I just received a letter from an attorney's office representing North Star capital Acquisitions LLC. I do have two judgments in the court. I looked at the court records and the case number the letter shows is not listed as a court case. The letter is telling me to appear in the attorney's office on a certain date and time to Notice to Take Deposition in Aid of Execution. What should I do? I do not see this account on my credit report either? The letter does not show me to report to the court but to the attorney's office. The letter came from the attorney's office not the court. I just received the letter because I moved. I only have a few days to respond. I settled one judgment account recently. I think this maybe why they think I have money. Please let me know what I should do.
An attorney is an officer of the court and, as such, can issue a legally binding order for you to appear at a place of their choosing for a deposition. However, in order to do so they must first have obtained a valid judgment.
Contact the original court and verify that the attorney's client has a judgment against you. Do not -- under any circumstances -- rely exclusively on the docket number(s) listed on your credit report as those are often wrong. Contact the court directly for verification.
If you do not appear for the deposition the attorney will likely ask the court to hold you in contempt and there is a chance you can be jailed.
Now is a good time to seek advice from a local attorney.
