I was served by an officer this morning with a pretrial notice. I’ve never been sued before so I’m not quite sure what to do. Details below: Original Creditor: Credit One Account Open: May 2018 Account Closed: October 2018 Amount Sued For: $1105.15 Attachments: Bill of Sale to Midland, Affidavit of Credit One Bank & Midland, The account info (account #, Name, Bill amount, last payment date, etc.), and my first and last credit card statement. Any advice would be helpful. I’m worried this would impact my credit score that I’ve been working to bring up. Should I work with Midland to pay the debt? Should I file an attribution? Thanks in advance.

I got served papers saying that I'm being sued by Midland Credit in Chatham County. I already filed the response under "DENY". The law firm is Cooling & Winter. It was from an old credit card bill from Synchrony Bank and they say I owe a little over five grand. My court date has been set and I want to do an MTC but I don't know the first thing about how to construct one. Are there any resources? I'm not even sure what to say or the correct format. Also, do I need to file this ahead of time? Send a copy to the lawyers office beforehand? Or is it best to just wait and let it play out in court? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

This is the start of MY story to address, defend and clean up my outstanding debt. I have been sued by one of the major law firms that represent both JDB and OC in TEXAS. The firm operates in other states besides Texas, so their strategy may be the same outside of Texas. MY accounts in collections with a variety of collectors, have account totals ranging from $2k up to $14k. I will post the status of my defense actions and results as they progress. I am not working presently and hope the employment situation will change soon, as a result I have time to research and defend myself. First case has been filed and I was personally served. I answered the complaint with information provided on this great forum. I believe this forum is monitored by collectors so I will be careful and may or may not change location and dates of the process. I have not retained counsel and plan on defending myself all the way. I believe I am judgement proof presently because I have no wages to garnish or bank accounts to levy. But if I do get a job, that situation may change. Here is the most important thing I have learned to date: Beginning last year most courts in the US have allowed lawsuits to be filed on-line through the e-file system. This has made it extremely easy for Plaintiffs (the debt holders) to file suit against YOU & ME. They do not have to go to the court records Department to file claims against you. The courts like this because the budgets of the courts get the increase revenue from the filing fees. It is a lot easier for a court clerk to handle filings on-line then actually record the filing in person. Curiously I have not heard anything about this fact going on in our Court System. This is a lot of money flowing into the local governments. You can see this for your self by going to large counties that have there court records online. The filing attorneys have a standard template they use where they put your name, account number and amount of the debt. They file as many as 10 or more a day. There are courts that handle hundreds of flings a day, some charge $300 each to file, you do the MATH. This to ME is a revelation that will have unknown consequences on the public. Now going forward, We the public need to use this new filing systems to our advantage when possible, and that is what I am going to do and relay to the forum. Continued......
