If only a valid debt can be paid... what makes you think that you can "pay" it?& "Discharging" a debt is your right under HJR 192.& No real 'property' is leaving your hands.& In the case of a money&judgment, there are several ways to go about cleaning it up.


First of all, the gov. OWES YOU.& When you "discharge" a debt your BoE should end up in the hands of the Treasurer.& It then becomes the responsibility of the Treasurer to ascertain whether or not to honor the "debt" as "valid" and see that the discharge is completed.& The gov. isn't going to "credit" anyone (collector) unless they can substantiate the debt is valid.


It seems to me that all we are really doing is shifting the responsibility to our debtor -- the gov.& Almost the same way in which a "creditor" shifts the responsibility of collecting a debt to the "collector".


Once a BoE is tendered to the collector, you would have to file a "satisfaction of money judgment" with the court.& In your case you may need to request a "release" from garnishment as well.


Another way to go may be to motion for the judgment to be vacated on the principle that you cannot pay a debt due to the fact that there is no money in circulation with which to pay a debt.& For this you would use a "Lawful Money motion to vacate".
