DEFENDANT'S OBJECTION TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND INCORPORATED MEMORANDUM OF LAW.
Comes
now the Defendant, Billie Bauer, Pro Se and hereby objects to the
Plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order and
incorporated
memorandum of law for the following reasons.
2. Plaintiffs claim to have served this instant motion for
temporary
restraining order by inclusion with their original
motion and complaint. The
envelope containing their original
motion and complaint as received by the
Defendant contained
exactly seven (7) sheets as shown to have been filed on
Pacer
as of June 19th
2007. This
instant motion is four (4) pages long by itself
and did not
show up on Pacer until June 26th
2007. If the original service had
actually
contained
this instant motion as claimed by the Plaintiffs the original
service
envelope would have contained eleven (11) pages not
seven (7). Additionally,
Plaintiffs did not serve the
papers as claimed but rather had the papers
mailed to the
Defendant by a company using the name CCH CONSULTING,
a
company not registered with the Texas Secretary of State according
to a
certified statement of no registration issued to the
Defendant by the office of
the Secretary of State in and for
the State of Texas. Since the fictitious name
CCH CONSULTING
is not registered to do business in the State of Texas
it
could not have legally served the Defendant. Furthermore, it
therefore has
no legal capacity or standing to take any part
in this instant case nor can the
present Plaintiffs legally
represent the interests of a Corporation.
Corporations are
not natural persons and are unable to speak for themselves
and
therefore must be represented by competent legal counsel authorized
to
practice law before this Honorable Court. Therefore
this Defendant, acting
pro se wishes to state that he
believes that the Plaintiffs may possibly be
practicing law
without license or permission of the Court to do so. They may
also
be committing other offenses of which the Defendant is unaware.
3. Even if the Plaintiffs had included
this instant motion in their original
complaint and summons
as falsely claimed they have still violated several
Rules of
Procedure including but not limited to violation of Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure 11(a) which states that each paper shall
state the signer's
address and phone number, if any.
Each
and every document submitted to this Honorable Court and to the
Defendant has violated this Rule. Therefore this Defendant
respectfully
suggests that the Court may wish to sanction
the Plaintiffs in such a manner
as the Court deems
reasonable and proper. Defendant also notices this
Honorable
Court that Federal Rules of Procedure 65(a)(1) precludes this
Court from issuance of preliminary injunction without notice
to the adverse
party. Defendant is the adverse party and has
not been notified by the
Plaintiffs in any way, shape or
form or by any method whatever.
6. Defendant objects to
Plaintiffs FACTS STATEMENTS number four (4)
because
Plaintiff acting Pro Se attempts to protect the business interests
of a
company but fails to explain in any document submitted
to date exactly what
it's business does or what it's
products consist of.
In order
that this Honorable Court might be more fully informed this
Defendant wishes this Court to be advised that the business
to which the
Plaintiffs allude provides what is commonly
known as“seasoned tradelines”
to consumers
wishing to improve their poor credit scores in order to obtain
financing their current poor scores would not otherwise
allow them to enjoy.
As this Honorable Court is most likely
well aware, those who purchase or
have purchased this so
called product, have their credit scores artificially
elevated
by the advertised 100 or more points and then apply to a lender who
relies on the accuracy of the received credit reports to
make the decision to
extend credit based on them. That would
be providing false and/or
misleading information to a lender
which is a federal felony offense. Anyone
who might be
providing false or misleading information to a lender would
likely
become a convicted felon, be forced to do time in a federal penal
institution and have their lives ruined all because they
were gullible enough
to believe the Plaintiff's allegations
that their products are in fact expressly
permitted by law
and that the Federal Trade Commission has stated that
Plaintiff's business
practices are legal which is false and misleading both to
consumers and to this Honorable Court. What the Plaintiff
refers to is the
fact that the Federal Trade Commission has
probably stated that it is not
illegal for someone to add
another person to their credit card accounts as
authorized
users but obviously the Federal Trade Commission did not
envision
that the authorized user provision would be utilized in such a
fashion that people with extremely high credit scores might
be paid large
amounts of money to add numerous persons with
poor credit scores unknown
and unrelated to them to their credit
cards.
Credit bureaus are now revising their software to
take care of this problem.
All credit bureaus and FICO having
to upgrade their software will
undoubtedly be a great
expense and the final result may well be that even
the
ability of parents to help their children will be severely affected
and all
because of unscrupulous persons attempting to make a
fast buck off of
gullible people.
7.
Defendant also believes that Plaintiffs have furthermore violated
Federal
Rules of Procedure 11(b)(2) which states that the
claims, defenses, and
other legal contentions
therein are warranted by existing law.
Defendant
maintains that the plaintiffs have failed to meet the
requirements of Rule 11(b)(2). Defendant also believes and
maintains
that the Plaintiffs have furthermore
violated Federal Rules of Procedure
11(b)(3) which
requires that allegations and other factual contentions
have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified are
likely to have
evidentiary support after a reasonable
opportunity for further
investigation or discovery.
8. Defendant contends that his denials are in compliance
with Federal Rules
of Procedure Rule 11(b)(4) because they
are warranted on the evidence
presented in these
arguments.
9. Plaintiffs only purpose in bringing this
instant action is to silence the
truthful statements of the
Defendant and deny him his Constitutional
right to free
speech under the First Amendment of the Constitution of
the United States of America. When citizens become aware that
an
unlawful act is being purpetrated upon an
unsuspecting public
they have a civic duty to
speak out in order to protect the public. This
Defendant did
not speak out until he had found such reputable publications
as
The Wall Street Journal, Reuters and other such news sources also
speaking about this practice and the harmful effects it has
had upon the
American public and the nation's economy. The
Defendant has spoken the
truth, did not act irresponsibly
and did not exceed the bounds of
Constitutionally guaranteed
free speech. Truth is an absolute defense against
a charge
of libel and defamation.
8. Plaintiffs have a blog at
http://angryconsumerdiary.com
on which they
regularly engage in the exact same practices
against others including
but definitely not limited to the
Defendant of which they complain here.
Thus they are before
this Honorable Court with unclean hands.
9. For all of the
above reasons the Defendant hereby respectfully motions this
Honorable Court to deny Plaintiffs demands for temporary
restraining
order or relief
of any kind.
