I'm a pro se litigant. I'm not seeking legal advice. Rather you're opinion as a youtuber. My requests for admissions were not responded to after he acknowledged and received them after 45 days. I filed with the court the the admissions were deemed admitted. The plaintiff was "frustrated" with me. He said he sent them via email from and old paralegal who no longer worked there. And that they sent it in a big yellow document via postal mail. I have not found these documents. Seeing as by Tennessee Civil Rules he has no proof of service, it should be admitted right? Do you think he has any objections he could make here? Do you think the Judge might utilize findings of the court and pass judgment? The admissions highlight the plaintiff breaching contract. Thanks!!!! Liked and subbed!
Hi there! Unfortunately, I really don't know how the court in Tennessee would handle this situation. The laws vary significantly from state to state, so you would really need to speak with an attorney in your state about how you should handle the situation. I wish you the best of luck!
@@dolandivorcelawyerspllc7203 Thanks for the response. I have no attorney. I am the pro se litigant. Another TN Attorney told me it would be admitted unless the court gave him another chance. I'm just trying to predict any objections the opposing attorney would make. The Tennesssee Rules of Civil Procedure state, "
Each matter of which an admission is requested shall be separately set forth. The matter is admitted unless, within 30 days after service of the request, or within such shorter or longer time as the court may allow, the party to whom the request is directed serves upon the party requesting the admission a written answer or objection addressed to the matter, signed by the party or by the party's attorney, but, unless the court shortens the time, a defendant shall not be required to serve answers or objections before the expiration of 45 days after service of the summons and complaint upon the defendant."

If they don't answer, it's deemed admitted. Period.
I would file a motion to compel with a Good Faith Certificate (Reminder/nudge to party refusing to answer), then file a Motion for Default Judgment pointing to everything deemed admitted.
If the court still ignores your motions....everything is filed on the record which preserves the record for Appeal.
