Sometimes “debt buyers” file lawsuits against a consumer. These are companies who claim to have purchased a debt from the original creditor or even from other debt buyers. Whatever entity that files the lawsuit against you must comply with strict rules and procedures in court in proving that you actually owe the debt, to them. They must prove their case by a preponderance (majority) of evidence and comply with rules regarding civil procedure and evidence in Texas.
It is not enough to simply claim that you owe a debt. The debt collector, original creditor or debt buyer must actually prove this, based upon the strict standards imposed in Texas civil court.
