Description

Person called and left message stating that they attempted to serve paperwork to the address on file and that the paperwork waa returned. In order to prevent a failure to appear, call Janet wilson at the 877 number and the staff would be able to give case information. The issue is: 1. Our county does not have a county processors office. Any papers to ve served are handled by contables. 2. The case number they gave does not match the format of the case numbers in our county. The case number given doesn't match any case number active ir inactive. 3. There is no current active case with my name listed as party to the case. The case does not exist. The court did a search to verify and found information to be false. 4. This was intended for my wife but they called my number. I was also contacted with the same message the previous day with a similar case number, but given a different number to call back. Number was 855-362-0003. This was also filed under a separate complaint. 5. Federal law prohibits collection agents or agencies from threatening arrest specifically or implied in order to collect a debt. This was implied by the threat of failure to contact would result in a failure to appear. Also the case number ended in CR, where in many jurisdictions CR in a case number refers to a criminal case. Our county doesn't use CR.
