Interesting mix of feedback!

I am still on the fence, though I certainly don't really mind where or by whom my case is heard - I have just had such a full plate lately between this situation, an illness in my family and one of my daughters getting married next month that I am feeling completely allergic to drama right now!

While I want to believe I will prevail in my case, I am too old to believe that the good guy with the good intentions always prevails in court. I know better, first hand. If I did lose and had to pay the $5,000 judgement, it would completely ruin me financially. I support six people. The assurance that I would not have to pay no matter what the outcome is tempting - but with everything else I have going on, I am not crazy about the idea of having to make the trek to L.A. to handle all this. I am not about doing things just for the money's sake.

I am still mulling it over and have given myself until the end of the weekend to make a decision.

Thanks for your input!!! You guys serve as part of my sanity right now!
