Due to the aftermath of the collapse of my 30 yr marriage … I am looking at options. A claim was filed against me in civil court regarding a motor vehicle accident that was not judged to be my fault .. no charges were laid. Therefore my insurance company rightfully refused to cover it. The plaintiffs insurance company took me to small claims court and sent the paperwork to my former address .. and my ex never bothered to get it too me until it was too late to appear and defend myself. They got a judgement in my absence .. and then to my great suprprise .. they were able to get my drivers license suspended .. .. thereby taking away my means to gain decent employment. If I was to claim bankruptcy … would that judgement be allowable … and would the suspension on my license then have to be lifted ?

Unfortunately, a bankruptcy won’t be able to help significantly. Although a bankruptcy will be able to clear you from this debt, Alberta Motor Vehicles will still retain the right to refuse you a drivers license until the debt is paid in full. In my opinion is to contact a lawyer and see what possibility exists to appeal the courts decision.
