I was served with papers from New York (I am in Mississippi) I had 30 days to file a response in the New York County Civil Court. I spent days researching other cases against MBF and incorporated that into my response and wrote my response and sent it in May to the Courts and MBF's attorney. I am awaiting a court date and will fly to New York to defend myself against these low lifes to the best of my ability. I tried to get an attorney through the New York Bar Association but they said because of the amount of money involved they would not take the case even when I told them I would spend more to fight them than it would cost to pay them. Good luck with your fight if they do sue; you just contact the clerk where the papers are served out of and ask for their advice. They were very helpful to me.

Hey Gerri, I'm in the same boat, except I think i'm about 2 months behind you. MBF Leasing is planning to sue me in couple weeks. Can you tell me if you already went, and how it went? If you havent gone yet, can you tell me what is your plan? Are you planning to fight back with a lawyer or not? Any information will be helpful. I have 0 experience with lawsuits, kinda scared, but I'd rather spend 1000's of dollars fighting, than paying them a dime. Thanks!

I was summoned to go to court. The first step was to answer the complaint with the clerk of the court. It was easy. I had typed up an answer ahead of time. This answer was stapled to a form that the clerk helps you fill out. Make sure you have extra copies of your answer with you. Now I have a court date in July which should be the actual hearing before a judge. Make sure that you counter sue and make it big. These people are criminals. Go after them.
