    Hello Cook:

    Send it to ALL of 'em. What? It's going to cost an extra $.39 plus copy charges. Big deal.

    OK if this is indeed a "filed" summons there is really no need to ask for debt validation at this point

    What you need to do is respond to the summons per the instructions on the summons within 30 days. If you fail to do that a default judgement will be entered against you and you will not be able to fight it any longer. The reason why there is no longer a need for debt validation is because that will be taken care of with your answer. There is a specific way to respond so research it thoroughly. During the discovery phase you will be able to ask for any and all documents to prove its validity. If it's truly a summons it will be time and date stamped by the county it was filed in.

    Good advice but this was posted in April 2007 and the OP has not been back.
