Three year SOL for Conversion. But it is up to Defendant to plead the statute of limitations not the Judge to bring it up, so you might consider filing suit in General Sessions for under $25K if you can server her. If you get a Judgment, then start hunting her down as far as a job, land, bank... View More

If you cannot get this off your record by disputing it with the credit bureaus, then you will need an attorney. That amount of money may not justify the expense. It would help to get a copy of the judgment from the Court it was entered. Then you can talk to the attorney about suit. It the... View More

How did someone get your Title? Apparently they convinced LEO's they owned the car, and may have filed an Action To Recover Property, where you should have been served.

Someone fraudulently cashed a check I sent to pay my trash bill. The trash company never received it, so they still say I owe the bill. Who is responsible for getting the money - the bank, or the trash company?
answered on Jan 13, 2023
Most likely you.
If someone intercepted a check you wrote to pay a bill and wrongly cashed it, you can legally pursue that person and possibly your own bank as well as the bank that cashed the check.
But you do still owe your trash company and should pay it. This time I recommend... View More

What is your question? Hire a competent attorney; do not talk to anyone about the incident; might be time for a new phone and number; work and stay out of trouble; and prepare for a rigorous Preliminary Hearing.

They keep telling me it's about ready. The shop I took it to, outsourced the job. I do not even know where all the clock is. Please tell me what to do.

Defendants have no right to discovery at the Sessions level. But you should at least read what is in the Arrest Warrant, as sometimes subpoenas, implied consent forms, fingerprints, etc. are with the Warrant. Might need another attorney.

You may or may not have a Governmental Tort Liability Act/ 18 USC Section 1983 action, as it sounds like you were not charged. But you will need damages, which are capped. Consult with a competent attorney.
Did the creditor win a judgement against anyone with that name at my address or against specifically the person who made the contract. Can I be considered liable for the debt? Do I need to countersue this creditor for the mistake?

You must hire an attorney. Setting aside such a Judgment will be difficult and will require some very precise pleadings. You will have to go to Court and prove you are not the proper Judgment Debtor. Time is running against you.
