Worst that can happen is a non-response or a NOPE CAN't HELP...then YOU can ask, any ideas of WHO?WHAT TYPE of expert I need? go from there...Lots of phone time, but freebies are just that, free...
DO NOT EVER, get into that mental trap that 'now that I'm sick, I can't do anything right! You are sick, you have to pace yourself, but, you can organize yourself better [even with colors?] than you ever did in a stressful professional life 'cause you can blot out many working distractions and CONCENTRATE on that which is necessary....

COG's I love it, I never heard that before.
Yes, for sure. It's the key words. It's like a secret language. "set aside" is like that. So is the standard of review language: "abuse of discretion" and "error" but it has to be a specific kind of error... I have it in my appeal, I just forget.
Because it's an appeal, I think it probably runs about the same throughout the states because I remember when I read about "standards of review" the standards were for all the states.
Thank you Dahlek, I appreciate the vote of confidence.
If I knew what "key" words to use, I might be able to find something on the internet.
But so far I haven't found the key words... beside "set aside"... damages? maybe? but then... do I have to say what they consist of? I know in bankruptcy court when I did violation of stay things, I had to identify specific damages... actual damages. But I know that in some other circumstances that to mention specific things sort of invalidates it...
