According to a bailiff, I received a summons and then a judgment in that case. Now they are coming to claim the amount from the judgment. However, I never received either the summons or the judgment.Lawyer
For this you should contact a lawyer immediately, so that it can be examined what went wrong. He can start a so-called summary execution procedure for you. An appeal may also be possible. I advise you not to wait too long.Lawyer

If you have been convicted in default (this is stated in the judgment), you should appeal the default judgment in the short term. Of course, this only makes sense if you do not agree with the claim or if the collection costs have been estimated much too high, for example. If the claim is substantively correct and you have no defense, it seems more practical to me to come to a payment arrangement with the bailiff. If you dispute the claim, you should indeed contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Good luck!Neem de volgende stap
