2019/9/10: $30,001 offer of judgment | 2019 Discovery -- the Midland & Bursey Responses and our discovery disputes | Litigation Forum

My 9/10/19 response:

Hello all,

I am declining your offer of judgment.   I'm fully aware that you are merely wasting more of my time.

You forgot what I wrote in the joint status report?

Plaintiff’s Report Regarding Settlement Discussions

At the settlement conference in Phoenix I was the only party to show up – despite the Court’s order requiring all parties to attend.  The magistrate judge allowed the Defendants to attend by telephone.   I wasted so much time and money -- NEVER AGAIN will I agree to a settlement conference.  

On several occasions the Defendants insulted me with their ridiculously low settlement offers.

Money is nice, but changing laws and regulations for ALL consumers who are abused by debt buyers and their attorneys is much more important to me.  I rather take nothing and attempt to make a difference for all by publicizing the Defendants’ vile litigation techniques.  A pro se consumer litigant taking this case to the jury, after 8 years of litigation, prevailing in justice court and overturning two federal judges on appeal, should get the NATIONAL attention this case deserves and result in consumer law changes!

However, if the Defendants should wish to settle, I will accept $250,000 to me and $750,000 to a foundation to bring a community center and healthcare to my rural community.  This offer expires on 5/15/19.
--------------------------------------------

Excellent move though, along with your ludicrous attempt to force me settle, you definitely slowed me down. Anything to distract me!

Please cooperate with the filing of the joint discovery motion.  

Thank you!

Christine Baker
