Lawyer refuses to send me Discovery?

when you are summoned a DV letter means nothing.you have to go to court.you can ask for validation during discovery.that is part of the legal process.

I get it.. Thanks so at the arbitration hearing with no judge. I can then ask the board for dicovery there for this collector to provide validation?

I really don't even think they are going to show up. As they haven't tried to contact me in anyway, except for the summons. I think they where just after a quick buck hoping I won't show up. Then I don't even own a quick buck now.. So not sure what its all about..

yes,demand validation as this is the first your hearing of this.it is your right.

If you would be kind enough.. What does validation look like? If they have it or or well they just be showing it to abritration board, when I request it at the hearing? Its just funny that they would not just send me it as well as the dicovery info they have when I request it? Can't see them going to the hearing without it. Can't they be disbarred for trying to scam me? Thanks allot, I feel a bit better about it all..,

I was reading through some of the other post here and shouldn't this collection agency, be sending me the validation and dicovery request before the arbitration hearing. That I requested from them like six weeks ago.

I sent out two validation requests last year, and got nothing in return--that is until I got a summons from Daniels Law Offices. The Summons was in March, I answered that I disputed the amount and validity of the debt, and a case management meeting was set up for June. I also sent them (certified mail, of course) discovery and interrogatories. They never responded, and their attorney showe up to the case management meeting empty handed. She informed the judge that we "hadn't had a chance to talk yet." I informed the judge that I had sent the plaintiff a request for discovery. He set a pre-trial conference for October, and set that as the deadline for discovery. I still have received absolutely nothing from the plaintiff. How can they expect to win with no proof? If I requested validation through discovery, don't they have to send it to me before the pre-trial, or it would seem like a pre-trial would be a waste of everyone's time. If they have documents proving the validity of the alleged debt, can they blindside me with it at court? The whole situation is really bizarre. Richard S. Daniels, Jr. claims to be the attorney (signed affadavit) working on behalf of MBNA and FIA card services, yet, despite my request, has not provided any documentation from the Original Creditor. Wouldn't they want to provide him with that, so they could prove their case? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
