Need help to answer Midland Funding complaint

[anotherday.gone]

The first letter I got from Midland's attorney claimed I owed over $16,000 for an old debt that was charged off by Chase. In the summons and on the Chase statement they sent for my debt validation, the debt amount is just over $14,000 (please see below), is this legal?

I have no idea how to anser this summons. Could someone just give me a rough idea if anything? Thanks everyone.

In the Third District Court, Park City Department in and for Summit County, State of Utah.
