Motion to Compel in a Credit Card Debt Lawsuit
First of all I am in Michigan District Court.
Midland funding LLC sueing me for credit card debt I honestly can't recall, infact looking at my current CC's I have cards older that this debit so i can't recall defaulting on this. Went for mediation, explained I have no such debt. Weeks later lawyer asked for admissions. Example questions, when did I apply for card, do I admit appling for card, what was my intention when appling for credit, do I admit to receving goods pursuant to credit card...etc...
My answer was the same to all questions.
I can not admit nor deny anything until I have received documents verifying this debt.
Now I received a Motion to Compel.
This lawyer wants me to admit to this debt and honestly I don't think this is mine, tried to call Credit Card Co and was told this was refered to collection. My credit is excellent. What is my next step to answer the motion.
My notice of hearing is 7-21-09
Re: Motion to Compel / Credit Card Debt
When were you first notified of this debt? When you were notified, did you dispute it in writing?
If you genuinely believe the debt is not yours, you may want to discuss your situation with an attorney in your area to figure out your next stes. First consultation is usually free.

sounds like identity theft...

Midland is known for this. They sue anyone they think they can get money from, as long as the person they sue has a name that is similar to the debtor. They have lost lawsuits because of this.
