The best option is to retain legal counsel or at least legal advice. In lieu of such, respond to the summons with the defense that the debt is not yours. If the suit is not dismissed the person named as defendant should appear at the court date with the documents proving that the debt is invalid. Failure to appear at the scheduled hearing time will result in the plaintiff being awarded a judgment against the creditor.
What else can I help you with?
Do you have to pat a collection agency?
Assuming you mean "pay" instead of "pat," the answer is no. However, if the debt is yours - you can be sued for it. And if the collection agency wins, you can have your wages garnished or your checking account. Keep in mind that each state has a different statute of limitations (SOL) for debt, and collection agencies often try to collect on debt that is past the SOL. Once it is past the SOL, you cannot be sued for it.
