willingandobedient 0 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) Hello, Being sued by Shermeta Law Group in MICHIGAN. Filed my answer, defenses and sworn affidavit of denial on time. Sent my jdb discovery request, 30 days have passed with no response. Followed up with a phone call then a meet and confer letter. JDB sent a settlement offer in the mail which I never responded to soon after receiving my meet and confer letter. Offered to settle for $1000 instead of the original $1886. JDB followed up with a call to then tell me that he doesn't have to respond to my interrogatories request because the judge hasn't started discovery yet. Is this true? The jdb hasn't sent me any interrogatories request only the original summons with nothing attached. Edited December 28, 2017 by willingandobedient incorrect term used.

Harry Seaward 1,356 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 I wouldn't mess with discovery if I could help it. Arbitration may be the way to go on this. Who is the OC, and when did you open & default on the account? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Goody_Ouchless 507 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Harry is right - they legally own the debt you defaulted on. Playing legal games will only help prove their case, but they aren't playing those games because you are headed for an MSJ. Get out of it with arb or take a deal.
