Long story short she never went to court, and today she finds out there is a $486 freeze on her checking account. $386 for the bill plus some $100 fee of there own. Now everything I have read on here and elsewhere has led me to believe that this is very illegal. Am I wrong here? I was under the impression that SOL on medical was 7 years in NJ? Today I phoned them and said they were way beyond the SOL and if they made me fight this there would also be a lawsuit to follow. Has anyone ever heard of anything like this happening? And what should the next step I take be? She is a single unemployed mother of Two, and this bill is from when she was 19. :confused: |
She needs to get the judgement vacated.She can check for legal aid if she has no money.
