Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts

Because Capital One is a corporation, and considered an individual, it cannot be represented in court by anyone other than an attorney. If Capital One (by and through its counsel) does not show up to a court date, the case can be dismissed. If you would like some assistance in seeking a dismissal, or in understanding your case, please feel free to contact my office.

You can argue that it SHOULD be dismissed. I would maybe hire a lawyer to help you make sure that process went smoothly. If you know which Court, a lawyer may know who will be there that day, and be able to help you.

If the Court does allow it, keep a copy of the Judgment. Be aware, Capital One may get a new law firm, which may seek to undo the Judgment. ....if that happens, get a lawyer to help you.

Good luck!

While you may file a motion to dismiss for failure of the Plaintiff or their attorney to appear, they may hire other substitute counsel to oppose it and/or seek reinstatement of the case.

You would be well advised to retain counsel to represent you. Good Luck!
