Joe:

If Barrie takes it to the Circuit Court we'll hear a lot more laughter by the judge there.

The amount in controversy in this case is less than $5,000.00. An appeal would be throwing good money after bad; a very foolish thing to do. Of course, that never deterred her in the past.

Barrie needs to face the facts: she is done. She keeps trying to hang on; in her own mind she thinks she is superior; she is wrong. She has a record of losing when the Courts hear cases She Who Must Be Obeyed thinks are air-tight. She lost, Joe won--she'll just have to get over it!

What screwel did you attend -- Barrie sued for $9,999.00 -- that "exceeds $5,000".

When she gets her bills from her Easton lawyers she will wish she had dropped the whole thing. The only thing they know how to do is appeal,appeal appeal. They aren't smart enough to win so they will drag this out to the Court of Appeals.... That is three court cases past this one. She would do well to forget it and move on but she is too bullheaded.... so at $250 an hour it could get expensive!
