Flipping the Power Dynamic in Debt Cases

Overview

  • Legal method to flip power dynamic using three documents:
    • Affidavit of Truth
    • Conditional Acceptance
    • Notice of Tender
  • Forces opponent to respond or lose standing.
  • Focus on contracts, facts, and lawful offers over emotion.

Key Documents

1. Affidavit of Truth

  • Sworn statement of facts related to the debt case.
  • Lays out facts about the contract, disclosures, and signatures.
  • If unrebutted, stands as truth in commerce.
  • Common claims include no contract, no lawful loan, or debt paid by a third party.

2. Conditional Acceptance

  • Requests specific proof:
    • Original contract
    • Proof of lawful consideration
    • Chain of title
    • Accounting records
  • Keeps you in honor under UCC 1-308 and UCC 3-501.

3. Notice of Tender

  • Offering lawful payment or discharge.
  • Could include promissory note or remittance coupon.
  • If rejected, can lead to discharge of obligation.

Strategy

  • Use the documents to shift the burden of proof.
  • If unanswered or rebutted improperly, opponent loses legal standing.
  • Send documents via certified mail with return receipt.

Packaging and Sending

  • Combine all documents in one notarized mailing.
  • Title it: "Commercial Affidavit of Truth and Tender Offer with Conditional Acceptance."
  • Send to all relevant parties (customer service, legal department, etc.).
  • If no response or improper response, send a notice of fault and dishonor.

    • UCC 3-501: Presentments.
    • UCC 3-603: Tender of payment.
