    Default Can You Sue a Minor Who is Running Up A Cell Phone Bill in Your Name

    I have a situation where a minor, 16 now 17, purchased a cell phone (under my name with my consent) with the agreement that she would pay the bill. She is employeed but just refuses to pay the bill $1373. I do not want to take the mother to court I just want the minor to pay the bill. Can I take a minor to small claims court? Would she or the parents be held liable?

    Default Re: Suing a Minor Who is Running Up A Cell Phone Bill in Colorado

    Why haven't you cut off phone service? Why were you giving this minor a phone?

    I doubt that you can hold the parents responsible for the bill.
