Re: Being sued

It is very hard to understand everything from your posting. However, it sounds like you were not aware that you were being sued. You need to go to a lawyer to show the documents relating to this and have the attorney check the court papers. It is very likely that if you were not notified of the court case that you can have any judgment reversed. However, you will need to go to court to do this. You need to go to court immediately.
