    These idiots are (1 877 214 3355) calling from a Truck Driver job that wasn't exactly working out, Stevens Transport, And since the 1yr contract wasn't fulfilled they want around $8000 to stop bugging us...Alright then, if the recruiter would have been more honest & they wouldn't have tried to "extend" their 2nd part of "orientation" I would have been glad to stay a year, maybe even more...BUT, $350/ wk (minus taxes and $160/wk child support) for another 2 months was impossible...4 wks was promised by them for "part 2", they have saturated their co. w/ so many drivers that they screw the senior driver, and have a host of students at hand waiting for a truck that isn't really their because their fleet is now short, not enough trucks - way too many drivers.

    These people are harrassing my mother & saying she guaranteed a loan for me when she didn't they are collecting on behalf of stevens transport, and want $$$ we don't have in order to stop. What now? Can't pay child support and feed my family on the payrate of their 2nd "orientation" and 4wks was initially promised from the recruiter, now its 7 wks long becasuse of so many students and not enough trucks, I am a proficient driver and just want to eat like everyone else, they shouldn't try to cockblock like that.  I might just have to blow the lid right off their whole operation, and send my logbooks to the DOT so they can in fact see how students are driving 10-12 hrs straight, no PTI's, etc. One trainer even had me drive from Laredo, TX to Georgia with a trailer tire completely flat! "Don't worry bout it so much, U just need to hammerdown."

    Debt collectors cannot  arrest you, put you in jail etc. The most they can do is file a complaint against you in civil, not criminal court. You can then work out a payment plan or if judgment is in their favor they will garnish your wages.  
    If they are that shady they won't give you their name then it is a scam.

    Don't let them make you feel bad by calling you names like deadbeat.


    To the person who they said they would take their nursing license: they are lying to you. If they filed a complaint like that with your state nursing board it would not even be acknowledged.

    I called a rather rude sounding call from John Montgomery himself and portrayed himself as a lawyer.  I am in law school so did some research.  John Montgomery is not a lawyer, but is divorced and is being sued by his previous business partners.

    What silver spoon have YOU been eating from?  People want to pay their bills.  They don't take out loans and buy things on credit with the expectation of not paying for them.  You obviously come from wealth because it sounds like you have never struggled a day in your life to pay your bills-- you've never known what it is like to live pay-check to pay-check, or to be told that your job is being restructured and you're force to accept a pay cut vs. standing in the unemployment line.  Normal people face these struggles but their bills don't decrease when their salary decreases.  Instead, people like you make it more difficult to stay honest, or to answer the phone.  We don't pick up the phone because our financial distress has put us into unsurmountable situations.  And people like you think its okay to double the amount we have to repay when we can't pay the original payback amount.  Normal people like us have financial struggles that we can't always forsee when we signed the dotted line 5 years ago.  Your pompous attitude shows the rest of us (the people that you are contracted to serve through good customer service) that you have no realist view of true Americans.  Don't kid yourself  You are not our saviour.

    John Montgomery and John Essel, are one in the same. He is not a lawyer as he claims. The company he works for is Lockhart, Morris and Montgomery. Their website is LMMCOLLECTIONS.COM. Though, I've heard him use other names and research on the Web reveals others have had him misrepresent the company name (such as in this thread). If you've ever conversed with him, you will also notice his accent changes. From slight to thick Texas accent.

    He will make all kinds of threats. Threats that you should be aware, he can not, will not follow through on.

    Let me put it out there, right now. I DO owe a debt. However, I had a major medical emergency (13 hours of open heart surgery), late last year, that has left me disabled since. I can't work. So the only money I get, is disability. I was trying to keep up with my bills, but trucking school debt, was not high on my list. Putting food on the table, utilities, car payments... you know... essentials, came first.

    So earlier this year, I start getting these calls and hangups on my voicemail in the morning, before I wake up. My ringer is off when I sleep and if you can't leave a message, then its obviously not important enough. One day, he called at a reasonable time, so I answered the phone. His name was John Montgomery, he was a lawyer (he claimed) and they were going to sue me, if I didn't pay them the money I owed my creditor. I politely told him my situation and offered to make a payment arrangement with him. No, he said... they want the full balance ($800.00) paid now! Again, I explained my situation and would be more than willing to set up some arrangement to send them what I could, every month. He became even more irate, went off on an angry rant for several minutes and again threatened to sue. At this I laughed, knowing damn well they weren't going to sue me for $800.00. So I started poking back. "You're a lawyer huh? Well, my uncle happens to practice law in Texas. Former Asst District Attorney, maybe you know him." At this point he started dancing around. He knew that he had been caught in his lie.

    So our conversation was basically over. I told him, when he was ready to make arrangements, to call me back and we would talk, otherwise don't bother me and I hung up. He immediately called back and before he could get 2 words out of his mouth, I again told him, "Sue me or call back when you're ready to make payment arrangements". 4 months roll by and I get a call from a John Essel, real polite, warm southern drawl. He wants to set up some arrangement with me. He then however, tries to dictate the terms and insists on giving them my banking information... but don't worry, they'll only take out the set amount, every month. I told him straight up, what I was going to send, when I was going to send it and by no means, were they going to get my bank info. He said he needed to send me a copy of the agreement and asked if I had a fax. I told him to send it to my mailing address, which he already had. A week later, I receive a form from them, asking for my banking information. No payment agreement... just a form. For those of you that don't know. Don't EVER fill one of these out. They WILL attempt to take full payment out at once and its perfectly legal for them to do so. They instead, got a cashier's check sent to them the same day, to the address on the form.

    Don't believe their lies, don't fall for their intimidation. They are not going to sue you, get your license revoked, destroy your career, etc. They aren't anything other than a collection agent. They aren't staffed with lawyers, they're staffed with people making a commission on a debt collection. Tell them the terms that are agreeable to you, that you can work with. If they can't live with that, at the time. Tell them to call back when they are ready.

    Oh yeah... The REAL Collector... "Hi, John!"

    Dear Mr COLLECTOR ("Hi, John!"),

    Doing just a little research on the web, you all have been sued. However, your threats of suing people are hollow. You are not lawyers, you are debt collectors. You want your money and you will accept whatever amount people can afford to send you. You will accept their terms, to that agreement. Typing with your CAPS LOCK on, will not change that.

    Have a nice day.

    I got a call from "David Fisher" from Lockhart,Morris and Montgomery. This is a debt collector from The College Network. This individual tried to get $7000 from me stating I signed a contract with them for that amount. When I said I disbute that, not going to pay and that I want the information sent to me. He then goes and says its from attorney fees, court filing forms,etc...I informed him that I have not recieved any forms and that I would like to speak to his suprvisor for th unprofessionalism of their offices. He quickly changed his tune and said that he'll call me back in 2 weeks so I can "try" to come up with some form of money before they file with the city clerk to sue. This is a scare tatic that almost got me til I started asking questions and demanded to recieve copies of all the forms filed and to set up a date for the deposition since I'm going to be sued. I got was a good day and now He isn't answering my calls.

    Called today with a message about a "claim."
    After reading about them online, and the fact that I don't owe anyone anything sounds pretty sleazy/criminal.

    A call back went straight to voicemail. I have no time for their fraudulent BS.

    I'll ignore them. If they make any more noise I'll turn them in to my State Attorney General.
    I suggest others do the same.

    I got the same issue with this collection agency, which is caused by college network's scam and fraudulent. Never even got anything or start the program, tried to cancel the contract many times soon after sign it, unsuccessful. Then "John Hues from "collection agency" named Lockhart Morris & Mont
    called saying they want to collect $9000 on behalf of college network, tried to explain to him that I've never start the program and tried to cancel it many times without success. But he would not even listen, and start yielding and threatening to sue me, I hang up on him. Then he called again a week later, stating they filed paper to county clerk already which I later found out it was LIE. These people nothing but punks, they are Scams, they want make easy money off somebody who's working so hard to make living.  By the way, I'm putting things together and consulting with attorneys, then I'm going to sue college network and this collection agency for their scam and fraud action. Good Luck to your end!

    Sue them and win- Danette Holmes did!
    September 14, 2010

    DANETT HOLMES, PLAINTIFF,
    v.
    LOCKHART MORRIS MONTGOMERY, INC., DEFENDANT.

    The opinion of the court was delivered by: Theresa L. Springmann United States District Court

    OPINION AND ORDER

    This matter is before the Court on the Plaintiff's Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of Plaintiff's Application for Default Judgment Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(b)(1) [ECF No. 7], filed on September 2, 2010, and the Plaintiff's Motion for Default Judgment [ECF No. 8], filed on September 13, 2010.

    The Plaintiff filed a Complaint [ECF No. 1] on January 29, 2010, alleging that the Defendant violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 1692 et seq. The Plaintiff filed an executed Summons with Proof of Service [ECF No. 4] on May 5, 2010. The Clerk's Entry of Default [ECF No. 6] was entered on May 7, 2010, against Defendant Lockhart Morris Montgomery, Inc. The Plaintiff now seeks a default judgment in the amount of $3538.30 as follows: $1000.00 in statutory damages pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)(2)(A); $2113.30 in attorney's fees; and $425.00 in filing and service fees pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)(3). Along with her Motion for Default Judgment, the Plaintiff filed a billing statement (including a billing invoice), a receipt for the costs of serving process, data regarding billing rates, and declarations by the following individuals: Alicia Mandolini, Adam T. Hill, and Harry Bradley. These declarations attest to the amount of attorney's fees incurred on the Plaintiff's behalf in this matter. The remaining amounts sought do not require any declarations because they are statutory damages pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)(2)(A) and statutory fees and costs pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)(3).*fn1

    A court may only enter default judgment after the clerk's entry of default. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a). In re Catt, 368 F.3d 789, 793 (7th Cir. 2004) ("There are two stages in a default proceeding: the establishment of the default, and the actual entry of a default judgment. Once the default is established, and thus liability, the plaintiff still must establish his entitlement to the relief he seeks."). Rule 55(a) directs the clerk to enter default "[w]hen a party against whom a judgment for affirmative relief is sought has failed to plead or otherwise defend, and that failure is shown by affidavit or otherwise." After the clerk enters default, the court may enter default judgment in the exercise of its sound discretion. O'Brien v. R.J. O'Brien & Assocs., Inc., 988 F.2d 1394, 1398 (7th Cir. 1993) ("decision to enter default lies within the district court's discretion.") (citing Merrill Lynch Mortg. Corp. v. Narayan, 908 F.2d 246, 250 (7th Cir. 1990)); Dundee Cement Co. v. Howard Pipe & Concrete Prods., Inc., 722 F.2d 1319, 1322 (7th Cir. 1983) (finding that the entry of default judgment is within the trial court's discretion). The party moving for default judgment must establish an entitlement to the relief sought. In re Catt, 368 F.3d at 793. Even when default judgment is warranted, allegations in the complaint regarding the amount of damages are not taken to be true. Id.; Dundee Cement Co., 722 F.2d at 1323. Instead, courts must ascertain with reasonable certainty the proper amount to award as damages to the prevailing party, based upon either an evidentiary hearing or from definite figures contained in documentary evidence or in detailed affidavits. In re Catt, 368 F.3d at 793; Dundee Cement Co., 722 F.2d at 1323.

    The Plaintiff has satisfied Rule 55(a)'s requirements as evidenced by the Clerk's Entry of Default [ECF No. 6] entered on May 7, 2010. The Plaintiff's request for $1000.00 in statutory damages is reasonable and within the statutory limits in 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)(2)(A). After considering the Plaintiff's Motion for Default Judgment and the attached supporting materials, the Court finds that the Plaintiff's request for $2113.30 in attorney's fees and $425 in filing and service fees is not fully supported the Plaintiff's evidence. The Court finds the billing invoice attached to the Motion for Default Judgment [ECF No. 8-2] only supports $1665.00 in attorney's fees and $415 in filing and service fees.

    Therefore, the Court GRANTS IN PART and DENIES IN PART the Plaintiff's Motion for Default Judgment [ECF No. 8]. The Plaintiff's filing of her Motion for Default Judgment renders her Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of Plaintiff's Application for Default Judgment Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(b)(1) [ECF No. 7] moot, and it is DENIED as such. The Court ORDERS the Clerk of this Court to enter judgment in favor of Danett Holmes and against Defendant Lockhart Morris Montgomery, Inc. for $3,080.00, comprising of $1,000.00 in statutory damages, $1,665.00 in attorney's fees, and $415.00 in filing and service fees.
