Taking/threatening an illegal action Sued w/o proper notification of suit Georgia

I wanted to choose both options above, which are : Sued me without properly notifying me of lawsuit and sued me where I did not live. Meaning, they sued me in a county where I have never lived at. I got the case file from the county they filed in. I was never served and it states it in the paper work. Let me tell you about this practice this company has with filing garnishments and lawsuits in different counties, so that the person that they are after does n't have a chance to respond, answer, or show up in court on a court date they were never notified about. Yes, that is me. The only reason I was notified about this garnishment is because my job notified me. Please keep in my that my job tried to stop the garnishment because they have been doing this for a few years now. They then threatened to go after my employer. They are


went down to - County to get the entire case file. They have never filed in - county that we lived in. No one has ever served us at all. This is n't about whether we owe a debt or not from 11 years ago. This is about their practices. We have also filed a complaint with the consumer agency in georgia. We have mailed a demand letter to - County, demanding that they cancel this garnishment and our reasons why. We have faxed a copy of this letter to the Law firm/collections agency as well. We received notification that the fax succeeded. We also sent a letter to them as well. Lastly we have filed a complaint through the attorney generals office. We are also prepared to file a civil suit demanding that wages that have been garnished, be repaid, if it is n't stopped immediately. You can not go around illegally garnishing wages through illegal procedures. Our attorney says that we have a very good case and that they are in violation of the fdcpa as well on how they went about collecting this debt. If they want to contact me, they can. Not regarding collecting this debt though. This is regarding how they can avoid legal action period. My phone number is not for them to call me trying to collect this debt either.
