Re: Different Legal Opinion ...
The only way to find out whether any of you lawyers are right is to file a small claims suit and see what happens. (It's a good think Pedro doesn't have to pay for all this legal advice by the hour. ;))
All I can say is that it's cheap and simple to file a small claims action in my state. I think that was the idea behind the original post. I've had to do it twice (and have won both times), once against a very large Manhattan commercial real estate firm that was dragging its feet in returning a security deposit for office space we had rented. The poor guy they sent down to the court clearly didn't want to be there and when an arbitrator came in, he whipped out his checkbook and paid what he owed, plus court costs. We never even went before a judge and we were out of there in no time. All we wanted to do was get our money from the deadbeats and we succeeded by making life a little difficult for them. That's what it's about, unlike the ridiculous poster who claimed it was "vengeance." It's nothing of the sort.The only way to find out whether any of you lawyers are right is for an IMS victim to file a small claims suit and see what happens.
