Craig I totally agree with you, but mediation could help bring this thing to it's knees. Don't forget, it cost money for everyone to go to court, not just the...
I agree with Craig. Mediation is BEFORE you go to court. If you cannot reach and agreement through mediation then, you go to court. I am not a lawyer but I...

Note the involvement of the various state AG's offices. Most of the leasing companies settled, therefore that leaves just a few left, who did not. One is in...
I meant the only one they have filed against is IFC. It appears the only action left in town is the suit against IFC, who has spent so much money, they have...
