Unless you paid a fortune, that's probably true in terms of attorney's fees. OTOH, you could try taking the minority owner your contract is with to small claims court for the remainder of the prepaid amount. Before you file, though, make sure you can document several attempts to contact the guy, and all other contacts related to the situation (the other hunters, other owners, etc.) to show that you have attempted to find a resolution to the issue before filing, and give him at least a month to respond after receipt of a certified letter. I'm not sure what you do if you can't track down the problem owner, but if you can't find out from one of the lawyers here, the JP court clerk can probably tell you.grandpatim wrote:He did say it would cost more to go after the person who leased it out to us than what we lost on our lease payments.
If nothing else, any judgment against the guy works in favor of the others who stand to lose more.
