    Summons
    Mr. Yet help! I received several summons recently to which I replied within the 20 calendar days with an intend to defend letter. I have now received one notice of hearing for a status conference. The court indicates that the attorney for the plaintiff can appear by telephone and demands I appear in person. Do I formally object to this, or move to dismiss with prejudice for lack of jurisdiction when the plaintiff does not appear. The notices says the following: This matter has been scheduled upon receipt of an 'answer' filed by myname.

    How am I to interpret the emphasized 'answer' in that statement.

    Also I have not yet asked (is this discovery?) the plaintiff's attorney for a cirtified copy of the original signed contract or a complete account of the debt.

    Finally, in some cases it is the credit card company filing against me and in others it is a third party debt collector. Is there any difference in how these should be handled?
    Thank you

Another summons again. [ 4 Answers ]

This time is on $500 from a company that I have not heard of and they attached a copy of a Promisory Note that I signed in November, 2001. I do not know the status of limitations in Florida. Probably $500 plus court costs and attorney's fees doesn't sound like much, but my husband and I were...
