What is the name of your state? New Jersey
here's the story:
Back in 2001 my girl made out this half ass agreement on print paper (3 sentence Long) saying that she will lend me $300 to fix my car. I signed it jokenly and not realling taken it serious. Now November 2004 i get this letter from the courts stating that i am being sued by her for $2200. She claims that the letter stated if not payed back within a week she will add $10 a week which is now equaling up to $2200. I only signed the letter for $300 dollars that i owe her and i do not never recall seeing the part of $10 dollars a week. My concern is that she added that part on to the half ass written contract and at the same time she add stuff that was not on the contract and while we were going out. I'm in the military so i was never home but after she loaned me the money in 2001 and as months went by and we were both happy we both forgot about it....we finally broke up in 2003 and then she started pursing the money. I recall her mother calling me around July 2003 stating she wanted the money and i said ok ...just let me talk to her and that was the end of it........next thing you know now Nov 2004 i'm being sued for 2200, this is outrages!!!
Throughout the relationship i paid several times fixing my car do too her jealousy (scratching my car, messing up my interior, etc) and i even had a verbal agreement that i would pay for her to come see me in North Carolina while we were going out, so we can call it even and she ok to that...Now she is pulling this crap on me..I believe she added alot to that half ass written printer paper contract.she wrote and is making it seem worse then it really was......
first thing is first when her mother called me i never refused to pay her back i only said ok let me talk to her (my EX)...to me it sounds like they waited until the $10 added up to then do something......Does she really have a case.....and if so do you think i should hire a attorney or fight this my self....also could that really be a legal document she has on me, even though there is a chance she is forging it? also all the stuff i paid for her while i was going out IE fixing car, her expenses, and trips can i use her it against her. She also was a very protective and violent person does that have any merit on the case?
thanks
