Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

being sued for repoed lease vehicle

Car was repoed an sold and I am being sued for the remaining balance. I need to file a written answer with the court and was wondering if this looks correct for a Denial Answer

General Denial

Defendant denies the allegations and demands strict proof.

Defendant specifically denies that the vehicle was sold in a commercially reasonable manner or that all required notices were properly given.

Demand for Jury

Defendant demands a jury trial on all issues and tenders the fee with this answer.

Request for Disclosure

Under the authority of Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 194, defendant requests that plaintiff disclose, within 30 days of the service of this request, the information or material described in Rule 194.2 (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), and (i).

Prayer

For these reasons, defendant asks for the following relief: a judgment that plaintiff take nothing, that the court assess the costs against plaintiff, and that the court award defendant all other relief, in law and in equity, to which defendant is entitled.

Respectfully submitted,
