I furnished my current employer at that time a 2 weeks' notice (was supposed to give a 3 months' notice) 3. End of last year i received a court order to appear in court as I failed to pay the amount owed 4. I immediately called the hr manager and negotiated to pay in installments, the hr manager said it the payment period was lengthy (2 years) 5. Assuming that i have clarified the matter with the employer, I did not go to court 6. I just received a judgment order against me to pay 7000+8% interest and legal cost and that they will proceed with further legal action against me if I did not settle the amount in 7 days.     Please help, what should i do?   Minder Answers: As we all aw
