dbinaz Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I've sent several letters to LVNV Funding req DV. I've not rec'd a reply therefore I wanted to file a basis of lawsuit. I read the CA must have a registered agent in your state. I did find that Sherman and Resurgent Capital have a reg agent in NC, but nothing comes up under LVNV. Since they are all affiliated can I still file?Has anyone done a basis of lawsuit before?Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebtLawRookie Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Well, just about anyone can sue anyone for anything. But the facts are you need to prove your basis of claim and prove any damage. If I were you, I would look more towards FDCPA and FCRA violations. Other than that, you may be wasting money and time filing a complaint and pursuing something not worth it.And thats what it all really boils down to........is it worth it?

willingtocope Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Actually, as long as they mark your CRs as "in dispute", they can take as long as they like to respond to a DV. If they're not marked "in dispute", then you can sue them under the FDCPA...search for the 1-2 punch.Otherwise, you don't have much of a case...

There are some tactics posted elsewhere on the board where people have complained to the CRAs after a year or so...I don't know if that actually works.

OMGWhatHaveIdone Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 I thought they were not allowed to continue to report during the DV process, as that's considered a form of collection activities. I can understand if you DV'd more than 30 days after receiving the first dunning letter from the CA, because they are not obligated to provide you with the information you request in the DV, but what if you DO DV within those first 30 days?
