Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Complaint:
I submitted a dispute electronically regarding a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) now XXXX XXXX reporting an account where XXXX XXXX  tried to sue me in court over the account however, the case was voluntarily dismissed by XXXX XXXX. I have provided Experian with a copy of the lawsuit complaint and a copy of the dismissal ( the case was dismissed by XXXX XXXX 's attorney which I will attach a copy of the complaint and dismissal to this complaint. I don't believe that Experian is properly investigating my dispute and is just allowing the creditor to claim that the information is verified as correct and leaving the account on my credit report. The dispute was submitted on XX/XX/2022 and the results were provided XX/XX/2022. How can an investigation take only thirteen days? I think Experian is allowing XXXX to use an automated system and just claim the information is being reported accurately with little to no investigation. Additionally, I don't believe that XXXX has no intentions of collecting this alleged debt because any renewing or refiling of any lawsuit against me regarding the same claim and account would be subject to O.C.G.A. XXXX and O.C.G.A. 
XXXX. Additionally, discovery request were filed in the lawsuit filed against me that has now been dismissed and XXXX XXXX nor their attorney never responded to. Pursuant to Georgia law O.C.G.A XXXX ( a ) ( 2 ), XXXX ( b ) ( 2 ), and XXXX ( a ) ( 2 ), the party upon whom the discovery has been served shall serve a copy of the answers, and objections if any, within thirty ( 30 ) days after the service of the discovery request, except that a defendant may serve answers or objections within 45 days after service of the summons and complaint upon that defendant. The court may allow a shorter or longer time at the courts discretion. The party submitting the interrogatories may move for an order under subsection ( a ) of Code Section 9-11-37 with respect to any objection to or Page 3 of 3 other failure to answer any discovery motion/request. In regard to the request for admissions, pursuant to O.C.G.A. 
XXXX ( a ) ( 2 ) 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 his attorney. Any matter admitted under this Code section is conclusively established unless the court, on motion, permits withdrawal or amendment of the admission O.C.G.A. 9-11-36 ( b ). XXXX XXXX is refusing to remove this account from my credit report in retaliation of a lawsuit that they filed against me that their attorney dismissed and is only continuing to report this account on my credit report for the purposes of and with the intent to annoy, harass, intimidate, embarrass, and humiliate me and is nothing more than an effort to make it difficult for me to apply for and/or obtain credit and or to have to pay a higher interest rate or receive a lower credit limit if extended a line of credit and some righteous obligation to report this account to the credit bureaus. XXXX is not required by law to report this account to any credit bureau and they are not prohibited by any law from removing this account from my credit report.
