miker735 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 I was recently sued over an alleged debt and would appreciate advice. I am in New JerseyI notified the attorney in my initial letter before he filed suit that I had elected JAMS to settle any dispute. The attorney ignored my election and filed suit.I am sending the attorney a followup letter to demand he drop the suit because I had elected JAMS and he is in breach of contract.I am in receipt of a complaint from the attorney. Does each point in the complaint need to be answered if I am filing a motion to compel arbitration? Or do I answer the complaint and file a motion separately? I am confused about the correct protocol in a situation like this. Any help would be most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Seaward Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Check your local rules. In AZ we would file a motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction as substitute for an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
