| Next question, what if she hasn't transferred ownership through AQHA? I believe I am still listed as the current owner. I haven't gone online to check, but she didn't even care about me mailing her registration papers to her; of course I did - but makes me doubt she did anything with them.
StayceeM - not the mare you're thinking of, we still have her and King :) |

Did you give her a bill of sale? I don't think the court cares about the ass. papers. The only time I went to court over a horse deal the judge did not care about ass. papers he just wanted proof of sale and that money had exchanged hands. |

   Location: Its on the House | This is true, court will not recognize the AQHA papers, but they will raise an eyebrow on a coggins. State issued it has more pull. Go figure lol. |

| I figured as much about the AQHA papers, but certainly didn't hurt to ask :) The more I can get on her, the better lol.
We have lots of pictures - She was trained to drive by the amish so we have driving pictures, pictures of my sister using her in Western Pleasure in 4H, a picture of my dad riding her on a trail ride. No videos unfortunately. |

 Can You Hear Me Now?
       Location: When you hit the middle of nowhere .. Keep driving | My brother sold a jet ski with a contract saying "as is" an the women knew it needed work. She came back and sued him a few months later for $1000 more then the purchase price because she claimed she didn't know how much it would cost to fix. Long story short she won and Jay had to pay $3500 for a jet ski got $2000 for originally after all the court costs. She got to keep it too and they had a contract/Bill of sale. I know it not a horse but it's an example.
Always come super prepared with as much evidence and as many witnesses as possible and never think she doesn't have a case.

So it was his responsibility to tell her how much the repairs cost??? So what good is an "as is" clause? Can we buy a used car that has "as is" in the contract, and then come back later and sue the seller later to pay for repairs? What justification did the judge give for awarding her money??? |

| I just wanted to come back and thank you all for your wonderful suggestions. We had court on Wednesday, and I received a text from the woman suing me, stating she called and found out the judge had dismissed our case, followed by a couple of harassing texts. Excited to put this behind me. Just wish the poor horse wasn't still in her possession :( |

Thank goodness common sense prevailed with a decent judge. I feel your pain about the horse, though. |

Good news!!!! FYI using a phone to make threating or harassing remarks is a Federal offence. You might want to let her know that. |

Make sure you confirm this with the judge or office handeling it. |

     Location: Oklahoma | I would definitely confirm with the court that the case has been dismissed. If it has not and she shows up but you don't, she will win by default.
Glad you are able to put this behind you! |

I agree, save the texts just in case. Hope this is a done deal for you! |

Unless you hear it directly from the court, it is NOT dismissed. Definitely go or check for yourself. |

That was my thought exactly! You better make dang sure it's been dismissed! Why would she be the one to tell you that? Sounds like an easy attempt to set you up to me? |

     Location: In a happy place | Like everyone said you need to personally check with the court yourself. She could be scamming you into not appearing in court. And please keep the text messages. What a piece of work! Thank you for posting. I was just wondering yesterday what was happening with you. |

| I guess I should be more clear. We DID actually appear in court and went through the whole ordeal on Wednesday this week. Yesterday (Friday) afternoon she called the courthouse because she wanted to know what the verdict was I guess since the judge said he would have a decision at the end of the day and we would be notified of his decision by a letter in the mail.
Since we didn't have a counter claim, I'm assuming "dismissed" is just a term for we won, and she didn't have a leg to stand on.
Her texts weren't threatening, but certainly rubbed me the wrong way. She was continuing to tell me the horse isn't safe and she didn't ruin her. . . Just continuing to keep running in circles. I absolutely will not respond or be in contact with her. What's done is done and she can deal with the mess she created. |
