Utah woman loses home over unpaid $68 dental bill - gets reprieve
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A Utah woman who lost title to her house over an unpaid $68 dental bill has been given a reprieve.
The Utah Court of Appeals ruled Capri Ramos is entitled to another opportunity to void the sale of her house at a county auction for $1,550.
The collection agency North American Recovery sued Ramos in 1995 over the dental bill. She did not contest the lawsuit, never realizing the consequences. Her house in the Salt Lake City suburb of Glendale was sold the next year to a group of investors.
On Thursday, the Utah Court of Appeals sent the case 3rd District Court for a hearing on whether Ramos had proper notice of the sheriff's sale and whether the sale price was "grossly inadequate."
