Consumer Credit Transation Court filings; The Saga Continues

Jillina Kwiatkowski sent out a note recently stating that another change has occurred int the Consumer Credit Transaction rule. I am quoting for her letter; Thanks to the work of Bill Mlotok, a current Board Member of N.Y.S.P.P.S.A., the clerk has reversed that decision when it comes to services based on last known address. Now, if a service is completed based on a last known address provided by the DMV; a default judgment can be awarded regardless of the mailing.

Prior to this, the Chief Clerk of New York City had issued a ruling that all service on Consumer Credit Transactions must be filed with a stamped envelope with a copy of the transaction addressed to the named defendant with the return address being that of the court. If the mailing is returned, then the plaintiff would not be awarded a default judgment.
