I have posted but it has been a while --- today while I was at work my 14 year old son called and said that someone called a "Constable" had come and had him sign for a paper for his daddy - I got him to open and read it - one of the credit cards has filed a claim with the magistrate court.

You need to find out what debt you are being sued over.

I think that I wasn't clear about the bill - this isn't a bill that is mine - it is one that is my husband's in his name alone.

First things first: if the bill is only in his name and depending on your state, it may not be your financial responsibility.

I have seen his credit report - not in the past six months or so - but he has everything negative.

Collection agencies and third party debt collectors can all file suit to collect.
