I'm being sued by ex-girlfriend for using her credit card 2.5 years ago!
(State of CA) My ex-girlfriend from over 2 years ago is suing me for $7500 of credit card debt on one card - Mastercard I think, in small claims court. She is claiming that I alone used the card to rack up these charges. I NEVER SIGNED A CREDIT CARD AGREEMENT AT ALL, whether it be as co-owner, authorized user or anything. Nor did I ever have a card issued to me with my name on it. Both of us ran up these charges during our relationship because it was the only credit card. If I did use it alone for anything, the lending of it was completely voluntary on her part. We would use it at bars, for gas, and everyday shopping trips. If she shows receipts, there are many that might have my signature on them because she used to prefer that I sign when we used it. What do I need to know about the way credit card agreements are handled legally in a case like this? And does anyone have advice? Thank you.
