GE had reported the account as charged off before I returned and never repaid the {$1000.00} paid in excess or removed the {$2500.00} that was reported still owed. The Virginia DOJ had settled my case with GE Capital after my law suit that was filed XXXX XXXX, XXXX and GE responded to the Court on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and I emailed XXXX XXXX the XXXX DOJ on that same day, he was the Paralegal who I had provided all of my court documents to in XXXX XXXX, and the GE account statements.

I then XXXX to XXXX in XXXX XXXX in support of the military operation when I was notified that my XXXX Clearance was being adjudicated and they wanted information concerning any of the payments made to me for the unresolved accounts. I thought it was a typo, but I had been reporting my creditors for SCRA violations after they had signed Consent Orders for the SCRA, but I had n't ever been compensated, which resulted in the Adjudicator wanting information about the outstanding debts that had been reported. I have emails from XXXX XXXX up to XXXX XXXX between the XXXX. Paralegal, the JAG Attorneys and the emails forwarded between us, XXXX XXXX said the GE Money Bank, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX filed in my law suit were provided to the Legal Assistance Office JAG Attorney.
