I am having a hard time finding a lawyer. I know there are ones out there that will take my case. I tried contacting the Police but they told me there is nothing they can do. I figure between parts he took and whatever has been taken out of the car and the cost to put it all back together I am out about $8,000.00. Harwood gave me a rotating assembly that I was owed but am still missing a set of heads,cam,and intake. that I know of. I am the guy with the black ws6 I am sure alot of your guys have seen up there. I will be going to court. the nice thing is being active duty Marine Corps I think I can get base legal to take my case. Hopefully someday we all get what we deserve and so does harwood. I would love to take him to work in Iraq or Afghanistan with me for 6months

He wouldn't last two days. Just fyi

adam0321 · 03-30-2011, 04:48 PM

my point exactly. It amazes me that some people can do what he has done and sleep. I am glad this happened to me after I have matured a bit. & years ago as a new grunt just back from Iraq if he pulled this I would be in jail. I am glad I now have the maturity and piece of mind to take him to court instead of handling it like I wish I could

Even if you win your court case against Harwood and Get a judgment nothing will be done if he doesn't pay. I was awarded a judgment against a body shop in 1995 foe over $4000.00 and the guy never paid a penny back. Called the courts many times and was told he had nothing in his name so nothing could be done by the courts. Good luck on your court battle.

and there lies the problem as an e-5 I dont have alot of money to throw at lawyers. It seems there has to be somehting that can be done...I refuse to believe our legal system is that flawed that it will not be able to punish him

In my opinion, the Calhoun County Sheriff's office has sufficient evidence to prosecute. It would be real nice to know why they refuse to do so.

adam0321 · 03-30-2011, 06:50 PM

I have called the sherrifs dept. they refused me to, said it was a civil matter since technicaly he did not steal the parts since I gave them to him. they say it is a civil matter.

Rich I want to appolagize again for how I first approached this on the forum. I guess I have not completely lost my hot head attitude.

In my opinion, they have a very interesting way of interpreting the law. I guess if I go to a new car dealer in Calhoun County and they hand me the keys of a new car for a test drive, then I am not breaking any law if I just take the car home with me and claim it is now mine..... After all they GAVE me the keys to the car, did they not?

On the reverse side of this perspective, be careful taking your car to any shop within that county, as your "giving" them your car for repair obviously negates your LEGAL right of ownership.
