[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The college will never make good on this judgment. They just won't.

What's the bakery going to do about it? Sue them, again?

They'll never see more than a token fraction of of that judgement. The college will stiff them. [/quote]

You don't understand how this stuff works.[/quote]

Actually, I do.

I was awarded a judgment against a small publisher of technical publications over copyright violations and subsequent defamation. It was not a huge sum of money, but it was sizable to me, representing about a years' income.

This was in 2002.

I received $2,700. About 2% of the total judgment. That's it. That was 17 years ago.

There is literally no enforcement means available to me to collect it. Attorneys aren't interested, it's too small for their time. Collection agencies aren't interested because it's too much trouble.

So they got away with it. And Oberlin will, too.

You go at a $135k judgment and the attorney who assisted you wasn’t willing file the paperwork to enforce the judgment?  There’s something a little off in your story.

As for this one, go ahead and read, you’ll see where this is different.[/quote]
