<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1264866, member: 26302&quot;]It simply says he CAN go to court and have the debt discharged. Of course a judge can discharge a debt if he believes the debt owner is being unreasonable but its not a law. Legal tender means the debtor made a legal attempt to pay, and the holder refused payment. This legal act prohibits the debt holder to say the debtor is overdue, or charge interest. If you tried to pay your house off with pennies, they can refuse you. Now, that act woudl prevent them from charging you interest on the debt, but if they sued you for payment I am pretty sure the judge would force you to pay the debt in a less onerous manner.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your situation was unusual since you became in debt to the gas station by pumping the gas. The situation would have been completely different if you walked in and wanted to buy $10 worth of groceries. Then they had every right to simply say NO, I willl not sell you anything for pennies, and they have every right in the world to do so. Also, if they would have posted on the gas pump no payment in pennies then you pumping gas and then trying to pay in pennies were breaking the law for theft.</p><p><br /></p><p>You are not golden sir, though you may think you are.
