1-5. Admilled.
6-] O. Denied as stated. The avennents of these paragraphs arc conclusions of law to which
no response is required. To the extent a response may be deemed rcquired, these avennents are
denied. To the contrary, Defendants have raised numerous defenses that are required to be plead
according to Pa. R.C.P. 1030 or these defenses arc deemed abandoned or waived. Plaintiff would
certainly suffer no prejudice if these avennents are allowed to remain in the Complaint until basic
discovery has been conducted. Defense counsel has offered to do that infonnally and has requested
that Plaintiff's counsel supply a copy of their entire file in this collection proceeding, as well as their
predecessor in interest. See leller allached as Exhibit "A". By way of further answer, the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act contains very specific and technical steps which must be followed when a
party such as a Plaintiff and its predecessor is allempting to collect the debt. Defendant's counsel
can not advise the Defendant if that act has been violated until he reviews the entire contents of the
Plaintiff's file and the Plaintiffs predccessor's file, including copies of all correspondence used in
an attempt to collect a debt, as well as notes of any telephone conversations which have been made
with the Defendant.
WHEREFORE, Defendant requests that Plaintiffs preliminary objection to Defendant's
Answer, New Matter and Counterclaim be dismissed.
