the judge will either throw him out of court or put all your fees and losses onto his tab for wasting the courts time ..
I'd even bet they will make an example out of him ..

its gonna bite him in the ass if hes actually serious about this ..
make sure if you do make it to court to get the officer that was present , called into court on your behalf ..

very good advice.... also make sure you get a copy of the final report where the officer states that he refused his property. He wont have a leg to stand on.

Thanks for this. He actually caused the officers such a problem and gave them such a hard time they said if he even thinks of going to court to not hesitate to call them as witnesses, so I plan to.
I also managed to re-download the program to get text logs from the iPhone to the computer, so I have it in writing where he admits he hasn't been doing his end of the deal.
Hopefully these shenanigans will be over with soon.

Just wanted to update, for those of you that are still following. I received a court summons today and he is trying to sue for nearly $1500.00.
He, of course, fabricated a receipt and is demanding money for the care of my snakes, my corner of a table at Daytona, and emotional damages because I demanded he return my snakes to me because he was not holding his end of the agreement.
....unbelievable.

Only because that is the maximum he can sue you for in small claims court. That doesn't mean that's what he would be awarded if he would win.

Excellent. Play his game. Now you call the IRS and tell them how he sells you feeders to the tune of $1,500.00 every few months and how he stated many times he prefers you pay him in cash so that he doesn't have to report that income and pay taxes.

Do that and just see if he has time for court while the IRS is crawling up his ass sideways.

Just wanted to update. Dartanya supplied the incorrect mailing address on all records to everyone involved, the court system as well as myself. All attempts at contact have been returned in the mail for incorrect address, even though it's to the address he supplied.

He showed up at court on Monday and demanded that I be incarcerated and held in contempt as well as a default judgement in his favor to the tune of some $1500.00 because I did not hand over my personal information to him, though I did mail an objection to both he and the court for his ludicrous demands, it was just never recieved because he lied to the courts about his mailing address.

Absolutely unbelievable drama, and I sincerely hope that everyone stays away from any dealings with him in the future.

damn, i just read this whole thread. this guy sounds like a loser. if you're supposedly a reputable breeder who sells at large conventions and have a snake that not many have possessing special genes, then why would you even need to do a breeding loan on affordable female snakes? (i noticed a mojave in there, though i didn't notice what else) you'd think they'd already be in the collection, especially if you've got some special gene carrier. it's good you got your snakes back.

So I'm guessing his whole claim was thrown out? Did the judge at least give him a couple of smacks upside the head with the gavel for being such an idiot and wasting the courts time? LOL.

Sorry to hear about your problems. Breeder loans are like trades. Someone always gets screwed and it is usually the person bringing the quality to the table.

As far as the show issue being discussed, I don't care what show it is, to believe that all the animals on the table are bread by the exhibitor is at best stupid. There are booths at shows were people are fronting for someone else and didn't breed a single animal on the table. One of the best reasons for buying top quality animals for breeding from the breeder, and leave expos for the pet buyers.

Good luck with your problem. Being new, learn fast from this little incident.

The pre-trial hearing is in December.
