I owe 8k for a car that I financed 10 years ago, they still have been sending...

...me paperwork? Hi, 10 years ago, when I was 19, I financed a used car. After having the car for a little over 2 months, it started to really fall apart on me and I was putting @ least 50-100 a week into getting the car repaired. I called the finance company and told them that I could no longer afford to make the car payments and to keep putting money into repairs and asked if they could perhaps lower the payment or help in any way. The lady I spoke to was very rude and said that wasn't their problem. So, needless to say, I dropped the car off at the finance office and told them to take the car back.....I have been avoiding them for almost 10 years, but now I just got a summons to court * a petititon to revive judement* paper in the mail. Is there anything I can do to get these guys off my back? I mean, I no longer live in the state where the courtdate is!!! What do I do???
