What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
On july 12, 2007 my son received surgery from a medical provider outside of our insurance network. my insurance company sent me the check (in my name) and my wife deposited it. for reasons outside of my control, a portion of that money was spent to where i could not pay the total amount. the medical provider refused partial payment and also any attempt to come up with a payment plan alternative. i did not enter into a contract with my insurance provider to expressly use this money for the services provided, yet the medical provider filed with the district attorney a suit of theft by conversion. being that i did not receice this money from the provider, can they alledge theft by conversion? and being that my wife signed all contracts regarding payment and medical care, can they legally pursue me? i am ordered to appear to establish propable cause soon. being that it was not my intention to shaft these people out of thier money, can propable cause be shown?
thank you for any help.
