finally filing on these incompetent fools tomorrow after 385 days of trying to get three entries accurately reported. Thought I was all prepared, now I am freaking.. I live in california, filing in small claims. Problem 1) agent of service..this is what is listed: LP/LLC EQUIFAX INFORMATION SERVICES LLC Number: 200116310025 Date Filed: 6/6/2001 Status: active Jurisdiction: GEORGIA Principal Address 1550 PEACHTREE ST NW ATLANTA, GA 30309 Agent for Service of Process CORPORATION SERVICE COMPANY WHICH WILL DO BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA AS CSC-LAWYERS INCORPORATING SERVICE what does this mean?? I am a clueless novice, just frusterated and fed up. 2)venue, I only have a small one sentence space to explain or i may c hoose letter..would C)a contract or obligation breached in this district be correct? sorry so long! I am usually a confident, capable human being but thought of court intimidates me and I confess right now "I want my mommy !" and since tis only due to you brave folks and the education and support you provide on this board that I am taking this step, you are now elected/drafted mommies!(or daddies
OK. First - calm down. Next, from the Cal. secretary of state site: Agent for Service of Process THE PRENTICE-HA LL CORPORATION SYSTEM, INC. 2730 GATEWAY OAKS DR., SUITE 100 SACRAMENTO, CA 95833 Next, just type your complaint out on a separate piece of paper and attach it to the small claims form as the complaint. On the small claims form where it gives you space to type your complaint, just put, "see attachment". Very simple.
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo ok deep breaths! I went back to the sec of state page. I see you got that agent by putting equifax under corp? but it says status is surrendered, you sure it is still good? secondly,my small claims advisor said i can't attach a separate sheet..I already asked.. think a generic one sentence statement would be sufficient ie.. PLAINTIFF'S CLAIM Defendant owes me the sum of: $ 2500.00 , not including court costs, because (describe claim and date): 3/01-4/02,multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. which resulted in damages to me. and thanks for your help!
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo You didn't look far enough down the page for Equifax Inc. Corporation EQUIFAX INC. Number: C0075536 Date Filed: 1/5/1914 Status: active Jurisdiction: GEORGIA Mailing Address PO BOX 4081 H46 ATLANTA, GA 30309 Agent for Service of Process THE PRENTICE-HA LL CORPORATION SYSTEM, INC. 2730 GATEWAY OAKS DR., SUITE 100 SACRAMENTO, CA 95833 As far as what you put on the small claims form, that is fine.
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo Careful, if you don't get the right name, they will not accept service. I just lised Experian, Equifax and CrossCountry Bank's registered agents at proselitigant a couple of days ago. Double check, but I believe the following info is correct Equifax: Kent E Mast, Registered Agent 1550 Peachtree St. NW Atlanta, GA 30309 To have them served, call the Atlanta Sheriff's Deparment and ask for their Civil Division. Ask them what their fee is to provide service...ask if they take a personal check or money order...and if they need more than one copy of the summons and complaint. Be sure to get their mailing address. The correct name should be Equifax Credit Information Services, Inc. Hope this helps! L
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo Meant to add...I got this information from their filing certificate at http://www.ganet.org/cgi-bin/pub/corp/corpsearch?corpid=J114863 L
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo Whyspers, she doesn't have to have them served in Georgia. She can have them served in california. diaz - after I checked a little further, it appears that the info you had before, ie: csc is correct. Corporation CORPORATION SERVICE COMPANY WHICH WILL DO BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA AS CSC - LAWYERS INCORPORATING SERVICE Number: C1592199 Date Filed: 7/31/1987 Status: active Jurisdiction: DELAWARE Mailing Address 2711 CENTERVILLE RD STE 400 WILMINGTON, DE 19808 Agent for Service of Process UNITED STATES C ORPORATION COMP ANY 2730 GATEWAY OAKS DRIVE STE 100 SACRAMENTO, CA 95833 Are you sure that there isn't an equifax affiliate in California that you go thru?
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo ah same addie as Prentice Hall..ok i changed it. no affiliate I am aware of..am able to dispute online and always send/receive from atlanta. thanks!
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo I wondered if i c ould sue equifax corp instead of EIS didn't someone else do that? I don't want t o serve in atlanta if I do n't have too. btw I really like t he prose site!
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo Why don't you address a thread to Ender. I think he sued equifax in cal. and he should be able to advise you who to serve.
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo ok i now have two sets of completed forms one for Equifax Corp registered agent in CA one for EIS registered agent in atlanta i'll take both with me to court house tomorrow one way or another someone is being filed on *roar*
Re: Help! filing on equifax tomo I sent Ender an email for you and asked him to respond here. Good luck.
