Ok, here is the situation.
I was served with papers notifying me that a creditor was suing me for an outstanding balance from the hospital on the birth of my daughter. I sent them a check for the full amount being requested, which included the interest they are asking for.
A couple weeks later, I get a letter from the law firm, requesting $103 more dollars, with no explanation as to what this balance is for.
I sent them back a fax, requesting documentation of these futher charges and have heard nothing back.
In the meantime, I received notification from the court that our court date has been set for November 8.
I don't have the $100 sitting around ( I took an advance off my credit card to pay the initial $2200) so what are my options here?
I do not believe that they can force me to pay a balance with no substantiation, yet here comes the court date.
What should I do?

I know they will have to show the judge documentation. The problem is if we step foot into court, then they get to collect legal fees too.
