Brotherskeeper 828 Report post Posted April 10, 2018 I believe Fist usually advises, " patience, young grasshopper," to see what the other side does. He has suggestions for delaying the immediate payment of the full $250 if you don't qualify as indigent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fisthardcheese 1,379 Report post Posted April 10, 2018 This is why I hate thread jumping. I don't remember and will not spend time searching to find your other cases, so I have no idea what your card agreement says regarding arbitration costs or if you had an MTC granted in court. I would advise paying the $250 unless you are in CA or unless your only income is social security or similar. You can ask JAMS if you can make payments if it is easier for you to break it up and pay, say $125 now and $125 in 30 days. They have worked with consumer like this in the past. However, with a pending court case I would not want to delay too much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeB35 83 Report post Posted April 10, 2018 I only switched threads because this is the proper place for it now, and I did attach the arbitration section in a PDF file a few posts above to make the transition easier for people coming here. Thank you for your time and response. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeB35 83 Report post Posted April 12, 2018 Well, got a phone call today. I couldn't answer it because I was working, however I had a voice mail. It was the Plaintiffs lawyer asking me to call him back. So i call back after i get off work, he answers and I say "Hello *** its *** returning your phone call." Oh well I wasn't expecting a phone call back as nobody ever calls back. I laughed and said well here I am. He then says so, I talked to my client yesterday and they are willing to drop the case with a mutual dismissal with prejudice. I said sounds good! So now I need to get in contact with JAMS and drop the case once I get all the paper work in order. Couldn't have done it without all of your help!!! @fisthardcheese@Brotherskeeper@debtzapper@BackFromTheDebt@nobk4me@Goody_Ouchless@Xerxes@BV80 4 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goody_Ouchless 475 Report post Posted April 12, 2018 I wonder if this answers the age old of question of whether "they" read these sites. I would have to think the answer is "no," as they still try to contest MTCs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seadragon 840 Report post Posted April 13, 2018 Just rtemember don't dismiss the JAMS claim until you have the dismissal signed by the plaintiffs officer- manager in hand. If you dismiss before that they could say that you dismissed JAAMS during negotiations to the courts jurisdiction. For the naysayers this has happened in the past. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes sir, I didnt plan on withdrawing until I had the correct paperwork in order. This is the one scenario that was popping out at me in the back of my mind.
