Lorian Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 What is the logical sequence of lawsuits - or recommended path? In other words, assuming the 'usual' attempts at validation and the 'usual' violations have occurred between myself and a CA, with no resolution.....should I proceed first to small claims, or initiate the suit on the State level? Can, or should, one list multiple (FCRA and State statutes) violations in a single suit in small claims ? Which is appropriate (Small Claims vs State suits) - when, and why?Thank you - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workinninetofive Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Did you keep good records on their violations.. basically do you have them? If so, if your state is consumer friendly you can go state, or go federal. A wise user told me not to go small claims.. the judges rarely know the laws. Besides you can get more $ going higher.

Lorian Posted March 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 I have impeccable records/documentation, and was quite generous in allowing plenty of compliance time for the CA. I'm in Texas, which I don't think is terribly consumer friendly (I'm a Boston transplant); if any users here can recommend pro-consumer Judges on the state level, that would be very helpful in trying to schedule a suit.

workinninetofive Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Maybe some Texans will jump in. But if you have records like that, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
