    Does it describe how she was supposedly served with process? Does it have the name of the court, and a case number?

    • If so, check with the clerk of the court to see if such a lawsuit has been filed.
    • If not, it's a ruse.

    It does not say how they served her, an the court system is Todd county KY an she lives in Clarksville TN an TN is her mailing address, she was never served anything but these papers from KY an there was no court date, there was also a foot note.from the judge saying since she was a defendant they don't have to notify her
