Q: I received 4 different letters from different attorneys saying I was being sued by a debt collection agency
The amount due was $160.00 and I had called the collections agency after the first letter asking if I was still able to pay it. She said yes but it got sent to their attorney and she would find out when I needed to pay it by and the official total amount. Am I really being sued and she just didn’t tell me?
A: If you want to see if a court case has been filed against you, you can go on the Nebraska Supreme Court's website. For a small fee, you can search for cases in your name. The law library at the Douglas County Court also has computers that you can use to search for criminal cases in your name.
