My trials and travails with litigious former employee.

:dancer: congrats, Eric! I think I would have been at a loss of what to do. I bet this is a huge weight lifted off your shoulders.
 
Thanks, Heather. It is a HUGE weight off my shoulders. That was placed there on June 1st, 2009.

I just hope he won't cook anything else up.
 
CONGRATULATIONS!

I am SO, SO happy for you! I have been SO disgusted by the litigious bent we seem to have in this country (and I hear many other countries seem to be trying to catch up to us!) these days. I am REALLY happy to hear that justice prevailed EVENTUALLY, even though it caused you a ridiculous amount to stress to get to this point.

I hope that you NEVER have to go through something like this again!
 
WHOOOO HOOOO!!!! Eric, while I was working (when I shouldn't have been), I was thinking, "I wonder how Eric's doing?". LOL. Glad this "LOAD" is finally done away with, my friend.

"This one's for you, kid." :)
 
Thank you Kathy. It just makes me wonder how many people he has scared into not showing up, or bullied into submission.
And I was able to bring up the fact that part of my counter complaint was that the litigation was frivolous, and he had a history of many many such cases on the books. The judge seemed not surprised.

Thanks a million, Fred!!!
 
I had a good feeling this morning that the day's outcome would affirm your triumphant end to this fiasco. You can be my lawyer any day! :spinner:
 
Congratulations man :)
Let this little fiasco remind you next time(hopefully there shan't be none) with what you can easily handle and walk out pretty much unscathed-even if slightly stressed :santa:

Oren you make an excellent point. The first one I got out of this is 'don't be a mean and vindictive person'....and pick on somebody your own size. In other words, I would hate to think that I had victimized another person in life, that really did not have the language or wherewithall to defend themselves.
And the latter is what I believe this guy has a repetitive habit of doing. I was perhaps one of a very few exceptions.
 
Excellent news Eric! So so happy for you! I know how stressed out this whole thing was making you so I am glad it is finally over and done with and now you can move on!!

Thanks, Katie. I was having difficulty focusing on really enjoying my free time. I could submerge myself in work...but not loose myself in a project like I really like to do from time to time.
 
Eric,

I am glad for you. I am sorry I was not around to help.

The day is not over. Time to make some changes, so that this is less likely to ever happen again.
 
That's great Eric! I couldn't see it happening any other way but you never know. Been driving me nuts waiting to get online tonight, I couldn't help thinking about this all day.
Cool, now I can go to sleep.
Freakin' yay! :)

Thank you Lucillle. I think. I always wonder precisely what layer/level you are speaking from. And that does not bother me, I love multilayered people who make me ponder and wonder.
But you know, I have racked my brain trying to figure out what I might have done differently (in 2005). Off and on over the four interim years. I would say I have, generally, definitely changed for the better.

Alan you are such a deep guy, and such a nice guy. I know your family surely knows and basks in this,...and I am glad to be privy to some small part. Thanks.
 
Thats wonderful news Eric! I'm SO happy it all went well. I just wish you hadn't had to go through all the stress this has caused you over these past several weeks.

I was speaking of perhaps having immediate legal/business advice available to perhaps nip any future events like this in the bud.
Could you have done anything different in this case? Perhaps not, as this guy seems to have had a track record for hassling others in ways that were just inside the law.
While there are plenty of stories of justice achieved, the law and its processes are far from perfect, and there are too many stories of the system being used to inflict miseries.
You are just too nice a guy to have to suffer like this ever again.
