Finding the Important Linchpin in Pleadings to Kill the Debt Collection Case

Hi Brian,
I understand that any response is not legal advice and that your comments do not create an attorney-client relationship of any kind.
I’m preparing for a small claims case in Massachusetts where LVNV Funding, represented by Stillman Law, is suing me for an alleged Citibank debt.

Stillman told me they submitted several documents to the court, including a Bill of Sale, a Transfer and Assignment agreement, and a generic unsigned credit card statement from 2021 and not 2014. However, I went to the clerk’s office and personally reviewed the court file. None of those documents were in the official file as Stacey Connor from Stillman claimed.

They sent these documents to me directly by mail and email as I requested (two people fought hard so that I wouldn’t receive them) but never actually filed them with the court. I believe they may have done this either to intimidate me or try to get me to admit to the debt without a formal filing.

The documents themselves are flawed as you showed countless times in your videos for example, the Bill of Sale includes an undated Terri Bergman signature that you showed proof in your case against Calvary that the signatures are often different and never dated.

My question is:

Can I reference those documents in my argument without submitting them, solely to show that even what they sent me fails to prove ownership or standing, and then ask the court to bar them from submitting these documents at trial because they were not previously filed or authenticated?

Would that approach support my motion for dismissal? I want to avoid helping them build their case while still exposing the inconsistencies and procedural failures.

Thank you for all you do, your work has been incredibly helpful in preparing my defense.
