Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
Debt
I am being sued for a gredit card debt. Our house burned 12/04/2006 (days after I received the paper work). My husband said to forget it, but now the company has filed other motions. I have no idea when any trial dates were set because the papers burned in our house. We have no money other than what we have to rebuild our house. I don't know what I should do. I have included the information from the county website, so you know what motions have been filed.

Re: Debt
Call the creditor's counsel and explain what happened, and why you failed to file an answer. Then see if you can negotiate a payout on the debt.
