I thought that since he came here to my home to conduct part of the transaction (pick up a payment) that may entitle me to enough standing to sue him here in Morristown. Also, I am looking to research info about whether or not his business is registered in his county and also whether or not...

I live in Morristown, TN Through recommendations of a local car club, I found a shop in a town called Kingston, about 2 hours away to paint my car. I contacted the owner via internet and we agreed on a price of $3400 and timeline of 3-6 weeks to do the job. 3-17-15 I delivered my car to the...

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Well, that was rather anticlimactic. So basically I am free to post anyone's home address and phone number on an internet site and no one can ever force me to take it down, correct? Somehow, I feel like there is a double standard in place whereby large companies and websites can get by with it...

I run a small business from my home, repairing cars and building engines. I have done this since 2001. The business is not incorporated and in reality probably has no legal standing at all. I am in a residential area so even if I wanted to go completely legit, I cannot even obtain a city...

Well, as it turns out, I didn't know about the ticket until a letter showed up in the mail saying, "you were ticketed for a parking violation and did not come to court, you owe us $103 and you have 7 days to pay or your license will be suspended". I'm told (by them) that there is nothing I can...

In the state of TN, can an unpaid parking ticket assigned to a vehicle (no driver was present when ticket was issued) result in a suspension of the drivers license of the owner? I do not see how they can automatically tie the ticket to the registered owner or prove that he was the person...

I need to appeal a civil judgement in Oklahoma, but I'm having a hard time finding the appropriate forms online and am almost out of time to file before the judgement becomes final. My attorney referred me to www.oscn.net for the research (it is too expensive for me to pay him to do the appeal...

Just as an update, possession of the engine as well as shipping charges and arrangements were not detailed in the judgement so I have asked my attorney to seek clarification regarding that. Is it normal for a judge not to outline all aspects of the decision? This seems a fairly obvious void, for...

Here are some issues that I strongly disagree with regarding this case: 1) I apparently do not meet minimum contacts in Ok. I do not advertise there and have only sold 2-3 items over the last several years (including this engine). My only form of advertising is my website. 2) the buyer called...

hmmm...perhaps there is a misunderstanding here. I live in Tn. The Plaintiff lives in Ok. He sued me in Ok. I hired an attorney in Ok to represent me. Initially this was just to challenge that Ok had jurisdiction in the case. Ok eventually ruled that they did have jurisdiction and the case...

Well, just got word on the decision. Judge awarded him most of what he was originally seeking, minus the outrageous $3k remove/install charges that the dealership quoted. He took the $2800 engine and depreciated it $800 for 8k miles/2yrs use and awarded him 2000 on it. He awarded $1000 for...

The remote attorney in OK recommended highly against letting them get the default judgement against me because he felt it would be difficult to fight it in TN after it had been awarded in OK. HE says that since I cannot show that I did not know about it (in that I was served), and I cannot show...

hello? anyone?

nobody has any further thoughts?

BTW, to add a couple things I forgot: both attorneys still HIGHLY recommend against me letting OK get a default judgement, because they feel that TN would be inclined to honor that foreign judgement. Unless we could show a MAJOR operational error on the part of the court, which they feel we...

UPDATE: I found a local OK attorney to represent my interest remotely through the jurisdiction/venue hearings. Both my local TN attorney as well as the OK attorney felt that OK did not have jurisdiction. Because I never advertised there. The buyer picked up the phone and called me to complete...

Sorry to bump an old thread guys, but I thought it might be better than creating a whole new one since all the back info is here. A couple months ago when this was first an issue, my attorney replied to the threat letter I'd received. It basically said that asking for the entire cost was...

He explained the reasoning behind not wanting to go as follows: the suit would be for 3 grand (maybe a bit more if they try to get removal labor costs as well) and a short-notice plane ticket there and back will probably be 500 or more, plus a room for the night while out there, so even if I...

Well I mean, it is not like selling this engine out of state was an isolated incident. The forum that it was sold on is a nationwide forum and I do make sales nationwide on a consistent basis...to my recollection I had never sold anything significant to a buyer in OK before, perhaps once or...
