Re: National Arbitration Forum - Lack of Notice

More | Report Post

They'll have to try and enforce it in state court with a judgment. That means they have
to hire a local attorney to get something on file, whether it's a motion to confirm
arbitration award or a separate action depending on the state. At that time, you can
respond with a vigorous defense. I suggest hiring an attorney to stuff this back down
the craphole it came out of.

They may even have the wrong person named. But that's not going to stop them, the facts
never do.

They may try and enforce it in Missouri but that may cause you to have to file an
appearance for purposes of contesting the jurisdictional issue.

I may be wrong about this but I think that the wind is starting to change here. Senator
Feingold is sponsoring a bill to do away with mandatory arbitration of consumer disputes
largely because of the efforts of NAF and their thug lapdog 'attorneys' wolpoff and
abramson or mccann bracken. There are a lot of district court judges who are mighty
angry at these bastids.

didja know that the NAF markets their services to the credit card industry by saying
that they decide in the creditor's favor better than 99 per cent of the time?

Best of luck to you.
