The court hearing is up in window rock, and I live in Phoenix. I need to get my kids to school that day, and there isnt enough time for me to get there in time at 10 am, on top of the fact that I dont have a way to get there. I just found out a telephonic hearing was possible, but now there is minimal time to have to file motions and what not. What do I do?
The Clerk of Court cannot provide legal advice, but yours is more of a logistical question. They may be able to assist you without filing any paperwork. That is where I would start. Hopefully another attorney with experience with the tribal court will see your question and provide a more informed answer. In the interim, I would call the Clerk first thing Monday morning and ask. It cannot hurt and may solve your problem.
Judgement and attachments
I have a judgement against me from Discover (handled by Wolpoff & Abrahamson) in April 2005 or 06. They attached my bank account August 2006, and again in October 2007. There was no money in the account in Oct. They attached almost double what I owed to the account. I talked with the bank and the bank said after 90 days, it goes into collections and I have to pay the bank collection and they will pay W & A. I will be able to pay off the account in Feb/Mar but I'm not sure who to pay. W & A is telling me not to pay the bank, but them...but if I don't pay the bank it will remain in collections. i don't want to pay this amount twice. I'm not sure what to do. Can someone assist me? They told me if I don't make a good faith payment by the end of this month they are going to try another way to get their money. Even after ''I'' called them to tell them I would be paying it off in February.
