I do not know exactly when this issue began to hit west Odessa, or how far a field it has spread through out the Ector county . In July my son- in- law found a yellow note from the sheriffs office , saying that he needed to contact Deputy Brown. When he walked into Deputy Brown office he was served with a lawsuit, the plaintiff a collection agency. A month later, we found the same note on the door and choose to ignore it. A week later a deputy in a unmarked car stopped my son in from of the drive way and handed him another note. My son noticed that on the dash board of his car was a large stack of these same notes.

When all was said and done, as result of people ignoring the yellow note , they were suddenly served the lawsuits in mass qualities . By the same deputy in the same unmarked car. The lawsuits were handed to any person over the age of 16 years old who happen to present at the time the deputy showed up. By order of the Honorable Judge Terry G. Lange Justice of the Peace for Precinct 1, Ector Country, Texas. My son ( age 32) saw a stack of these lawsuits on the passenger set of the officers car.

The common connection between this sudden mass lawsuits hitting west Odessa is one Michael J. Scott P.C. Carrollton, Texas 75011-5220. Michael J. Scott is a lawyer/collection agencies.

It is bad enough that our economy in West Texas is still in a slump. Or that my husband had to take a job at less pay, to simply allow us to meet our basic needs. Or that it has taken my son, a collage student majoring in business management to get a job at Wal-Mart part time. But to be hit by a bottom feeder, like Michael J. Scott took us by surprise.

But unlike my son-in-law who believed that the lawsuit and the amount that was being asked was proper an above board, and made arrangements to pay that said amount in the law suit. I noticed that the lawsuit had one basically flaw, my husband never had a Citibank credit card as Michael J. Scott P.C proclaimed.

And after a several talks with some leading consumer attorneys across Texas, I began to come to a clear understanding of my legal right as a consumer, as well as the reality of these kind of lawsuits that have hit major cities, including New York in the last few years.

Unethical lawyer/collection agencies, using genetic legal forums in which they only have to make minor changes on. Unethical lawyer/collection agencies that pad alleged credit card bill to boost that amount said to be owed by the defendant as well as adding attorney fees they are not entitled to under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act . Or looking up every person with the same name online, blanketing the country suing every person with the same name for the same alleged credit card bill . Add this reality to people who are feeling guilt over not being able to pay legitimate credit card bills , with the fear of the legal system, with the fact that most people do not now that they have a legal right to ask the unethical lawyer/collection agencies to verify the charges with in the lawsuit, or to prove they have the legal right to sue for the amount that is said to be owed. And we have consumers that are freely giving their money away to these thieves

The saddest part of the whole situation is that these Unethical lawyer/collection agencies are using our own civil court systems against us, in order to stealing from our very limited income.
