Question by Laydee Y: Will this complaint go to court or should I find out how to counter sue?
We disagreed on money owed (by a friend who broke her neck-I was picking something up for her) & I started to leave, he said he would call the police, I said go ahead & walked out, pretty peeved, got in my car, looked onto the street for on-coming traffic, put it in reverse, stepped on the gas to back out and get on the road(I was parked against a curb), then out pops the guy from the back of my car, he was crouched down with a pen& paper taking down my license plate number-I couldn’t see him until he jumped out. The car didn’t touch him but the complaint was that I tried to run him over. I left & returned to my friend’s house. She said she spoke to him & he said that due to his mental anguish of almost being run-over by me, he filed a commplaint for his “mental injuries”. He also said he would drop all charges but it would cost me 0.00. I called him to tell him I’d be glad to pay him what was owed (.00 was all) and he said about the same as he said to my friend… that he would drop all charges BUT it would cost me 0. A detective called me today and got my side of what happened.
I would love to see everyone’s comments on whether you think the case will go to trial or should I sue him and the place of business where he works and where this happened for slander and extortion.

  1. Nahhhh, the charges will never stick & you’ll just be wasting your money. Chill!

  2. This is a case that will never see a courtroom. He’s basically trying to extort money from you. Poor traumatized little baby.

  3. Why has your society become some litigious ? Something like this would never happen in UK. It’s so sad.
