After reading the discussion page: Even if you paid the store the money, the court may have no knowledge of this. Respond to court to answer the summons and bring the proof of payment with you.

In Florida If you failed to answer a traffic summons would you be able to renew your license?

Go to court and set things right, ASAP.

What is the difference in a real subpoena or summons and a scare tactic?

First of all courts do not use "scare tactics". A court summons can be delivered by a process server, a sheriff, or registered mail, and will be appear similar to: IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF ("name of City, county and state"). "So and So" as Plaintiff VS John Doe as Defendant Case or Docket Number ________ Division ___________ Court Date___________ And so on and so on, ending with the name of the attorney representing the plaintiff or the plaintiff's name if it is Pro Se. And there will be an official state seal stamped on the bottom with the signature of the court clerk or deputy court clerk. FYI. A civil summons does not require the defendent to appeal in court to answer the complaint. However, if said defendent does not appear he or she will lose the case by default and an judgment will be entered in favor of the plaintiff. A criminal summons or a subpoena of any type is a direct order of the court for the person whose name appears on such to appear at the time and date indicated. Any person(s) not responding to such an order can be (and probably will be) charged with contempt and taken into custody by authorities to await a hearing on the matter. ALWAYS respond to a subpoena.

You filed your bankruptcy and a couple of days later you received a garnishment letter can you get the garnished wages back?

To start with you would receive a copy of the Garnishment Summons from the court at your last known address. You would need to advise your attorney so they can "Quash" (no not squash) the garnishment. If at that time your employer has taken any funds from your pay and either sent them directly to the judgment creditor or to the court, the attorney would then request/demand the funds be returned to you- the judgment debtor. If the court receives a copy of the bankruptcy at any time prior to the return court date, they return the original payment to the employer who will then refund back to the employee.
