I recieved a Notice of Docketing of Judgement yesterday. It confirmed that a judgement of money was ruled in favor or "XYZ Bank" vs my x-husband and myself.
The judgement was in reference to a repossessed vehicle awarded to my x in our divorce that he voluntarily gave up. He decided that he no longer wanted the vehicle and the high payments with it. He did not consult me with this stupid decision. Since we did not re-finance the vehicle in our divorce (I know, very stupid of me) I know I am still attached to this debt legally.
My X called me about a week before the hearing to let me know that he was served a summons to court for this matter. He did not give me a time or location of the summons. He thought that I would also be served and to maybe expect a sheriff to come by sometime.
I was never served a summons by mail or in-person.
I am wondering if it would be in my favor to be able to Vacate the Judgement based upon my not being served by mail or in-person? Does Minnesota law state that I should have been served in either of those manner?
Thank you.
