Circa March 2004 I loaned $500.00 cash to a friend to go to Mexico; in the months that followed I was paid $300.00 back. On December 7, 2004 I withdrew $200.00 from my checking account and took a $400.00 cash advance (later paying a cash advance fee of $12.00 as well as 24.49% interest) at Bank of America, where my friend banks, and she deposited this exact amount into her checking account moments later. On January 10, 2005 I wrote out a check in her name for $2,000.00 noting in the memo area that it was a "loan." Last, I purchased an iPod for her son at Target using my debit card on March 18, 2005 for the amount of $216.87 which she indicated she would pay me for. Recently I asked her to begin paying me $500.00 per month, but she refused. Furthermore, she has broken off all communication in an attempt to avoid paying this debt. The person in question is a stripper who deposits tens of thousands of dollars in tips into her account annually, none of which is reported to the government as income. A check of her bank account (whose number I can provide) will prove this. Her employer issues a FALSE W-2 which allows her to receive financial aid and, perhaps, health care as well. Do I have a case? If a lawyer represents me, and I win the case, can she be sued for his fees as well? Last, can a lawyer subpoena copies of her checking account statements and tax returns. In addition to the above, I also bought her a coat for $129.95 and perfume for around $100.00. She told me that if I bought a leather coat for her, she would buy one for me. And if I bought her perfume she would buy me cologne. She never did. Can I sue for this additional $229.95? |
