credit card debt letters

is it possible for a person to be put in imprisonement due to non paying of his credit card debt?
i have an officemate who receive various letters from law offices which requires her to pay her credit card debt, and saying that their are goin to file a case against her. sometimes i even answered some harassments from this various law offices that saying their goin to conduct a warrant of arrest for my officemate. just worried if she’s really be sent to prison. thanks
If this is in the United States there is no Debtors Prision. Unless she committed fraud she can not be arrested and put in jail. If she really does have letters, or even if they were verbal threats, stating they will put a warrant out for her arrest. Then she needs to read up on the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act(FDCPA). As that is illegal and she can actually turn around and sue them.
