anti-something Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 how do i find out how 'business name' is organised? i'm guessing its a sole prop coz theres no record of it being a corp on the tx website, and they dont put LLC next to their name.from what i've found, 'business name' is the registered DBA of 'trustee' 'trustee' doesnt exist as a corp, a DBA or anything else i can think of to search for. but 'trustee' owns lots of real estate.i'm having difficulties trying to pin down who 'trustee' is.

willingtocope Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 In Ohio, the business would have to have a license to do business in the state. There ought to be some record of them on the texas site. Do you have anything that has a state ID or IRS EIN number on it? They may be incorporated in another state...but again...in Ohio...they'd still have to licensed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anti-something Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 to do business as a sole prop, all they need here is a registered DBA, which they have.'trustee' on the other hand has no records at all, except for deeds and the DBA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 If they are a sole proprietor or a partnership, the person with the sole proprietarship has no legal protection against creditors for the business....go after the person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anti-something Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 i'm thinking i will send a letter to the 'trustee' with the DBA informing them of the judgment, as i really dont know if they know about it, i've only dealt with the management so far. i have just sent letters to the business address, but the DBA has a different address on it, so maybe i'll get more joy there.
