(Please don't tell me I need to hire a lawyer). This is for a silly debtors examination that is 4 counties and 100 miles away and I have already submitted written answers. I can't imagine they will "chase" me down over this in another county? What typically happens in a case like this?

The next possible steps are a show cause and then a body attached (arrest warrant). Depends on how aggressive the creditor wants to get.
They know I have no assets, so they are doing it as a form of harassment ( I have already submitted written answers). It also requires me to travel 100+ miles. If I do have to go, what techniques can I use to make it as expensive as possible for them so they finally understand their ROI is zero? I... Read more »

You need to hire an attorney to look at your financial condition and file a Notice Of Exempt Property.
Someone fraudulently cashed a check I sent to pay my trash bill. The trash company never received it, so they still say I owe the bill. Who is responsible for getting the money - the bank, or the trash company?
answered on Jan 13, 2023
Most likely you.
If someone intercepted a check you wrote to pay a bill and wrongly cashed it, you can legally pursue that person and possibly your own bank as well as the bank that cashed the check.
But you do still owe your trash company and should pay it. This time I recommend... Read more »
How far can I be excepted to travel for this and how often can they subpoena me for this? I have no assets so it seems as harassment once they are aware of that. I was sued 4 counties (>100 miles) away in Tennessee in Chancery court.

Without more details it is hard to answer. Look up motions for Protective Orders in Tennessee or you may need to hire a lawyer to file one for you. I am not sure whether you are entitled to relief- but that would be one avenue to approach.
It was different brand, make and model as seller described
answered on Jan 25, 2023
You should notify the police or sheriff about this because it can be a crime to alter serial numbers when it was done to misrepresent the identity of the item. You can also probably sue the seller for fraud. But you should talk to a lawyer about this first. What you can and should do will be... Read more »
They are not my mortgage company, and i am at the point of screaming into the phone that i do not want to talk to them.

If the calls are automated and you have no business relationship with the mortgage company, you might be entitled to statutory damages under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. If you answer the calls and you hear an automated voice prior to speaking to a live representative, you should reach... Read more »

It sounds like you have told them not to call you- I suggest you block the number.
Is there a law in TN covering me to get the dealership to fix the issues or take it back? I am not sure how to prove they knew it had issues but I feel they did if they won’t sell me a warranty after I purchased it.
What is this new law in Davison co/Nashville this year about withdrawing name / disclosing name in property records or online searches?
2-fold issue. I sold a car to Carvana 5/16/21 — they failed to register it to the new owner. It's still in my name, has been impounded somewhere in California and also failed to do a back-out with Bridgecrest on the loan. I've received letters from the CA DMV, San Bernadino Police Dept....

Time to retain an attorney. It seems you've hit the wall with Carvana.

A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for five weeks. It would be helpful for the lawyer to have experience working with personal information with government agencies. Maybe reaching out to identity theft, social security, privacy & security, or other attorneys... Read more »
The person over my account refuses to send my car title. My car was paid off on 8/5/22. The lady gave me a fake tracking number and a fake certified mail receipt. I called the Department of Revenue and told me to seek legal counsel and wouldn’t tell me why.
answered on Oct 3, 2022
Car Dealer probably never owned the car. You will need an attorney to complain to the proper agency and make a claim. A suit may be needed also.
Asking how it's legal for companies to charge triple digit interest rates when TN caps interest rates at 24%?

There is not limit during the life of the Judgment. You might move to quash for abusive filings, but it will probably be denied.
My husband and I own a boat that we decided to sell. We put it on a lot for a dealership to sell for us. The deal was that the boat would not leave the lot until paid for. We also agree that the dealerships would take $500 for selling it. We got a call from the dealership about 12 days ago saying... Read more »

Probably a Civil Warrant in General Sessions Court for Breach of Contract or Conversion. Hire a TN attorney.
answered on Aug 11, 2022
You should probably consult a lawyer to review the contract. If any part of the agreement seems questionable you should make sure of what you are being asked to sign before you sign. There might be more problems than you notice.
Also look at the State of Tennessee website:... Read more »

Purchased a used 5th wheel camper from a dealer. Got it home and slide-out malfunctioned. Went out crooked, woud not go back in straight. Paid someone to come get it in straight. He found a bent slide rail and gears with evidence of previous damage.

Depends on whether you purchased "as is" or with or without a warranty. And maybe whether they knew about the problem and intentionally covered it up.
