@fisthardcheese @alwayswinning36 Hello again! I emailed back the signed agreement for a mutual dismissal to the JDB attorney on 11/18/2020. Today I checked the court docs and he has not submitted it to the court. I was waiting on that dismissal to be filed with the court before I dismiss the arbitration case. Any thoughts or suggestions on what I should be doing at this point? It's been almost 2 weeks. Thanks again!

@fisthardcheese Ok, so I went ahead and sent an email asking for a mutual dismissal. He replied quickly saying agreed and sent this to me to sign! I'm no attorney and there is a lot of wording in this! Does anything stick out to you guys that I should be worried about? Thank you for the help! Mutual Release.pdf

Hi, can you copy & paste here your template? I can't open the link & really would like to view it. Thank you!

@alwayswinning36 What do you mean when you say the ball seems to already be in my corner? Should I not reply to their email on regarding a settlement? The only settlement I am looking for is a mutual dismissal so what else would I reply with? Thank you for any advice you have!

@alwayswinning36 Well I was excited because they are willing to settle & hopefully I can get a dismissal out of it. But you killed that! LOL 😆 Yes they did sue me & I did a MTC & judge approved so I filed arbitration. Yesterday was my first call from Midland’s attorney. So I’m not sure if I should call or email them back? Would email be better to keep a record of correspondence? I’m my response can I straight out ask for a dismissal? Thank you for your responses & honesty. Any help is appreciated.

I filed my arb with AAA on 11/04/2020. Today I received a call & email from Midland Funding's attorney. See below email.... Good afternoon, I have been authorized to discuss resolution of this matter, Case #xxxxxxxxxx. You may reach me directly at my mobile number, 858-204-xxxx. Alternatively, you may let me know if you have an offer for settlement. I have also left a voicemail for Mr. XXXXX at the number provided in the pleadings. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. What should I do? Do I call back or reply back via email? What do I say? I'm excited and nervous 😬

Thank you for your response. I filed it today with AAA. I followed your process step by step.

Does anyone have a sample of a certificate of service that I can send to JAMS? If not, what information do I need to make sure to include on it? Thank you!

Thank you for the advice! If they don't agree to the dismissal should I tell them that they have to be the ones to initiate arbitration? Was I suppose to mail them a copy of the order that shows my MTC was granted or does the court do that?

My MTC arbitration was granted by the judge on 10/21/2020 because Midland Funding didn't show up to court. So as I was reading the Wal-Mart CC Agreement on how to start arbitration I believe it states that Midland has to start the arbitration process. Here is how it reads. If a party files a lawsuit in court asserting claim(s) that are subject to arbitration and the other party files a motion with the court to compel arbitration, which is granted, it will be the responsibility of the party asserting the claim(s) to commence the arbitration proceeding. What do you think? Do I start the process or does Midland? The signed order by the judge does not mention who has to initiate it nor does it give a time frame to start the process by. Also, the judge mailed me a copy of the minute order & order granting my MTC, do I send a copy to Midland? Thank you! @fisthardcheese

Hi...Thank you for responding. Here are the orders which does not say who initiates it. It doesn't say much of anything. Minute Order_Redacted.pdf Order_Redacted.pdf

How long do I have to serve the JDB by mail after filing my MTC in CA? Also, do I serve the JDB or the attorney? Was I suppose to attach a blank POS to my MTC? Thanks!

I filed my MTC and points & authorities and declaration yesterday. How long do I have to serve the JDB by mail in CA? Do I serve the JDB or the attorney? Was I suppose to attach a blank copy of the POS to my MTC? Thank you!

I am following this post as I would like to know too.
