How do I find out which debt buyer is suing me in Fremont County?

The plaintiff's name is at the top of the court papers you were served. If the plaintiff is a company you never did business with — LVNV Funding, Portfolio Recovery, Midland Credit Management, and similar names — it is a debt buyer that purchased the account, not your original creditor. You can also look your own case up on Wyoming Judicial Branch — court information and case access.

What is a debt buyer?

A company that purchases defaulted accounts from banks and lenders, typically for a small fraction of the balance, and then collects or sues in its own name. In court, a debt buyer must prove it owns your specific account through each link in the chain of assignment, and prove the amount with admissible records.

Debt buyers in Fremont County, Wyoming

A handful of companies file most of the collection lawsuits heard in Circuit Court (Wyoming) in Fremont County. They are debt buyers — firms that purchase charged-off accounts from banks for pennies on the dollar and then sue in their own name. Most of their cases end in default judgments because the person sued never responds. When a defendant does respond, the buyer has to prove it owns the specific account and prove the amount — with real records.

The deadline that decides these cases

Wyoming's response is a written Answer, and the deadline is unusual: in circuit court it is due within thirty-five (35) days after the date the complaint was FILED with the court — not the date you were served — excluding the day of filing. The filing date is printed on the Notice of Filing you receive, and the clerk can confirm it. The Answer is where denials go on the record and where affirmative defenses, including the statute of limitations, must be raised.

If no answer is filed with the clerk and served on the plaintiff's attorney within 35 days of filing, a default judgment may be entered against you without the plaintiff ever proving the debt. (Statute of limitations: Wyo. Stat. § 1-3-105)
