How are they going to affect your case one way or the other?
The thing at always frustrates me when I am involved in "actual" litigation (most of what I do is quasi-litigation sort of stuff that doesn't involve a court or arbitral panel), is the petty bullshit people pull of things that shouldn't be controversial. As if it is all one big game of gotcha, and they can make up for the complete failute to produce any emails as long as they show that you refused to respond (after objecting) to the same interrogatories that you sent them.

This is personal. I am having a dispute with my credit card company over the interest they have charged. I won't pay them until they readjust the interest rate. They sent the bill to a collections agency who kept calling me and harassing me so I sent them a notice saying that couldn't call me any more. So they sued. But I believe the suit is a bluff. They are in San Diego, and they had to sue me up here, and the filing was a simple form to fill out.
I think they believe that once they filed that I would buckle.
But I am going to call their bluff, and answer the petition and once they get my response they will be forced to decide whether to get involved in litigation six hundred miles from their firm. And as they are a collection agency I don't think they even have litigators.
