I had a credit card that the account was opened in 3/15/2000 and the account was chardged off on 5/30/2003. I have received a letter from an attorney that they will put a judgment. Can they do that on an old account?

It sounds like this old debt could be outside the statute of limitations. If it is, then this threat is illegal. We would urge you to get a free consultation with a consumer law attorney as soon as possible.
