    Judgement Debtor needs assistance paying/options
    I am the Judgment Debtor sued was given a break but still owe 2,200.00 $35/a week. It says to contact the court Clerk if this is a problem in fine print. I did, and the just gave me the process book. I called the Connecticut assistance and would not speak to me because I am not low-income. I make a fair wage, but my bills/debts totally drain me out. So I cannot afford to pay this. What are my options, I Imagine I have to prove to the court, but how do I go about doing this? Thanks.:cool:

    Your options are bankruptcy or arriving at an arrangement with ALL your creditors. If a judgement was awarded to a creditor, they can use that judgement to garnish your salary or attach bank account.

    Inability to pay is not a defence.

    All showing them you bills and statements will do is have them tell you to budget better.
