Yes, judgment can be obtained against any person in the US in any state for an unpaid debt. How recoverable that debt is by North Carolina law is another matter. Where you run into a problem is that the credit card company is not likely in NC, and may have other recourses to recover the debt, such as filing in their state of occupancy.
