However, even meeting in the middle between what BG said and what I sad, the horse wouldn't be paid for yet. <br /><br />Also I always thought there was so much inconsistency in what he said, they wouldn't know what to believe from him, his credibility would be so compromised. The only way they were going to get testimony that I was lying was by people who were willing to perjure themselves to say whatever BG and WF needed. I was prepared for that as well in my rebuttal. <br /><br />As for money, BG and WF certainly had more at their disposal than me, but I knew that WF was not going to spend the money this horse cost to get him. She wanted him cheap so suspected she wouldn't want to pay a lot of money to the attorney.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-87549397946795981192011-03-14T15:32:34.837-07:002011-03-14T15:32:34.837-07:00You have some great logic going on there.

Like Fern said- there's only one version of the truth and keeping your story straight is easy. <br /><br />Problem is, when it gets to court, they figure there are three versions of the truth. Yours, theirs and what really happened. <br /><br />Like others have said though, sometimes the justice system tends to favor those with the bigger bank accounts and the attorneys they can afford.Cut-N-Jumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10355349642284506192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-48155482603314544222011-03-14T09:57:44.873-07:002011-03-14T09:57:44.873-07:00NuzzMuzz, nope except for a few exceptions, maybe ...NuzzMuzz, nope except for a few exceptions, maybe three times, I was always there at the same time BG was there. There is no question in their minds about who did the work. They just believe they can get paid for it regardless of who did it. <br /><br />Remember her comment, "if BG touches it, it counts." That's what it is about. WF believes it doesn't matter how much work I did, BG should still get paid for everything.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-6494010961566273662011-03-14T08:24:12.271-07:002011-03-14T08:24:12.271-07:00What interests me is the confusion between whether...What interests me is the confusion between whether he did something or you did it.

That gave me time to think about what I would do. Then I began working on obtaining evidence immediately. Even what I said in my emails was for the purpose of getting information against them. <br /><br />Vee was a darling baby. I remember she stole my heart until Dare arrived and then I dropped poor Vee for her snotty sister. I do have too many horses to be breeding so I guess I'll just have to remember the great times with babies in the past. I think maybe I'll even do some posts on these babies and their attitudes. That should help fill the void. LOL<br /><br />Discovery was a huge task but it worked out pretty well. More of that story to come.<br /><br />fern, I know that in civil matters most of the time, judges figure the issues are just missed communications and misunderstandings but the things BG and WF did went so far out there, I was confident their ulterior motives would be obvious to the court. <br /><br />dinkleberries, I have to say from my experience in court, I'm not sure the judges really read the material. Scan it yes, but really read it, not from what I could see. That part was very frustrating.<br /><br />Tracey, one things for sure, if I get myself into a mess, you can count on it being a real whopper!<br /><br />I am going through baby withdrawal but that's how it will be until my numbers are down where they need to be and these horses have found good homes. While it's sad to see horses of such quality not breeding as the age of the average Arabian horse soars above twenty, it just has to be this way until something in the economy gives.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-67641581262505258272011-03-13T21:32:18.249-07:002011-03-13T21:32:18.249-07:00Yowzers.

It's too bad you have no foals this year but you have so many things going on and so many horses to train (no thanks to BG and WF) and sell it's probably for the best this year. <br /><br />I hope by the time you got to court you had enough hard evidence to give them enough rope to hang themselves. Once you could prove all the inconsistencies in their story it shouldn't have been too hard to make the judge's eyes cross!Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-34058178375028445612011-03-13T18:00:29.432-07:002011-03-13T18:00:29.432-07:00Wow.

That you were able to not only be thinking of how to prove your point but also to get them to disprove theirs, very very subtle.<br />I am very impressed.
