What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida.
I was dating this man and he told me his internet based company would make a lot of money but he was having trouble staying afloat at the present. So I gave him $10,000 and he gave me an investment contract. Then he asked for more so I gave him $15,000 more but found out that he sent $25,000 to his xwife for back child support. He said this just came up and that he had to do this to stay out of jail although he hadn't paid child support for about 7yrs. He said our contract should still be good because he plans on being successful anyway. I also found out that he has borrowed the same amount from 4 different people. He is so far in debt he'll never catch up. However, I learned that a man offered him somewhere around $30,000 but he rejected offer because this man wanted a greater percentage of the company than he was willing to give.
My question is this... can I take him to court and make him accept whatever terms this other man wanted so he could pay me back?
Thank you for you time in advance.
