Howdy. Well, it's been 2 weeks since my last communication with my troll, I've take a lot of steps to protect myself, consulted an attorney etc... Fingers crossed this will all pass, but I'm curious if anyone knows how an actual lawsuit would manifest.
ie, in California, if these guys actually decided to pursue a lawsuit do they just mail something to me declaring it? or do they have to physically send some guy to "serve" it. If they do decide to take some kind of action, how long do these people putter around before doing so? ie, if another 2 weeks goes by can I let out my breath? a month?

you would need to be served in person, they have up to the 3 yr statute of limitations to do as they please, chances are good you will hear from Getty again, and they will escalate it to Seattle Attorney Timothy B.McCormack ( Note I use the term "attorney" very loosely, as he is more of a collection agent ), they may also send it to a collection agency, which is also discussed in great length on these forums.
