Some of you know about the night mare I went thru with the peace of crap upholstery shop that screwed up my carpeting by simply gluing new carpet on top of the old and trying to pass that off as "replacing the carpet", I had to pay out even more to get another shop to rip it all out and replace it properly.. So today I had court and we won in big way. I sued him under the "consumer protection act", the judge awarded me 3X's the damages and all court and attorney cost. He should have settled with me win I first confronted him about the problems.

I had only sued him for the repair cost I had to pay to get the car fixed, but the judge said that under the consumer protection act it is automatically 3X's the damages. This has drug out for 9 mos. but right finally won out. This has ended up costing this guy more than I paid him for the entire job. Might want to remember if a disreputable vendor screws you over hit him under this act and you will do well.....

Congrats and my admiration for going after the slug through the courts and busting his chops.  Spend your new found "fortune" on some go fast goodies, you earned it.

Congrats Allan... it's reassuring to see the legal system used for the right reason and in kind, it served you as it should. Thank you for sharing your adventure!
