I was saying the same as you - maybe it's been misinterpreted. I'm saying the OP hasn't got a leg to stand on as she's said numerous times they can pay back a nominal amount when they can afford it. There ain't no way any judge/court will rule in her favour when she's been so flexible (prob in writing).unholyangel wrote: »Just aware that courts aren't there to enforce whats fair, only whats legal.2024 wins: *must start comping again!*0 -

Ah, I thought you were saying it sounded like I had said on numerous occasions "pay what you can" - was just responding to that saying I'm just cautious as I know the issues you can face trying to enforce it via courts.

Seriously tho. Maybe cut your losses and block her and dont speak to her again. Or write a letter as someone else suggested, saying you want the money back within 14 days or you will pursue her through the small claims courts. That might kick start a payment.0 -
