It's been a long time coming and I have renewed faith that there is justice. I'm glad this chapter of my life long book is closed. We went there with great evidence and to speak only the truth. Even though we knew we were right, you just never know what can happen. They offered me $1250 to settle before court and after talking with Steve we decided to go for it. I had nothing to lose. I didn't need the money although it is nice, I went for the principle of the deal. So taking a settlement that didn't fit the crime seemed like losing to me. We deicded to let the truth come out and if I may say so did an exelent job in court presenting the facts while these guy's grabbed at straws. The Judge saw right through it and kept the proceedings on track while these guy's tried to throw them off track. I am proud of our effort needless to say!! Steve did an great job today! if it wasn't for him I would have lost.
I made the final decision to turn down the offer and go in front of the judge and here's why.
If you know Steves and my history then you know we don't like to lose. Since we were on the same team and had our sh&t together I figured let's let them have it. They were up against two winner's and had nothing but opinion to offer! We had proof and a desire to win so I figured let's have at it. I didn't go this far to take a settlement, I had intended to go all the way if need be, so I did. I'm really glad I made that decision not because of the money, but because of all the wrong's that go unpunished due to people afraid of consequence and circumstance it was time to stuff some of this down the right hole. If you know what I mean.
I thank Steve for backing me up on the deal, you don't find better friends than him! Period.
