you don't have to be available..but when a process server comes..you must accept the papers..
and be sure to file a written answer...but they can sue but cannot make you "be available"...and
I would suggest you send them a short letter...."Do not contact me again except in writing as
required by the Fair Debt Collection Act."...then if they call...get the name/address of caller..as they would be subject to $1000 penalty and attorney fees
