Talk to your laywer he will point you in the direction of a good judge where you can get a sue case set up

They operate the same as if the debt collector was in your state. I would ask for a Debt Validation letter from the new debt collector.Many times when debt is sold the supporting documents are not sold with it. If they cannot produce the original documents you may be in a situation where they cannot sue you and have to remove the deragatory from your credit report.P.S. I am not a lawyer.
If you are not refusing to pay and you pay the debt, they would have no reason to sue you. If you refuse to pay a valid debt, they may advise their client to sue you depending on what state you are in and what the laws are there. Some states only allow original creditors to sue and not the collection agency.
Charging off the debt has not impact on the creditor's ability to sue. Charging off is simply a write-off for tax purposes. A creditor can sue any time prior to the expiration of the statute of limitation regarding of whether or not the debt has been charged off. The applicable time deadline will vary from state to state and depending on the type of debt.
The statute of limitations for debt collection lawsuits varies by state, typically ranging from 3 to 10 years. After this time, the debt may be considered "time-barred" and a debt collector may not be able to successfully sue you for it. It's essential to check the statute of limitations in your state and seek legal advice if necessary.

Yes you can, but it is a little harder to catch them. File in your state and have them served to appear in court. It is always best to consult an attorney for the best advice.
