I have DV,d a collection agency in my state they replied with three statements that where no validation. i replied with a follow letter got no reply for atleast a month until the other day a lady called my wife and asked what the letter meant and that we could not validate a judgement and that she did not have to validate the judgement. Also i got papers in the mail from them with copy of affidavit/proof of service of the judgement also they did not validate the other debt not in judgement. Is it true about that they dont have to validate the judgement. Now i need help on what to do now.

It would be much appreciated thanks


The judgement was filed in court. But the other debt is a statement sent from them and they have not validated that part. What i am trying to do is find out if i can have the judgement validated? and what to do since they did not validate the other debt.?

Thanks for the welcome i hope you can help me. :D

If it is the person who got the judgment trying to collect on it, they do not need to verify it.

If it is a collection agency trying to collect on a judgment owed to someone else, then they are still bound by the FDCPA:

[quote](b) If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection (a) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector.
