The law was DESIGNED to enable them to put a guy in jail for debts. I dont care what NAME they hang on it. Next time you read it, try between the lines.

No it was designed for the opposite by having audits which prevent debt collection. The man in the article was jailed for being a no-show not his debt. Try again. Like I said maybe read the source.

Read the article and try again. He didn't show up for court. That is why he was jailed not his debt.

Lol, keep telling yourself that

"Mr Hassenplug influenced the creation of a law under which the court can compel people with outstanding medical bills to appear in court every three months and make a defense of their poverty."
"Mr Hassenplug gets paid a portion of the debtor’s bail money. "
"When Mr Biggs failed to appear in court - at the time he was working two jobs, but still fell behind paying the family’s debt - he was sentenced to prison."
Looks more like a scam set up by Hassenplug to intentionally make the debtors fail and he gets a kickback.

I read the article and the article linked in the OP link. All were jailed for being no-shows. Try again.

Having a standard audit review to establish if one can not be sued is normal. It is a form of probation as relieve from civil suits.
Which is for the debt. The government is paying of the defendant's debt via bail.
Failed to appear...... Read what you post. Take a vacation day or talk to your boss.
Nope as the law direct no funds to Hassenplug from those he does not represent. Maybe show up to your court date.....
Psst, Americans already pay more in public healthcare costs per capita than most countries. Don’t tell anyone, it’s a secret.

"When Mr Biggs failed to appear in court -"
"A radiologist had sued her over a $230 bill, and she’d missed one hearing too many."
"thousands of people are jailed each year for failing to appear in court for unpaid bills"
They are being sued for bills. They do not show to their court dates. They are charged with contempt of court which has a sentence. They decide to pay the bond instead of sitting in jail for their own failure to show to their own case.... The court provides relief from civil suites if the person meets the poverty criteria. A person not showing up to such a case is a moron....
Try again son.

No as contempt of court and jail is normal in civil and criminal law. It is not unique to this law at all. Try again. Look up what a bench warrant is.... Contempt of court is the court take action against a person disrespecting the court and process as they are wasting the courts and everyone's time. More so as the this court is designed to provide legal relieve from civil suits.

Like I say, a loophole using criminal law to aid and abet a civil matter designed and applied by a cynical society.

Nope as contempt of court, fines and jail time are normal. Do not take on debt you can not afford...
