i would have asked those lawyers to go ahead & attach a check to the letter to cover your time & expenses in dealing with their mistake & see the look on their faces.

Well, I am glad it all worked out well. I knew no attorney on your part would be needed.

I am happy for you. the legal system is not to be feared. Lawyers want you to be scared of it so you will hire them. They do nothing for you that you can not do for yourself. Sometimes you need them because they study all the laws and may know where to look in the law books to find you an out, or some precedence you need to mitigate your case, or some procedure you may not be aware of.

All these schmucks put their pants on the same way everyone else does. Use common sense and tact and you can do almost everything for yourself that a lawyer can do for you at huge costs.

Anyway, this is awesome news!

It was actually entertaining! The hardest part for me was finding a parking spot in Downtown Baltimore during rush hour!

The judge seemed irritated by the fact that I had to be there.

He was irritated that three of the lawyers present were unprepared.

The judge seemed irritated that one of the lawyers mistaked him for a court appointed mediator, that was kind of funny!

The fourth lawyer present was the oldest in the bunch and obviously the most experienced, was prepared, and the only one not suing me, and he made that perfectly clear on more than one occasion.

The judge was irritated by the fact that the fifth lawyer, the one that actually called for this conference didn't show up.
Funny part about this is this lawyer's office is like 3 blocks from the court house, but yet we find out that he drove out of the city to the wrong court house in the county. Unbelievable!! (I was a little concerned about the absent lawyer not dismissing me, but the judge assured me that he would take care of it when he did show. I'm pretty sure he was in for a reaming!)

So the only thing resolved in their case is the fact that I didn't belong in it, and the judge seeming happy with my presentation (Documentation, ect.) was just a bonus!
