What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oklahoma.
I used to work at a hotel, Motel 6, as a housekeeper. I lived on the property. I since left and went to the labor dept because of under award wages that I was getting paid by the hotel. They awarded me over $3000 in back wages. Now he has sued me for not paying rent while living at the motel and working. The rent was coming out of my wages so I know thats not true. He is just lashing back at the labor dept decision. The court papers were served to my son in law. As he was living at my last address and moved out. I did not get to go to court so there is a judgement against me for $6000 in unpaid rent. Now I was just served papers to appear in court for an assets hearing. What can I do? First of all I do not owe any rent now I have an assets hearing. Can I get a lawyer and counter sue for damages and defamation?
