[quote=Anonymous][quote]Here's the thing... in this country, no one goes "to court to prove (their) innocence". Burden of proof is on the accuser. What she is doing with the court case is moving that burden back to them... which is not a thing you are likely to do if you are guilty.[/quote]

Eh, I can think of situations where someone who is guilty might choose to do exactly this in hopes that the organization wouldn’t want to be bothered with going to court and might even be willing to make a settlement with the plaintiffs to make them go away. Being willing to go to court is not proof of either guilt or innocence.

And this is not a court case, not a criminal matter. It is a private business matter between the buyer of a service and the provider of that service. There was a contract and each party has to follow certain rules. In this situation, one party is saying that they have evidence that the other party did not follow the rules laid down in the contact and is asking for evidence that the buyer actually did follow the rules. That’s all. No criminal sanctions involved.
