So most of you remember that we had reached a verbal settlement agreement with the contractor from HADES at the end of July. We were under the impression that he had signed it and that the paperwork was being finalized. About 2 weeks ago we finally heard from our lawyers that no one knew where the freak was, not even his lawyer. He had not signed the agreement. We officially heard just now that he will not settle. Does someone have a large piece of wood to apply to the back of my head? Shelley has a meeting at 2:30 Thursday to see what to do now. We are royally screwed..........we don't have another $10,000 to litigate this. I'm just stunned right now...........

I am confused.. I thought you had pretty much given him what he wanted to get him off your back.

Oh no, Shannon. I'm so sorry. I hope something else can be done that won't involve you paying out thousands more in legal fees.


People can be so ridiculous sometimes.


Big hugs

Oh, God, now I understand the email. I thought that was all said and done. Do you mean that his lawyer actually advised him not to sign or he told his lawyer that he wasn't signing? Who drafted the settlement? This really sucks. I can't believe it. I don't know what to say. This is awful. I hate it when I don't have control of things and this sounds like right where you are!

What happened was he said he wanted $5,000 to settle and we very reluctantly agreed. Before the paper work could be done quickly (we'd been in mediation all day) he left for Oregon for a week. But, he said he would settle. Our lawyers drew it all up, we signed and gave our lawyers $5,000 to be given to him once he signed the paperwork. His lawyer wanted him to sign, he's sick of him from what we've all seen. He wanted this settled. So, I think this is all the contractors idea. He told the mediator that we are loaded..........I have no clue where his bong residue filled brain got that from. Yes, we make decent money, can pay our bills and have a home with alot of equity in it. But, we are not rolling in it, I'm a student for the love of God! He thinks we have more $$$ to go after. Plus, he has a lein on this house, so if he won a large judgement against us the house would be sold to settle the judgement.

I guess we'll see what our lawyers think on Thursday, but I'm really sick of all this..........

I can see why you would be more than a little stressed over this. I really hope your lawyers can find a way out of this for you. I wish I had some useful advice to put in here but all I can offer is some {{{{hugs}}}}}. I'll go buy a lotto ticket eh

We just got back from the lawyers. We have a few options, none of which is cheap. I'm not sure what the plan is right now. This could go on for another 6+ months. I'm really stressed right now, I feel like vomiting.

Oh Hun i am so sorry! I wish i could take away the stress. Maybe with some time...you can sort out an option you can live with. I dont understand that guy. Does your lawyer understand his game...or is it so wacky, there is nothing to understand?
