THERE IS THIS DOCUMENT THAT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME CALLED THE U.S. CONSTITUTION. I AM AN AVID SUPPORTER OF THIS DOCUMENT AND IT DOES NOT PERMIT ANYONE FROM BEING DENIED THE RIGHT TO EARN A LIVING.
THEREFORE, IF THERE IS A JUDGMENT AGAINST A TRUCK DRIVER FOR HIS CABLE BILL CAN THAT STOP HIM FROM DRIVING HIS TRUCK? IF IT COULD THEN HOW COULD HE EVER PAY THE CAABLE BILL. CAN CHILD SUPPORT OR FEDERAL TAXES LEVY ON YOUR INCOME---YES BUT THE PERCENTAGE IS REGULATED. THEREFORE, THERE IS PROTECTION BUILT INTO THIS FOR THE HONEST GUY HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME PAYING HIS BILLS IN THE INDUSTRY ITSELF.
IF AN HONEST TRAINER OWES FOR FEED, SHOEING OR VET---THEN THEY CAN GO TO THE JUDGES BUT THIS COULD BE CHALLENGED IN FEDERAL COURT SINCE HOW CAN THIS HONEST TRAINER PAY HIS BILLS IF HE CANNOT WORK IN THE ONLY INDUSTRY HE KNOWS? THINK ABOUT THE 29 OR SO INDICTED---DID THEY TAKE MONEY AWAY FROM MANY HONEST HORSEMEN TRYING TO EARN AN HONEST LIVING? DID EVERYONE OF THESE FOLKS AND VETS TAKE MONEY OUT OF THE FOLKS TRYING TO BE HONEST AND WORK HARD AND CLEAN? I THINK SO.
A OWNER WITH DEEP POCKETS COULD IN FACT PURSUE ABOVE IN FEDERAL COURT AND EVENTUALLY WIN AS HE COULD IN FACT WEAR OUT THE CROOKED FOLKS AS THEY COULD NOT AFFORD THE FEES TO FIGHT SUCH A CASE.
I NEVER LOOKED AT THE CASE LAW BUT TRUTHFULLY THIS INDUSTRY MARCHES TO THE BEAT OF ITS OWN DRUMMER. I PERSONALLY BELEIVE THE BEAT HAS CHANGED.
HOW MANY OF YOU BOUGHT HORSES FROM THESE INDICTED TRAINERS AND HAVE THEM GO BACKWARDS AND BECOME VALUELESS? MANY. THE PURSES AND WINS BY THESE INDICTED FOLKS HAVE DESTROYED THE SMALL STALE AS THEY CANNOT COMPETE WITH THE STABLES THAT BECAME LARGE AS OWNERS FLOCKED TO THESE FOLKS THAT WON AT A HIGH PERCENTAGE ILLEGALLY!
I KNOW OF ONE CASE THAT THE TRAINER OVER CHARGED AN OWNER IN THE MILLIONS AND INFLATED HORSE PURCHASES---THIS OWNER SUED IN COURT AND WON A JUDGMENT IN 6 FIGURES PLUS AGAINST THE TRAINER AND TRUTHFULLY THAT MAY BE A SPECIAL SITUATION AS THE THEFT OCCURRED IN THE INDUSTRY.
EITHER WAY, THE CONSTITUTION PROTECTS MANY OF US FROM THIS TYPE OF ABUSE!
