that depends on your state laws if minors are liable for such lawsuits.

Legally, a minor cannot have a credit card. They are not old enough to sign a binding contract. If one was issued to them, it is either because of a mistake, or the parents also signed. If the parents signed, they can be held responsible for the debt.

Consult an attorney that knows the laws of your state.
