Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
Citation
I have been served a citation by a Credit Card company for an unpaid debt from 2004. This debt was arbitrated in 2004 and I have an award in my favor. The CC company arbitrated with another arbitration company and received an award in their favor in 2005. They have now filed suit for a judgment against my property. What choices do I have at this point?

Get a lawyer. You need to respond to the citation first, then see which arbitral award the court will credit.

You can move for summary judgment on the basis of your arbitration award and counter claim for their efforts to collect a debt that is not owed. That will get their attention fast.
