tony357 386 Posted May 14, 2018 you need to file counter suit with small claims, when you file you will find out if it is legit they will have it on record. also contact your insurance co at the time before filing they should pick it up and there lawyers will handle it but stay on top of them you need to file soon.

TheMan 45 Posted May 14, 2018 Just call your insurance company you had at the time of the incident. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gleninjersey 2,141 Posted May 14, 2018 The other driver failed to control their vehicle properly and they hit an inanimate object that was properly and legally parked. Their fault. The only way I could the other party winning is if the other driver compmetly parked next to your wife, who then opened door and hit the other drivers now parked car causing a dent / damage. I would calmy explain this to them, not their lawyer. Tell them if they wish to proceed with this nonsense that you will be countersuing for everything you can think of (damage to vehicle, emotional duress, lost wages, your lawyers costs, etc, etc) and that they will lose.

AlDente67 563 Posted May 16, 2018 They sent us a letter of default judgement in the same amount, plus $50 in legal fees (??). It says "Ordered". The letter is from Binder, whom you might recognize if you watch late night cable. Nobody was served. The Mercer county district court was copied on the bottom. Still looks like a scam to me. I guess I need to call the district. The insurance company was NJM, which is the same one she has. So in a sense, they would be party to a suit against themselves.

WP22 1,558 Posted May 16, 2018 It sounds like a "scam" masquerading as a judicial action. But if you have a docket#, call the court. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlDente67 563 Posted May 17, 2018 No docket. Everything is copied to the court, but nothing from the court itself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fred2 367 Posted May 18, 2018 Did you call the court to confirm? If they never sent anything to the court and are BSing you, I would consider sending a copy of the correspondence to the NJ Attorney General, as well as the NJ Bar Association. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t have a summary judgement without recording it. It is a scam. Contact AG.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
