Hello everyone. Less than a week ago was served with summons and a complaint from CACH LLC. I have researched on how to fight this and have found a lot of good info from this forum. I have yet to answer this lawsuit. I am looking for any ideas or opinions on the best way to go about fighting this. If you have any info (links, forms, examples, defenses) that I can use, I would appreciate it greatly. Thank again. I can’t wait to get a conversation started and get this ball rolling. 1.Who is the named plaintiff in the suit? CACH LLC 2. What is the name of the law firm handling the suit? They might be watching 3. How much are you being sued for? $7000-$8000 4. Who is the original creditor? ELAN 5. How do you know you are being sued? I was served 6. How were you served? In person 7. Was the service legal as required by your state? Yes 8. What was your correspondence (if any) with the people suing you before you think you were being sued? Debt Validation Letter 9. What state and county do you live in? Oregon/ Multhnomah 10. When is the last time you paid on this account? March 2011 11. What is the SOL on the debt? 6 years 12. What is the status of your case? Suit served? Motions filed? Summons Served. Complaint Filed 13. Have you disputed the debt with the credit bureaus (both the original creditor and the collection agency?) Yes 14. Did you request debt validation before the suit was filed? Yes. I sent a debt validation letter (certified mail) to CACH LLC on 1/30/15. They received it but they did not respond, however I did receive a letter two months later from the law firm that is currently filing the suit against me. This letter did not contain the information that I specifically asked for in my debt validation letter to CACH LLC. 15. How long do you have to respond to the suit? (This should be in your paperwork). If you don't respond to the lawsuit notice you will lose automatically. In 99% of the cases, they will require you to answer the summons, and each point they are claiming. We need to know what the "charges" are. Please post what they are claiming. Did you receive an interrogatory (questionnaire) regarding the lawsuit? 30 Days to respond. (Served on 3/23/16) 1. Breach of Contract 2. Account Stated 3. Unjust Enrichment (What would be a good defense for this?) 16. What evidence did they send with the summons? An affidavit? Statements from the OC? Contract? List anything else they attached as exhibits. No Evidence
