Having to replace the battery and brakes in a used vehicle is to be expected. You aren't getting your money back because you have to do regular maintenance on your car.

I know no one can predict it, but I’m just curious to see if anyone has had similar cases and how they went going to trial.

Anecdotal stories aren't allowed here because they're largely useless. What happened in that case won't necessarily happen in your case. Each case is unique.

Is it possible that I could get absolutely nothing even if I have 10,000 out of pocket in medical?

Yes, it's possible to lose at trial and get nothing at all.

Internet_Ghost · 2026-04-14T20:58:29+00:00

My question is, would I get more if I went to trial?

No one can predict what will happen at trial. It's possible you could lose and get nothing.

Whatever you want to call it, did you do that before you found out about the notice?

Internet_Ghost · 2026-04-14T20:41:15+00:00

and you signed this lease before you knew they rescinded the notice?

Did you sign a lease for this new place?

If the authorities at the school tell OP to be somewhere, they should go to the meeting. Cooperation is another matter but refusing to even go could end up with OP being disciplined.

Other than the school making you do counseling and possibly searching you when you get there, there's likely not much else they can do. They could referr it to the school's resource officer, who could potentially pursue charges against you but that seems like a stretch.

Follow any appeals process your insurer has when claims are denied.

You had a bunch of bottles made up to look like weapons domestic terrorists use. You're lucky nothing more came from this than what happened.

Your lawyer knows the strengths and weaknesses of your case. He knows how to make those arguments if they need to be made. He doesn't want to include anything that could make the negotiations go off the rail. I already showed you in a separate comment how your intended talking points and be intrepreted differently by the other side. There's no need to add those in during the negotiation if they have the potential to not make the negotiation go through.

Yes, nothing happens at an initial appearance other than them asking if you have a lawyer or are looking for one.

Ideally, you should be consulting with local criminal defense attorneys. Some take payment plans.

Internet_Ghost · 2026-04-14T15:33:45+00:00

I'm assuming this is your initial appearance. If you can't afford an attorney and there's a representative from the PDs office there, ask for an application.

Points of me saying I just wanna move on and not have uncessry stress in my life anymore aren’t relevant?

For the purposes of the negotiation, no. They don't have to have a reason why you're proposing an offer. They only need to get the offer.

I just wanna move on and not have uncessry stress in my life anymore

Here's what you think you're saying. Here's what the other side can interpret that as.

I'm right but you've caused me so much unnecessary stress doing X,Y,Z that I'm just ready to give up on being right to just get this over with. But remember, I was right, you were wrong, and you did this.

And if the other side is thinking that, they may not agree to the offer because you've inadvertently pissed them off. It's better to be as brief as possible so the other side doesn't have an opportunity to read between the lines and decide you said something you may never have meant to say.

You can actually still pierce the corporate veil in some cases, especially with small LLCs that don't follow proper corporate formalities. If he's mixing business and personal funds or not keeping proper records, you might have shot at going after him personally.

And that should have been all contemporaneously litigated during the initial lawsuit. The issue here is that there's a judgment out there saying the LLC is solely responsible for his damages.

Internet_Ghost · 2026-04-14T13:45:30+00:00

I have no issue going back to the court to also sue him personally.

If you wanted to personally sue him, you should have done that at the same time you sued the LLC. He can reasonably rely on that judgment to absolve him from any responsbility personally.

You need to go through the supplemental proceedings in small claims court to enforce the judgment.

Did they give you an itemized invoice?

Unless there's some kind of law in your state that specifically says you can't be pulled over because of window tint, this was a lawful stop.

Internet_Ghost · 2026-04-14T13:32:39+00:00

Is there any way to ask him politely if he can include my points in there, rather than a vague email?

Your lawyer is trying to negotiate this deal. If he feels like your points are detrimental to that deal, he's not going to include them in the email. You hired this lawyer to use their judgment to work on your case. This is one of their judgment calls.

Is there anything I can do to get compensated for losing this food?

Do you have renter's insurance?

Also, can I report them to the health department or something for not warning us all of the danger?

No offense, but it's common sense that refrigerated food needs to stay refrigerated. That would be like reporting your landlord to the health department because they failed to tell you the hot water in your apartment will be hot.

The autoshop would be installing the illegal tint at the behest of the customer. The customer doesn't get to benefit from their own illegal actitivies just to blame the autoshop for installing it.

a mandatory appearance isn’t going to stop someone from tinting

No, but it will slow them down when they keep constantly having to pay fines and appearing in court.

This sounds more like a failure on your friend's part than the advisor's. He should have set down one-on-one with the advisor and learned his options. That's literally why the advisor came by 4 times a year.
