons to appear for a past due credit card was delivered to my parents home in Illinois.I have not been a resident of Illinois for 8 years(living in Texas)and the credit card I'm being sued for was opened in Texas. What should I do to answer this summons as I cannot travel to Illinois to appear in person? Also, the statute of limitations has expired for this debt under Texas statutes.
