I am from wichita falls, texas. I was involved in a traffic accident two and a half years ago. I found out soon after the accident that my insurance had been canceled two days before the accident. I had a yellow light and the lady who I hit jumped the light. There wasn't anyone on my side of the light but me. And there were people waiting at the light in the opposite side of the road from me and also the opposite side from her according to the accident report the other people located at the opposite sides of the road stated I ran the red light. last summer (05) I recieved a card at my door from the constable saying I needed to call him. I did so 5 or 6 times asking him to bring the papers to the office I work, since I didn't get off until after 6:00 pm, and the constable got off work at 4:30 pm.
well the constable told me it was nothing to worry about and he would get it to me as soon as he could. well I didn't ever get served the papers at all after a number of requests I made to the constable to meet or bring it by my office.well in april or may of this year I recieved a letter from the judges office telling me I had gotten a default judgement against me and I needed to come to the court house to look at the papers. 1 I never did get served the papers for court so I never knew when to show for court or when the court date was. Is there anything I can do to lessen the judgement against me or any other advice would be helpful.
