What is the name of your state? Indiana
For approximately 1 year I have been fighting a debt collection from an old debt that was bought by a company that buys old debts. I have stated that this is not my bill. I showed up for the court hearing on Friday, March 23, and found out that I got the date wrong (my fault) and it was on March 22. As a result, the plaintiff was granted the summary judgement by default. I feel sick about this....because I really do not like the idea of having to pay for something that is not mine.
What can I do? Should I file a motion to vacate the judgement and on what grounds?
