What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I plan to appeal a decision a magistrate awarded against myself last week, I sold an ATV and the buyer broke it the first day and decided to sue, for $ 1000.00 the asking price, he paid $ 900.00 in cash and $ 100.00 in the form of a check in which he put a stop payment. The magistrate ordered I pay $ 1000.00 plus $ 40.00 court fee's and take the ATV they broke back. I have over $ 1000.00 in receipts for parts for this ATV and it left my house in excellent condition. I have read the consumer protection laws and do not believe they apply to any of this, I am also a private party selling, not a "dealer". Do they have a leg to stand on and why was I ruled against when I have broken no laws, I do not feel I am liable for any of this and would just like to put this to rest in my appeal.
