Finally!

So just over three years ago, I was sitting at a stop light and the light turned green. I began to go - only to realize (too late) that the car in front of me was not going. So I bumped him. If you've ever wondered why my license plate is crooked - now you know. His car wasn't even scratched, but apparently his back was nearly broken. A week after this accident he felt back pain and went to a back doctor who told him to call a lawyer. Needless to say I was sued. And as of Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009 I can finally put behind me the accident I had on Tuesday, December 20th, 2005!!!

So after a full day of talking to the judge, selecting the jury, testifying, waiting for deliberations and all that stuff I'm finally done with it. And the lovely gentleman got his money - except he got $400 less than what was offered to him to settle last week.

So fine - the jury said I was negligent - but he still didn't get what he wanted.

Greed will get you no where! Especially when you are up against the prayers of God's people.

I still can't believe he sued you!! And that the jury agreed with him... But, I'm glad it's over for you!
