I am hoping to get some sound advice from anyone who has had to deal with Love, Beal & Nixon out of OKC, OK. I just recieved a letter of Summons (served to my by a "process-server" at my home). The summons states that "You have been sued by the about-named plantiff (First Resolution Investment Corp.) and you are directed to file a written answer to the attached petition in the court at the above address within 35 days after service of this summons upon you exlusive of the day of service. Within the sam time, a copy of your Answer must be delivered or mailed to the attorney for the Plantiff."
My first problem: I DON'T KNOW THE CREDITOR! I have never heard of First Resolution Investment Corp.
Next problem: I don't understand this letter. "file a written answer to the attached petition in the court at the above address...". My question is, do I send some kind of letter or do I need to get an official document to file with the court?
I have never had to deal with such things before. Should I just begin looking for an attorney? I really cannot afford one, but I really can't afford to pay a judgement against me either. "Plaintiff sues in the amount of 1,827.17, plus 1,470.60 which represents interest, plus 274.07 in "reasonable" attorney's fee and for such other and further relief as to this Court may seem quitable, just and proper."
I would appreciate any response on what my next action should or could be.
Thanks!
