According to your question, it appears the collection attorney is aware the debt has been paid. If the collection attorney refuses to dismiss the case, you will need to show up at Court with your proof of payment and show it to the Judge. Hopefully, the Judge will agree to dismiss the case without requiring you to pay the Court costs. For future reference, once you've been sued, or a creditor is represented by an attorney, you should communicate with the attorney and not with the creditor directly.
