Narrative (may be redacted).

Palisade Collection bought a credit card debt and forwarded it to XXXX XXXX XXXX now known as XXXX and XXXX to be collected. A judgement had been placed at least 8 - 12 years ago. They garnisheed for it. The XXXX was collecting on my salary so this discontinued. They are now telling me this is not time barred debt, that it is a " money judgement. '' which there is no explanation for. They tell me it is XXXX credit card so I am confused as to why it would not be time barred. They are now threatening to lock my bank account to take funds. My husband & myself are both XXXX and I have a XXXX XXXX. This requires a lot of medication. I can not have my bank account locked and funds taken. This would be beyond detrimental. I need someone to help me on this case.
