Naw man. He can say whatever 😒,. I just know "whatever" will never ever be said to me in person.

💢🤌
Imma just drop some advice. When you beefing with someone on the internet the more heated you get the more you lose. Just agree to disagree and move on. Real life is different but I apply the same to real life unless it’s personal threats on me or family. When you on the internet don’t start talking tough, say your points and move on.

Bro do you actually think I'm heated? I'll never meet most of yous anyway. Needless to say if we did meet no one in they right mind would act out of turn so carelessly.

The actually funniest thing is you lot assuming I'm actually mad. But I'll keep up the entertainment.

Lest the drama die down, could someone accuse the OP of never intending to have a motor built but just hide the existence of the parts from his ex's divorce attorney until after the divorce.
I wasn't necessarily hiding parts, but stopped all projects at that point. We came up with a mutual agreement, she basically got a good chunk of cash and most of my 401 k. I kept the house, my military retirement, airplanes, race car and everything associated with them, but I also got all the debt (house and airplane loan). Anyways, I probably wasn't exactly above board, however this would have been a net negative of about 8k to take away from her as if it had gone to inventory I would have insisted on all parts in hand and this would have happened sooner. And in the end, I was more than generous with the mutual agreement, she a good bit more than half without having to pay any legal fees.

Pred block, callies crank, dss pistons, boostline rods, bearings, arp kit, and probably a couple more small things.
Dam, all the sweet stuff. Sorry to hear about your problems, to bad you cannot find where he lives and go give him a visit.

That was much of the point of my long winded post. MOST LIKELY even if you try to pursue "criminal" charges, if the shitbag can show that he's some sort of business and that he's simply struggling, law enforcement will chalk it up to a civil matter. You'd have to PROVE that he intentionally defrauded (with preemption) rather than he's just defaulting on a business venture/interaction. Of course, that's easier if the LE conducts searches and raids of his documents, communications, etc. But they won't do that. They just don't GAF and they'll sleep soundly under the guise that it's just something for litigation to resolve.

Once you're in THAT circumstance, you start to realize you'll spend more on attorneys and representation than you did on the loss and despite all the TV lawyer shows, the reality is damages for legal expenses is a toss up and it's up to the judge. You can petition for it and try to recover and make the losing party pay for legal expenses but it's not a certainty at all. (in essence, even if you WIN your case, you COULD not get compensation for your legal expenses so EVEN IF you somehow collect, which is always a crap shoot as well, it could be that it's not even enough to pay your attorney fees).

It's complete bullshit the state of our legal system (both civil and criminal) in respect to this stuff. It's similar to grand theft auto. Cops and LE in general do not GAF about auto theft. They just don't. With all the zillions of cameras and footage, you could catch 99% of auto theft in even remotely urbanized locales (which is where it's most occurring) with some simple investigation work (and access to camera footage). But they won't do it. Why? That's what insurance is for (at least in their minds). The only time they'll GAF about it is if they happen to stumble onto the plates of a stolen vehicle or happen upon it in a different search warrant. They rarely actively pursue missing vehicles just for the sake of recovering a vehicle. Their attitude is "that's what insurance is for."
Yup... same with the cops around here. If it wasn't forcibly taken off your person (robbery), they won't even talk to you about it. They are pretty much condoning fraud and essentially "legalizing" it.

I did but he sent his wife to the door, and jail is worse than what I could get from him.

I guess he probably doesn't have a Pot to Piss in much less your parts or money to give you. Taking him to small claims court might be your best option at least up to 5K I think, at least you don't have to hire a lawyer which would cost thousands. Good Luck

I would try that. Especially if he cannot be held accountable by the legal system. Anyone find out what the name of his "shop" is?

A few pages back (ok probably a lot of pages back at this point) someone posted the address for Bob’s Machine Shop. Jackson shares a building with that guy and street view on Google Maps has a banner with his “shop” name

He shares space? What is the name of it. Some one said they couldn't find his business license. If you can get that then you can go after him that way.

I figured you were, wasn't upset just being transparent as it could appear I was trying to cheat my x.
