Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York

Is there a pending judgement out there

Sirs:

I just recieved some correspondance form an agency that states that they are collecting on a judgement. The debt that they are trying to collect on is a credit card debt from 1996. Is there a way to find out if indeed there is a judgement against me for this. I reside in Niagara County NY. I have never recieved any kind of paperwork that would indicate that anyone is seeking a judgement.

Thank You

Re: Is there a pending judgement out there

Any Judgements will be a matter of public record and you can check with the country where the judgment was supposedly ordered. You can also check your credit report. The reporting agencies are reasonably good at keeping up with judgments and reflecting them on your credit report.

Best of luck.
