Notice of Motion for Summary Judgment question

TeddyKG — Mon, 31 Jan 2022 17:55:36 GMT

Next to the date, time, place of motion it says March 1, 2022 at 9:30A.M. (SUBMISSION)

No assigned judge

What does submission mean? Is that the date I have to answer?

It means you need to consult with a local lawyer who practices in that court.

@SouthJamaica sorry should have been more clear. This is a large debt and we are close to lump sum settlement. They are hanging tight at 50% and I am 60%

Just curious if I have more time without lawyers as I never use them since my divorce ...

Thx

I believe they're telling you that the plan is for a judge to review information presented at hand at 9:30 AM 3/1 and issue a finding while sitting in their office and not in a courtroom.

What it means is that you should be on the phone 1st thing tomorrow morning looking to engage an attorney rather than trying to deal with this pro se.

OP, there's no time to dilly-dally on this. I Googled this so you can understand what you're dealing with. And, I think it's worth $50-60 to at least have an initial consultation with an attorney. Time is of the essence.
