Texas Statutes of Limitation

The Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code provides a 4-year limitations period for types of debt. The SoL begins after the day the cause of action accrues, (Section 16.004 (a) (3)).

Hope this helps. Have u actually been sued or threatened suit?? Did u get a summons?

Who is the company and how old is the debt? Is is a collection agency or is it the original creditor?

50 days is what I have to answer by. Plaintiffs request for admissions and I can only answer this questions with admit or deny. After reading these questions they are wanting me to admitt to the debt.

Now in exhibit c it states that I have 30 days to get my answers to this interrogatories name, dob,driver license # and ss# all of my wives (only one ha)place of employment and job title (state Gov which I do not want give out do to my work is a security Issue) and they want copy of all charges and payment made and what was bought with it (like I know what I bought with the this card years ago)

exhibit d
Plaintiffs request for production produce items and I have 50 days to do it in. All records including my finacial statement and all kinds of stuff.

Exhibt E plaintiffs request for disclosure nothing there except that is a statement that plantff request that defendant discloses within fifty days of service of this request, the information or materials described in rule 194.2 (a)-(1)

Ok u need to answer this in the 30 days and send it to them. I guess u have 50 days to give them all the information they want. This is standard procedure. They want to see what ur assets are and ur income. This is going to a court of law i don't think u have anything to worry about and if u don't produce the materials they want u can be held in contempt of court so i'd say give them what they want and what u have.
I'm gonna go to another computer and come back and post how to answer the summons.
Be back with it in a min,
Ang

Well I came home from work and went and mailed a letter to Mann Bracken llc asking for copy of discovery and all paperwork that shows proof that is my loan. Well I get back an on my answer machine is this collector with Mann Bracken from the Georgia office wanting to discuss a posible settlement. I told him I just mailed him papers asking for copies of any and all proof (validation) of this debt. Well he said that we will get the judgement wether or not you will admit to the debt or not. It took alot for me to hold my cool. He then asked if I acknoleged the dept and I told him I could not answer that till I get my paperwork back from my request. He atated that I see you know what you are doing so he said that I can call him when I am ready to settle this account. He did notice were I worked and it is a Goverment Agency in Law.

Just be careful talking to them over the phone- you don't want them to twist or trick you into saying something you wished you would not have! Once you get the validation- you can decide where to go from there. Please read the previous posts and see what others heve done when dealing with them!!

Good Luck..KAren

I have sent them a validation letters and a request for discovery and still no answer from them. I also faxed all the paper work the day I mailed it. I have just sent them a 2nd request with the answer to the suit. How long do I need to wait till I get an answer from this attorney?
