Wage garnishments and collections
in Law ·
Hi, I'm new here and could really use some help. I just received a court order that says this:
The court has ruled
The debtor is hereby directed to initiate a lawsuit within 15 days of this order becoming final, seeking to have the execution declared inadmissible due to the statute of limitations having expired.
Reasoning
Under court order case number CV-2050 from February 12, 2013, an execution was ordered against the debtor's monetary assets.
After being served, the debtor filed a timely appeal on February 19, 2013, claiming that the debt had already reached its statute of limitations.
The appeal was delivered to the creditor for a response on March 11, 2013, but they failed to respond within the required 8-day window.
Since the debtor's appeal is based on the claim that the debt has expired under the relevant provisions of the Enforcement Act, the court—in accordance with Section 52(3) in conjunction with Section 50 of said Act—has instructed the debtor to file a formal lawsuit to have the execution declared inadmissible.
I would be incredibly grateful if someone could help me figure out my next steps as soon as possible.
