Deborah: All they can do is sue you. You seem judgment proof insofar as you have no assets. In the event, they did sue you could certain counter-claim under the FDCPA. Jason Barnette, Esq. Barnette
Richard: The lien would be removed and the person committing perjury may be prosecuted unless he recants his or her statements either in open court or by sworn Affidavit. Jason Barnette, Esq. Barnette
Claire: The statute of limitations has ran on this debt insofar as they would get a lawsuit dismissed since the debt is time-barred. Write to the new debt collector and tell them not to contact you
Terri: You need to file an Answer to the Warrant in Debt. From what you've conveyed you are not liable but, it still must be defended in General Sessions. In addition, you may have a few counter-claims
Stacy: What you're thinking of is "usuary" limits. It can only be used as an offset if the debt collector/law firm sues. Since you're in Tennessee, feel free to contact our offices. We can help
