They must obtain a SEARCH WARRANT from a JUDGE?


Probable cause means there is a crime. And was there a reason for the police to believe there is a crime currently taking place? 

The Fourth Amendment is the section of the Constitution that addresses search and seizure.

If the police search your belongings without a warrant then your rights to privacy have been violated.

Tell the JUDGE and your lawyer that you expect your rights to privacy be protected.

What good is the 4th Amendment if you are not stating you expect your right to privacy.

NOLO & DEBT COLLECTION LAWS


Knowing the Law can help you protect your rights.

I had some trouble getting legal information when I needed it the most. The NOLO books are available in the public library and these books helped me find the legal information I needed.

I found the NOLO books where in the public library.  The book that I am currently referencing is 18th Edition NOLO Solve Your Money Troubles , Strategies to Get Out of Debt and Stay that Way.

Authors: Attorneys Amy Loftsgordon & Cara O'Neill 


NOLO as a LEGAL REFERENCE GUIDE - OCTOBER 2022 STUDENT LOANS

President Joe Biden early in 2021 , extended student loan repayment until at least September 30, 2022. Then again he extended payment until December 31, 2022.  This applies to Federal Student loans owned by the US Department of Education. This includes FFEL (Federal Family Education Loans) owned by the US Department of Education and Direct Loans.

I do have a FFEL loan but it is not owned by the US Department of Education. Originally it was owned by the US Department of Education (1998) but I consolidated the loan in 2003.


During the payment suspension period which began March 13, 2020. The loan servicer required I continue to update the IDR forms yearly.  As well the loan continued to accrue interest.

One important question, the loan servicer advises me to consolidate this loan again. What type of loan will it be? Will the loan capitalize the interest if I consolidate? 

Next Topic: Get information about the original student loan debt.  Obtain a copy of the original promissory note.
