Credit card Taking/threatening an illegal action threatened to sue on too old debt

JPMorgan Chase Debt collection department,

Credit card Taking/threatening an illegal action Threatened to sue on too old debt California

The issue is a - judgment pertaining to Case Number - issued sometime in -. Plaintiff being - - - - represented by - - -. I am in the process of securing mortgage financing related to the purchase of a condominium situated in - -, -. During the course of the mortgage due diligence process, the mortgage broker informed me that the above-referenced judgment was indicated on my credit report. My research on this matter led me to the conclusion that the debt giving rise to the judgment was originally associated with a credit card balance that I had due and owing to Washington Mutual Bank ( WaMu ). Apparently, after WaMu 's assets and deposits were acquired by JPMorgan Chase ; JPMorgan Chase sold my wife 's account to Asset Acceptance.


Hence, when - - - - initiated the lawsuit against me to collect the old WaMu credit card debt on Asset Acceptance 's behalf ; the statute of limitations had run its course, by several years, in the states of -, the state in which I resided when the initial credit card was issued, -, the state in which I resided at the time that the litigation was filed, and in -, the state in which WaMu was situated at the time that the credit card was issued. I am also more than well aware of the fact that in -, the Federal Trade Commission filed a complaint against - - for deceptive practices. One of the main allegations of the Federal Trade Commission was that - - coerces consumers to pay their old debt without telling them that the statute of limitations had elapsed on the debt, and the consumers could not be sued to collect it. Other allegations include the misrepresentation of the details of debts, failing to verify authenticity of debts, giving credit reporting agencies negative information without notifying consumers, not conducting investigations after receiving notifications of disputes, and calling and giving information about debts to uninvolved third parties. - filing of the lawsuit against me also runs contrary to his present day firm 's commitment to compliance with regard to adherence to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act as your firm is actively involved in local, state and national legislation involving legal collections and creditor rights. I am respectfully requesting that - - - - satisfy/vacate the judgment in - - on an immediate basis. Their failure to do so will leave me with no other alternative than to : 1. Engage the services of legal counsel in - who will petition the Court to vacate the judgment on the basis that the lawsuit was not filed in timely manner, e.g., not within the statute of limitations. 2. File suit against you personally for malicious prosecution. 3. File a complaint against Asset Acceptance, yourself and your firm with the Federal Trade Commission regarding deceptive practices as defined and prohibited under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. The deception referenced above includes, but is not limited to, your and - - failure to notify me, the consumer, of my right to dispute the debt, either in part or in full, with the debt collector thereby effectively foreclosing my right to demand verification of the debt from the debt collector.
