Remedies Available in Debt Collection
Remedies Available in Debt Collection by
Attorney Gabriel Cosh
One of the hardest predicaments when it comes to discussions
regarding money is the issue about debt collections. Problems
concerning money loaned and the particular period of time when it
should be paid has been considered as one of the more bloody and
tedious causes of action in our present realm.
Although it is merely considered as a civil action, still its
intricacies and the fact of finding a way of obtaining a just and
equitable resolution of the same has been considered as hard and
would be comparable to any criminal cases of different nature.
However, what is in debt collection that makes the subject matter
as hard as it is? Why is it so taxing to have such a circumstance
of obtaining money from another, which in the first place has been
lent in good faith?
The answer is obvious. The reason why debt collection is considered
as one of the hardest cause of action in our realm today is that it
is a form of deprivation of property. Money is a form of property,
being as it is, the deprivation of the same without due process of
law would be considered as deprivation of man’s basic right
to property that is enshrined in our Constitution.
Logic dictates meanwhile that it would be unfair on the part of the
person whose resource has been taken without proper and on time
reparation. These antagonistic rights are actually, what makes the
problem as hard as it may actually seem.
The rights of a creditor and the obligations of the debtor are the
primary reasons making this relationship complicated. Theorist and
legal enthusiast adhere to the school of thought that in our
present society, due process of law means giving what another party
is actually due him.
That would be considered as justice to its minute detail. Hence,
since the creditor has initially been deprived of property, then it
is but proper that he be given the fair chance of obtaining the
same.
Yet, notwithstanding this right that must be afforded to the
creditor, still the debtor has rights that are protected by our
laws. These rights need to be protected and should only be taken if
there was compliance with due process of law. This is what makes
debt collection what it is today, so delicate and tedious civil
action.
