What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Idaho
Please help. I just recieved a letter from an attorney that a judgement has been renewed against me and a former boyfriend. It was because of an eviction in 2004. What is exempt from them seizing of mine in the state of Idaho? Can they seize assets of mine that are in other states? Can they take my student loans or grants? Mt car? Social Security? I'm just barely getting on my feet and this is the worst thing that could happen to me right now. The other defendant named on the judgement (my ex) has a good job working for the county and a bank account. Why are they coming after me? What is safe of mine. HELP!!!!

Thanks

Thank you for the information. I would actually like to make arrangement to pay on the debt. My biggest fear is that it will backfire on me and afford them the opportunity to find out more about me to seize my stuff. Are you certain about the information you gave me? How did you find out this information? Please respond if you have a moment. Thanks again.
