QUESTION
Can I still be sued if I have no funds or employment?
Asked on Feb 20th, 2021 on Consumer Law - Florida
More details to this question:
I’m being sued by a major credit card company. I haven’t been subpoenaed yet, but the process server has been coming to my door and I have been avoiding answering. I was wondering what are my chances of getting my case dismissed if I don’t have any funds, assets or employment. I’m literally broke and I can’t imagine having to pay a credit card issuer a dime that I just don’t have. I’m currently receiving unemployment, but that is to go to basic needs such as rent and food. What are my options? If I file for bankruptcy will that drop the lawsuit against me?

ZERO chance that the case gets dismissed because you dont pay. Thats why the lawsuit was filed. A judgment is collectable for 20+ years
