First it was not passed, then it was re reviewed and passed.
Now Anyone with a slip of paper with a bill can get a judgement on someone. I will also add links to the actual bill.

Now, if you have a medical bill, lets say and you have SS, you are very ill, people who buy your debt can now go to court with little evidence , out of state, and have a judgement passed on you. Your check can be garnished, and you can be out on the street.

Who can afford to goto court out of state to defend themselves!
This law is insane on so many possible issues. Never mind, Az has a high identity theft problem too.

The governor has yet to pass it. She is the last step. If you live in AZ, raise your voice. A single lobbyist is responsible for this monster and the spent a lot of money.

Jeff Dial, the sponsor, will not comment to the news station.

They are passing this under our noses. What is next? Making our survivors pay our debts?

Someone needs to activate the "politician removal machine". Then sight it in on Jeff Dial.

I live here, but I tell ya, I more and more want to MOVE.
