Can you go to jail for contempt for a civil case in Colorado?
i don't know about Colorado, but where i live, Arkansas, they are threatening me. a sheriff's deputy has been to my house for the past 2 day. i did not show up for a court date for a credit card bill. they now have a "body attachment" for me. what i didn't know is that the statute of limitations has run out. 5 years in Arkansas. i almost paid the credit management company the first time the sheriff showed up. i had left 3 msgs. with their lawyers office. i finally got ahold of someone at their office. i asked why they didn't call me back, and seriously i was told that "we don't return debtor's calls" i just lost it and hung up. but, that was really the best move, because if i would have made a payment, then the statute of limitations would be null and void. so long story even longer, i have an attorney friend who is going to file a motion tomorrow to "set aside" the judgment because of statute of limitations. obviously i am worried or i would not be up this late!
