My own experience with the court (magistrate) in getting money for a debt. Another company owed for some machine work we did and after no payment for several months we filed with the local magistrate for an additional $75.00.
They notified the other company of a court date in 30 days. The other side called the night before the court date wanting to settle for the original amount. I did not bite and it went to court.
They never showed and the judgment went against them.(They would have to provide a reason they feel the invoice was in error or not owed.). The court then informed them that a sheriffs sale would be conducted at their facility to cover the costs of the invoice, the court costs of $75.00 and any costs for the Sheriff's sale. The check arrived in a couple days for the full invoice plus the court filing fee. They paid to avoid the sheriff sale.
This is central PA. Might work different where you are.
Collection agencies can bother the heck out of someone but, other than effecting the credit report and harassment, I don't think they have much authority. JMHO

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
