All of Michigan’s circuit and district courts started combing their files Friday for questionable cases brought by embattled Southfield collections attorney Howard Alan Katz and his law firm.

Katz’s lawyer, David DuMouchel, said he welcomes the investigation and said that Katz passed a lie detector test about whether he’s knowingly filed phony documents, such as process servers’ affidavits, in collections cases.

“It doesn’t surprise me at all and it doesn’t concern me at all,” DuMouchel said Friday of the statewide review.

Katz took a privately administered polygraph test Aug. 3 and “passed that examination easily as we knew he would,” DuMouchel said, adding that if the affidavits don’t withstand scrutiny, “Howard Alan Katz sure as hell didn’t know they were false.”
