Ex-partner Suit

[Barr]

I'm being charged by my ex boyfriend of 5 years for $3,000. In February, I bought a bike (for my ex) that he voluntarily returned to me (damaged with 3,000miles) when he split up with me 8 weeks later. Whenever we signed the papers, I put the bike, $7,500 (using the VIN number, TT&M, etc.) under my name, and he put the rest of the balance $2,800 (components, equipment, etc.) on his charge card. He's suing me for $3,000,what he calls the "down payment" about the bike, plus his court charges. (there clearly was no "down payment") they certainly were two separate purchases. He wasn't a co-buyer or perhaps a co-signer in the purchase of the cycle; he currently has got the components that he bought and I've the bike.We recently visited court and I told the judge the reality, what was written down. I bought the bike, and my ex bought the components. Effectively, the judge stated that he was likely to need certainly to subpoena the man who offered us the bicycle (who's friends with my ex) to prove that there was a really "undocumented" deposit that my ex statements that there was. If it was "undocumented" from the dealer and the salesman goes in addition to this tale, how am I accountable for paying that money-back to him if I understood nothing about it? And might the judge accuse me of perjury since I told him precisely what I knew about this condition, but in accordance with my ex, it's a lie.*We never existed together, therefore we are not categorized underneath the "common-law" regulations*I am considering a countersuit for your monthy payments on the bike that I've been producing (although do not get any use out-of this bike), and likewise the items he ruined on the bike when he'd it.

I've placed links for your earlier articles (under another title) 3398 and 3401 just in case readers wish to evaluate the earlier concerns and answers.http://community.lawyers.com/messageboards/message.asp?channelId=21&subId=&mId=858393&mbId=70&threadId=3398http://community.lawyers.com/messageboards/message.asp?channelId=21&subId=&mId=858654&mbId=70&threadId=3401"Properly, the judge stated that he was likely to need certainly to subpoena the man who offered us the bicycle (who's friends with my ex) to prove that there was a really "undocumented" deposit that my ex statements that there was.

Nevertheless, your benefit is that your ex's friend works for your dealership and it's impossible that the judge may think that a dealership didn't maintain paperwork on the deposit, particularly if you make certain you place that out."And might the judge accuse me of perjury since I told him precisely what I knew relating to this condition, but in accordance with my ex, it's a lie."Possibly not. Everyone is based on court, or, at-least, provides their very own notion of the reality. If judges charged everybody with perjury there'd be thousands more individuals in prison than there currently are, including plenty of lawyers.You're simply likely to have to play this out and see what happens."*I am considering a countersuit for your monthy payments on the bike that I've been producing (although do not get any use out of this bike), and likewise the items he ruined on the bike when he'd it."the full time to file a countersuit is usually whenever you get sued within the first-place. That means your countersuit is noticed once the original match is heard.You probably should have included all that inside your solution that needed to be submitted within 10 days to be served the original suit.I haven't been in a position to discover any Texas methods regarding a countersuit in small-claims court as of this late date.You may have to file another lawsuit and request the court to deal with them together after your ex lover is served. I do not understand. I am only guessing.But whatsoever you do, you'd better get it done easily. The longer you wait the not as likely you'd be permitted to. And if you wait till following this situation is completed your ex might possibly have something you declare later dismissed as having been already adjudicated.

Thanks for that inclusion "insurer jack." Nevertheless, I will observe how "tx woman 86" has further concerns which were not responded in her prior questions.I would suppose the judge will have the ability to look for the "undocumented" details to become unacceptable, which means you should not bother about your crime of perjury.If you pursue the counterclaim, I'd recommend seeking the help of an attorney who is able to assist you to discover the credibility of one's match, in the place of you happening with it-yourself. But I absolutely believe you need to countersue him.
