When You Receive a Summons
The first thing you should do when you receive a summons is prepare to file a response. If you don't challenge it within 20 days, they will return to the court and ask for a default judgment to be issued against you.
A default judgment means your wages can be garnished, liens put on property and bank accounts drained, to pay your bill. Fighting a default judgment is difficult so the time to act is before a judgment is entered. Even if there is a judgment you should take protective action.
