consent judgement in NC

by Paula
(waynesville, nc, usa)

i live in nc and have a consent judgment from ge money bank, they served my summons to my house which i was not here at the time, i serve a copy of my written answer to the clerk of courts within 30 days, i then received a letter dated 4/29 from the attorneys stating that i should resolve this for the amount of 1255.56 with interest - like i stated in my letter to them that i could not pay this at the time, because i was going thru a hardship. I just received a letter from the court stating that i needed to be in court on the 31st of this month. Need help.
