    Hello again, s:

    You're dancing around some truth that you don't want to reveal. I'll bet it WOULD effect ALL the answers you've received so far...

    Look, we're NOT the cops... So, why don't you spill it?? Otherwise you're going to get BAD INFORMATION!!

    I have some debts that I have been fighting via DV letters.

    I want to protect my equipment I use for work in case they come down on me with summons in the future.

    I always wanted to start an INC but never did, I waited to long.

    I just can't afford my items be taken away if a court ruling goes in their favor.

    NO I Haven't been summoned or anything.

    Hello again, s:

    You can START and run any business your heart desires. What you CAN'T do, is transfer assets in order to hide them. It's FRAUD!

    Ahh OK

    Thinking about it now, the assets are nothing special, rather keep all business purchases new direct from the INC instead of transferring in personal items.

    Much less hassle.

    Hello again, s:

    If you have NOTHING to protect, then starting a corporation is a waste of time and money. Without doing ANYTHING, you are a sole proprietorship. That means YOU are a business. Take your equipment and go to work.

    And the reason for INC was not to avoid items getting taken

    The #1 reason and #2 and #3 were mainly to avoid personal injury litigation in case someone gets hurts , had a close call once and ever since then I knew I had to INC to separate myself from personal liability just in case.

    Then that person told me about personal property transferring into his INC and how he protected his items

    And that's how this whole thing started in terms of finding out more information and if his latter statement was true.

    Thanks excon

    Hello again, s:

    You're being dunned by bill collectors. You, apparently, have NO money. Your only assets appear to be your equipment. If somebody fell down and sued you, they'd get NOTHING.

    Therefore, you have NOTHING to protect, and forming a corporate identity at this time is a waste of time and money.

    PS> If you have extra money, BUY insurance. That'll protect you better anyway.

    Silverstein, I'm confused. Are you Rentedog?

    And I'm also confused about the meaning of the question. Are you asking what would happen if the original poster ("OP")=Rentedog were to deny the truth of the plaintiff's evidence? It's normally a "his word against yours" matter, the judge believes the most believable side, and that's the end of it. It would only be when the defendant's testimony is obviously, and beyond a reasonable doubt, a lie (knowing falsehood) that the defendant could be charged with perjury. Very rare.

    you mean they dont have to show signed contracts anymore?

    If you apply for a credit card online, then there is no signed contract. Instead, the card issuer captures your IP address and some personal info that you have to supply to verify that you are you.

    First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. Are you asking for the OP or for yourself? If for yourself, let me know and I will move it to your thread.

    As noted, you can't be arrested. A judge doesn't produce evidence, they just rule on its validity. If the plaintiff produces evidence that the judge accepts as proof of the debt, the defendant loses.
