Judgement Obtained by the EDD without Notice to Appear

[CAEDDVictim]

I'm a resident in the state of California. I had an overpayment from a previous year that has been subsequently paid off via unemployment deduction. I now have an outstanding balance of penalties an interest that equal nearly $1000. I have receive notices of judgement from the Superior Court, however, I was never delivered a notice to appear to have the opportunity to defend myself. How is this possible? Why am I not allowed due process?

Another issue is that I am unable to negotiate the fees to be lowered. Even the IRS works with you. How does the EDD have this much power and why is it impossible to fight them?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

You should be posting on one of the employment forums. There's a poster named commentator who's the resident expert on unemployment. The forum you're on isn't specific enough for your questions.
