How do you answer a summons from another state?
The Complaint that is attached to the summons is the document you would respond to. If the Complaint was filed in another state, you would send your Answer to the Clerk of that court from which the Complaint arose, along with whatever that court charges for a filing fee. Generally speaking, if a lawsuit is filed against you in another state, it would be a good idea to hire an attorney within that state to represent you.
How can you find out who filed a complaint against you?
Whatever agency that has served you or notified you with the complaint should be able to provide that, legally. Unless the complaint was made anonymously or asked to be kept anonymous, then legally they cannot.AnswerSometimes a private investigator can find answers to questions others may not be able or willing to provide

What can i do if i am defendant but somebody else is to blame and he is not sued?
In that situation you filed what is called a third party complaint against the person you believe is the one truly responsible. At the same time you file your answer you may include the third party complaint. It is possible that at the time you file your answer that you do not know that someone else is responsible. The court will allow you to file a third party complaint within a reasonable time after you learn that someone else is responsible. Then you serve it by summons on the third party in the same way you would serve a complaint if you were simply a plaintiff instead of a third party plaintiff. In many, if not all, courts, if you fail to bring in the third party within the action you are defending before trial, you may be barred from suing the third party even if you lose the case.
What is an alias summons?
An alias summons, in most jurisdictions, is what the summons is called on the second attempt to serve the defendant with process.

An attempt was made at a residence I have lived at for 15 years. I do not live in the States. Can a summons that was not delivered become a judgment?
Service of summons must be perfected for it to ever come to a default judgment against the defendant. I'm sure they are looking at other avenues to serve you - but, at this point, it sounds as if you have yet to be properly served. So, no default judgment (which would only come after you not filing an answer in time AFTER your summons)
