George1965: Congratulations on your recent victory! You gave me hope!
We filled WOM around the same time (Mine is March 7th). I served my US attorney on March 10th, and sent all other letters via certified mail on March 11th. My defendents have up to May 10th to respond to the case. But so far, no progress. I have two questions for you and any other people on the board, and hope you don't mind sharing:
(1) response of US attorney, or lack of. I called three times to the attorney who was assigned to my case, but she never picked up the phone (always answer machine), and never returned my call. Is this typical? What can I do to get her attention? It seems to me that the attorney I have is a tough one. Should I be concerned that she might make my case worse?
(2) I use the same letter format as you posted here (originally Gegemon's), in which I asked for "jury" if the case has to go on trial. I have not seen any cases go through trial from this board, but am preparing if worse things happen what I should do. Do you think having "jury" would make the the process more favorable to me and why or it really does not matter?
I will update my case progress once I hear. Meanwhile, I would really appreciate any tips from your guys on how if I should do something at this point.
