I called the police again last night to come serve the papers to the 350 man. He was out on "his" new property with his mother. The police came zooming up with all lights off, apparently attempting to get to him before he could get into the house. But, he was with his mother, what was he going to do? At this point, however, they had already walked back to the house - the police approached the house and out comes 350 man.
They start talking to him, hand him the papers, he reads 2 sentences of it (like scanning it) and then starts laughing. I have no idea what he was filling those police officer's ears with - and I couldn't care less. It went on for about 10 minutes - him yapping away. I would venture to guess that he had to put up an act in front of his mother, who is paying this "man's" way through life.
The police came back, handed me the rest of the paperwork that was left over -for me to show to police if something happens again, and that was that. I had no intention of holding police up to "find out" what he was telling them. Whatever it was, undoubtedly much of it was fictitious.
If I were going to guess about all of this, which I am going to now, he is going to file to contest this in court. He may even show up with a lawyer since mommy is rich and apparently doesn't care how much money he shells out for his boy (case in point: she buys him a brand new house when he gets out of prison). I don't really care, either. It's Justice Court, not Superior court, procedural rules aren't as big of an issue in the lower court. Which is the only thing that I would have a problem with since I am not a lawyer and don't know all procedural rules.
He may also try to get an injunction against me. He has already threatened legal action after his cat disappeared, though what legal action remains to be seen. If, somehow, he could prove that I caught and removed his cat and that I did it "illegally", the worst that could happen is to be forced to pay the replacement cost of the cat. However, that will never happen. At least from what I have read it won't, but who knows what a judge may find in the end. I do expect some sort of trouble from this, whatever the case, but after yesterday, enough was enough.
Undoubtedly, the man is fuming now. Attempting to invent ways to figure out how to pay me back.
Anyway, it's Friday. Another 2 days off for the weekend en-queue. I just remembered that mom told me she is going up there and leaving - tomorrow. Well, if she's leaving tomorrow, no sense in going up there to visit. She is shutting down the camp for the winter. You have to winterize those trailers or you will undoubtedly come back to a mess the next spring, finding busted pipes in it for one thing. I don't know how they do it nowadays, it used to be you would hook up a line to the feed and blast air through the entire system, forcing all water out of it. Then you would dump some antifreeze type of junk in there and that would take care of it.
My search for a trailer continues. There is one that I may go take a look at today - but then again - I may just come home and decide to work on the yard instead.
Whatever the case........
g'day.
