So, I'm being sued. My Father passed away when i was 17. He had no will so I left the house alone seeing as I wasn't even of age. I moved in with my mother until I turned of age, and then moved in with a friend back in my home town. Today, I received a summons saying I'm being sued and that 'This is an action to foreclose a mortgage on real property...' I'm posting this because I find law interesting and I think some of you fella's do, too. I'm researching legal aid right now. I'm willing to forfeit the house to the bank if that keeps me out of trouble. What do you guys think? Are they in the right to hold me responsible for the house? What advice do any of you have? Do you think I can just forfeit the house and that will be the end of it?
