Thanks ragman,
Ironically this is not the first time, this is the 3rd attempt at breaking me, taking me for everything I've worked for.
The first two were contractors, I thought perhaps I'd have better luck with the women, sadly not so.
They, and I mean the officials too, make the rules up as they go along here.
They just maintain a semblance of a system of law and order, justice is almost never actually put into practice.
On my last trip to court despite having reams of paperwork, I could not get one sheet of evidence in, and barely a word in my defense.
The magistrate examined a chicken-scratch non-notarized note from the landlord saying I had told him he could take the monthly rent money from her.
This was merely a practical measure, she had issued a restraining order to keep me off my own premises under the false allegation of domestic violence.
The Magistrate interpreted this unofficial second hand evidence as my intention to give up my lease on the property I had poured thousands of dollars into?
I was sitting there with the official notarized lease in hand, predating this scribbled note, she dismissed us, would not look at it.
So apparently it is legal to simultaneously lease the same piece of property to two different parties!
It is in San Pedro Court anyway. Go figure!
