I don't know where this would come up on an application.. maybe for EEOC reporting.  But, if you not a "protected class" or "minority", it is frauldulent to say that you are.  Most applications have a clause that states that if any misinformation is on the application, even after hire, this is ground for termination.\n\nGood luck in your job search and love your picture!\nCongrats on reaching level 4!!!

The dismissal in fact leaves open the possibility of re-filing the lawsuit or otherwise attempting to collect the claimed debt.\n\n"Without prjeudice" means that the case was not adjudicated and no resoltuion has been made.\n\nHowever, at this point you have grounds for a counter-action if they continue to pursue this claim, or make harmful statements to credit reporting agencies.\n\nYou can ask an attorney to help with a formal letter to the company advising them that you will take such action.  You should include copies of any derogatory material on any credit reports, and demand that these be corrected.  Separately, you should also notify the credit reporting agencies that the report is incorrect and demand a change.\n\nIn this manner you protect your intersts - and, if the company is fool enough to try again, you are positioned to sue them in return and make a wad.

You are obviously very well spoken and this will stand to you if you do choose to go furthur with this...just keep your cool!!!!\n..It is an aweful thing when those supposedly enforcing the law become unlawful themselves!\nI believe you should speak up...if you feel you would be safe to do so. If there is a politicians office an external law office to the one you delt with then go for it. It is people like you that create change!\nThe very fact that you posted this information here is the first step in challenging a corrupt authority.\nbe careful...good luck!

Have you disputed the account with them in writing, by certified letter?  They have to legally provide with proof of the charges within 30 days & tell them if they do not comply with the Federal Equal Opportunity Act & the Consumer Protection Act then you will file a complaints against them with the (name of your) Attorney General's Office & The Federal Trade Commission.  If they no reply to you within 30 days, you need to send them another letter stating as they did not comply with federal law providing you the requested information pertaining to charges they claim you owe, they cannot further collect as they did not provide with proof.  I would CC this to the Attorney geenral in case they try to come back later again.

You have to know and demand your rights, as does your attorney (most don't).\n\nHave him file a motion to dismiss based on the speedy trial rule...\n\nThat usually works.

First of all you need to consult with an attorney that handles constitutional law, to ascertain as to whether or not your rights were violated. When you consult with the attorney, make sure that you have the following information: initial charges that caused the arrest, disposition of those charges, proof of innocense of those charges and above all be truthful with the attorney. Lying or withholding information from an attorney will not help your case, in fact it may cause greater problems down the line. Because if this goes to trial based on the information filed by your attorney and you are called to testify, you risk being charged with perjury and having your case dismissed.  \n\nIf the Attorney takes your case he will file pleadings under 42 USC Section 1983. That would be Title 42 of the United States Code Section 1983.\n\nThe following is what this statute entails:\n\nSection 1983. Civil action for deprivation of rights \n\n"Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer's judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable.  For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia."

Yes, you should get a lawyer. Even in Texas, these are serious violations of your civil rights. You will need to make claims against the officer and maybe the DA or AG, depending on whose grand jury it was. The bond you should get back more or less automatically.

They are a collection agency. One of the worst.\n\nYou may have had an account that was charged off and sold.\nIf you have not had an account go bad and sold, then it isn't yours. Which is almost as hard to remove as an account that is yours.\n\nIf you discover that it is your account, you need to find out what the statute of limitations (SOL) are in your state. If you are out of SOL on the account you can really persue this hard. If you are still well within SOL, tread lightly. \n\nAlthough they have already violated your rights by placing that account on your reports without first notifying you of the debt, (which they are known to do) they can try to sue. That's why "anything" you do about this, keep a very detailed papertrail. If they should sue, you will have plenty of counterclaims against them.\n\nSend LVNV a debt validation letter. Send it certified mail return receipt. When you get the green card back (and you "know" it is not your account) send the credit bureaus a letter that it is not your account and it has been placed on your reports in error and to please delete this damaging account.\n\nIf you find it actually is your account, send the credit bureaus a dispute. Pick a couple errors out that is on that tradeline (theres probably quite a few) and base your dispute on those. \n\nFor example: they are listing the tradeline as open with a past due balance (violations)\n\nTell the credit bureaus in your letter that LVNV is violating your rights by listing an inaccurate account. They are claiming that it is an open account with a past due balance. Please correct this or delete this account.\n\nMore than likely LVNV will verify before validating with you (another violation) and you will have to go through all of it again.\n\nIf you are out of SOL, after going through this process several times, you should file complaints with the FTC, BBB and your states attorney general.  \n\nIf you discover that it is your account and if you want to pay it, be sure to send a debt validation letter (CMRRR) After they have "properly" validated the debt, send a pay for delete letter. \n\nInclude in that letter that they will delete the account after receiving payment, that they will not continue to collect the debt, that they will not sell the debt or the remainder of the debt - if they agree to being paid only a percentage of the debt (which you should also request)\n\nI would recommend clicking the first link and reading on how bad this company really is.\n\nI would also recommend checking out the second site that I have linked and do some reading. \n\nLearn and use your rights.\n\n\nedited to add: When disputing with the credit bureaus, do not use the free FACT-Act reports. Using those gives the credit bureaus an extra 15 days to complete their investigation. Which could make the difference in the account remaining instead of being deleted. Order your paid reports from each of the bureaus. \n\nDo not order a tri-merge report either, those are often inaccurate.

For a question like this, you would really need to consult an attorney. I do not believe there are any definitive guidelines or laws for this. I know that in many situations people who were snatched and deprogrammed won judgements because their civil rights had been violated.

Ah, first of all, you should contact the ACLU. Collect all the information that you can! Turn it over to the ACLU. You should also contact your local government representatives about what is going on. The more people you get involved, the better your chances. If I knew more, I could tell you more.... However, if you have evidence of such discrimination, by all means use it.

You are not the first person that has happened too...no, you didn't get a fair trial.  You can talk to the "head" judge...the chief justice..or whatever they call him where you are.  It's a Constitutional right..you are guaranteed a fair trial, and if the judge didn't hear half of the testimony....well, that's not fair then, is it...whether you won or lost.  You could call the (shudder) ACLU....I can't believe I just recommended that....

Despite the best efforts of the civil rights administration you are still going to run into idiots like Dan! and uck_me_say. There is little you can do without proof. I know what you mean as I was once a computer analyst. I wrote an entire ATM system for a bank back in the 80's and was solely responsible for the successful implementation of the system. With these credentials and more = including published articles on my field in leading industry magazines I didn't get hired for this one bank. From the guys energy I knew he was not about to hire any person of color. \n\nI just hung in there and I got hired at some place else. Later that same moron regretted he didn't hire me when the bank that did hire acquired his bank and I became his boss. \n\nLook at it this way. God is going to take care of you and God is bigger than bigotry. Look for your opportunities as coming from God. The door is open in front of you if you just keep knocking. It is tough for people of all colors right now.\n\nPay no attention to the venom in the other answers. Hatred is its own condemnation.

Gather all your notes, all his comments, etc., and take them to a civil rights attorney.\n\nWhat is slandering to you, may be the execution of his freedom of speech, so you need a professional to help you decipher that one

Find a legal advisor. I think you should solve the metter legally. It is the best way, in my opinion, to protect your rights.
