What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? South Carolina
I desperately need help with an answer for a summons and complaint. I will try to include everything: my boyfriend and his friend wrecked my car after leaving a bar. Both were thrown from the car and the friend died instantly. My insurance had lapsed at the time and now I'm being sued for $25,000,000 that has already been paid to the friends family. My bf was charged with dui resulting in death and is now in the process of an appeal. He was not the one driving but there was no evidence or witness to prove who was driving. I want to fight this complaint because I know the friend was the one driving. I feel that I should be given some kind of evidence to prove I am responsible for this judgement. Please, can anyone help me with filing an answer to the complaint? I can't afford an attorney, legal aid won't help me, the clerk of court can't help me...I don't know what to do.
