A US court will award damages against you in the US if you lose. US courts have no jurisdiction in Canada. You simply default on the case and walk away. The judgement is made in the US and any legal remedies apply in the US only. You don't have to declare bankruptcy or do any other nonsense.

Not legal advice.

no attempt was made to settle the matter before court.

i was just summoned to court after a while of them trying to look for me

That's intense - do you even have high volume of sales to be accused to this level?

i actually do not. probably less than 100k. which is why im finding it ridiculous. plus i dont even have money for them to tke but this is such a headache. every time i get an email it drives my insane to see it

Something doesn't add up, how do you spend 20k on a lawyer before you've even got to court? Fees sound too high and the story is incoherent....

Also in terms of legal advice, I doubt there are specialists in intellectual property law on the forum so unfortunately it's unlikely you'll find the right answers here.

Likely one of the mistakes you made was responding to the letter in the first place :( unfortunately
