FAQ
Ing to Black's Law Dictionary, an “affirmative defense” is “a defendant's assertion of facts and arguments that, if true, will defeat the plaintiff's or prosecution's claim, even if all the allegations in the complaint are true.” There are a variety of affirmative defenses across different legal issues.
An affirmative defense is any reason(s) that the plaintiff (the collector suing you) should lose the case. One common example is that the debt is too old because the statute of limitations has run out. You can learn more about affirmative defenses from Texas Law Help.
All documents you want to file with the court must be filed with the District Clerk's Office through e-filing, in person, fax, or by mail. Contact the District Clerk's office with any questions at (817) 884-1574 or dclerk@tarrantcounty.
Affirmative defenses are reasons or excuses why you should win your debt collection case. A properly asserted affirmative defense can help you win the lawsuit even if the plaintiff can otherwise prove the other elements of its case. Timing is critical, however.
This is done by putting your request in writing and sending it to the court and to the plaintiff. Once you have been served with the citation, you have 14 days to file an answer, which is your response to your lawsuit. You must give your answer to the court and also send it to the plaintiff.
In Texas, third-party debt collectors and credit bureaus are governed by Chapter 392 of the Finance Code, as well as any other applicable state or federal law.
Ignoring debt collectors might cause further issues. It might make your financial burden larger. You may get served a lawsuit if your creditor believes you owe them a significant debt.
Warrant Forgiveness allows citizens with outstanding Class C warrants in the City of Fort Worth to address those warrants without fear of arrest and settle their cases often for reduced fines and fees.
Increased Transparency in Debt Collection Communication The new Texas debt collection laws require debt collectors to offer additional information about the debt they're attempting to collect. This includes a breakdown of the original amount owed, any added interest or fees, and the name of the original creditor.
Specifically, the rule states that a debt collector cannot: Make more than seven calls within a seven-day period to a consumer regarding a specific debt. Call a consumer within seven days after having a telephone conversation about that debt.
