What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? VA
I am being sued for money that my under age son borrowed from his friends mother, without my knowledge, that he has not paid back. I already know that I am not liable for this loan, so this could be considered a frivolous suit. The friend lives in So.Va. and I am in No.Va., so I have to drive hours to appear in court. I want to counter sue for the expenses I will incur.... hotel room, mileage, meals. I know you can sue for whatever you want, but is it a waste of time, or do I have a leg to stand on ? Can I file the suit in MY city and have them drive all the way up here, or will this just go back & forth and never go away?
