The Motion to Compel Cycle for People being Sued for Debt

Because people being sued for debt typically don't have much money, and especially when they're proceeding pro se (representing themselves), debt collectors usually will not cooperate with them in the discovery process. You'll send interrogatories and requests for documents, and whatever your questions and requests may be, you'll get nothing but objections back. This is called "stonewalling," and it's in every debt collector's playbook.
But you need the information, so how do you get it? Don't send more interrogatories or requests - they'll just be stonewalled, too. Instead, you must enter what I call the motion to compel cycle. That is, you must negotiate informally (usually by phone, first) and then write what's called a "good faith letter" which outlines the positions and states why you have a right to your discovery (answers to the interrogatories and requests). And then you have to file a motion to compel. It's frustrating, annoying and difficult, but the effort isn't wasted. It may win the case for you outright by making them drop it, and it will definitely help focus your preparation for trial.
