Machol & Johannes, LLC Debt Collection Complaint

Machol & Johannes, LLC Debt collection department,

Taking/threatening an illegal action Sued w/o proper notification of suit Colorado

I believe Machol & Johannes, representing - - -, knowingly pursued a judgement against me that was past the statue of limitations in Colorado. In addition, the proof of service filed with the court was fraudulent and may have been fabricated. They have not provided me proof of service as I have requested - in writing. There is no judgment or other indication of collection efforts on my credit report as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. They refuse to supply me with debt verification, hence I can only conclude that the lawsuit was filed and judgement was obtained illegally. The firm is claiming that I waived the statute of limitations by failing to file an answer prior to judgement. However, due to - their failure to serve me & my ignorance of civil procedure at the time, I did not have the opportunity exercise my right to defend myself.
