Frederick J. Hanna & Associates Deficiency Balance after SOL has expired Marietta Georgia
This collection attorney has filed a suit against me for a repossessed car's deficiency balance. The repossession occured in Oct, 2002, it has been far beyond the SOL for a deficiency balance. The repossession happened while I was living in Florda, and now I am being sued in Georgia. Anywho
1. Never ever recieved any letters, calls, emails, etc...
2. A deputy shows up at my door one night with the lawsuit
3. Filed my answer (SOL OCGA 11-2-725 & Right to Redeem OCGA 10-1-36)
4. after 4 months of nothing I recieve a "Motion for Summary Judgement" which goes on to say in section II that "Plaintiff has pierced defendants pleadings, and is entitled to summary judgement". In the whole 15 pages there is never one mention of the SOL defense I claimed. Only evidence to prove they sent the letter on October 15, 2002.
The paperwork I recieved doesn't say if it was filed with the clerk or just sent to scare me. So I have to track the Clerk of Court here down and find out the status of my case.
5. What do I do now?

SOL is 6 years in GA for written contracts, such as car notes and credit cards. You should be able to confirm this by doing a Google search for Hill v. American Express, 289 Ga. App. 576; 657 S.E.2d 547; 2008.
The Georgia Supreme Court says Hanna is a "law firm," so you have to submit a bar complaint vs. them (and not a consumer complaint with the state OCA or federal FCC -- but fine if you do that too anyway). You may submit a bar complaint vs. Fred Hanna (the owner of the "firm") and any atty. that may have contacted you that also violated bar rules for atty.s:
(Call and ask for a bar complaint, and if they have them online):
