[QUOTE="NerfedWizard, post: 4746912, member: 68865"] I don't know why people seem to assume that a US judgment would not be enforceable in Poland. Would it be? - I don't know. I'm not a Polish lawyer. But I would NOT be surprised if it is enforceable, and I would NOT be surprised if WotC could use that judgment to make the OP bankrupt, seize his assets, take money directly out of his wages, get an order for the sale of any property that he owns, etc. Can they do any of those things? I don't know. It presumably depends on Polish law, and on US law as well. The bottom line is that the OP, if he is who he says he is, needs to get legal advice urgently. Advice on the enforceability of US judgments in Poland can only really be had from a Polish lawyer. You may well be able to get some free "pro bono" advice from a Polish lawyer or (if you can't get a lawyer) from a law student. Advice on defending or settling the US action means you will also need a US lawyer - again, think about getting free "pro bono" advice from a US lawyer or (if you can't get a lawyer) from a law student. Advice on the lawfulness of your actions may depend on Polish law or perhaps on US law. Of course WotC may need to serve you with the papers first, but that may only require posting the papers to your home address or may require delivering them via the Polish court system; some jurisdictions may allow orders for substituted service for instance if you are evading service (so service could be effected by advert in a newspaper). In some jurisdictions it may even be possible to serve documents by e-mail! The above is all speculative and absolutely must not be treated as advice. I am absolutely not in a position to provide advice on this case. However, I can say this:- GET LEGAL ADVICE ON POLISH AND US LAW. Your legal advisers will be able to tell you whether the best thing for you to do is to fight the case, ignore the case, negotiate and settle the case, consider the options available to you under Polish insolvency law or something else. I absolutely cannot advise you on any of those things. [/QUOTE]
