What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Nebraska
We have a friend who lent us $1200 back in 2011, we have paid her some back not all and we are willing to pay what we feel we owe her. Before she lent us the money she lived with us and owed us back rent and I also took a cat of hers to the vet and she was to pay us back for the vet bill, but she never did. She is threatening to take me to small claims court.
I have a few questions, if I am sending her payments monthly can she still take me to court? I have a text from her saying when she lent us the money she was paying the back money she owed us, but now she is saying it's past the statue of limitations (the cat visit was 5 years ago but I have all the bills pertaining to it). Can I use those bills and a text as proof that we don't owe her as much as she says we do.
If there was no written agreement between us on when and how much to pay can she charge us interest now after the fact even though she never said it to begin with?
Also we just purchased a home and she said if she files a judgement against us it will automatically put a lien on our house loan.
