    Does this have anything to do with your partners debt from your other posts ?

    But something is wrong, if this is 15 years old, then they can't sue you for it, ( unless it is some government taxes or student loans)
    But for a credit card, if it is over I think 3 years old they can't even sue you.

    Best to hire an attorney to represent you, but you respond by saying this is not a valid debt, asking them to verify the debt and that even if it was a valid debt it is post the SOL and the case should be droped.

    If it goes to trial your defense is that the case is past the SOL.
