If your bank account was mistakenly levied for not filing tax papers properly and now there is a judgment on your account how do you remove it?
You need to get a copy that ALL TAXES have been paid from the IRS or if in Canada, Revenue Canada and take a copy of this document for the banking institution (but take in the original as well) to the banking institution and show them the proof. Sit there until they have completely absolved this mistake on your account.
What else can I help you with?
How do you appeal a default judgment to which you were never served a summons?
You have 30 days to respond to a default judgment by going to the courthouse and filing an appeal. A new trial will be set where the judge will either give you another opportunity to hear your side or vacate the judgment if you can show that you were not properly served.
Can a lien be filed after a judgment has been made?
Yes. Follow the rules in your state for filing a judgment.
When and how are judgment liens removed?
they are removed by the act of filing a satisfaction of judgment with the county clerks office
If a judgment has been issued for a repossession deficiency will it affect a 401K when cashed in and can they place a lien on your home which is homesteaded or take the money if it is sold?
A judgment creditor cannot levy on your 401(k), but they can levy on your bank account and money from a 401(k) distribution would be vulnerable if it was in your bank account at the time the levy occurred. Filing a homestead does not prohibit a judgment creditor from filing a lien against your home. The judgment creditor can wait for you to sell or refinance your home. If there is enough equity in your home to pay off the mortgage and your homestead, there might be enough equity to be able to force a sale of your home.

What is the difference between a summary judgment and a default judgment?
Basically, a default judgment is something you did NOT argue about in court by filing answers to the Summons and Complaint, and the Summary Judgment is something you did argue about IN COURT.
Will filing chapter 7 bankruptcy get rid of a credit card judgment?
Yes. It is the most common reason for filing for bankruptcy. If the judgment creditor had an execution issued and attached any equity in your home, you may have a problem.
If a collection agency freezes your bank account and on the next day you file for bankruptcy can they still freeze your money?
A collection agency, or any party, can only freeze your bank account IF they have sued your first and won a judgment against you. If you file for bankruptcy, it will not immediately release the levy on the account. The court that rendered the judgment must be notified of the bankruptcy filing, as well as the judgment creditor. The account could remain frozen until the outcome of your bankruptcy. If your bankruptcy, and the judgment debt is discharged, then the bank account must be released. It is possible to release a levy before discharge, but it will usually require the bankruptcy attorney to do it.
How do you remove a judgment from your credit report that is not valid?
File a motion to vacate based on that fact. After the judgment is entered there is a SOL for filing that motion.
Can a creditor add an account to your bankruptcy when the account was opened after filing and you didn't include it yourself?
No, debts acquired after the filing cannot be included in the BK petition.
Do you enter request for default judgment before filing for default judgment?
Yes, before filing for a default judgment, you typically need to enter a request for default with the court. This process involves notifying the court that the opposing party has failed to respond or appear in the case. Once the court enters the default, you can then proceed to file for a default judgment, which may include submitting documentation to support your claim for the judgment.
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)
