DHECC - Best Comment Bump in AZ History: October 16, 2014

Do I have an attorney in the case?

The Court has appointed Stephen J. Herman (Lead Class Counsel), James Parkerson Roy (Lead Class Counsel), Brian H. Barr, Jeffery A. Breit, Elizabeth J. Cabraser, Philip F. Cossich, Jr., Robert T. Cunningham, Alphonso Michael Espy, Calvin C. Fayard, Jr., Robin L. Greenwald, Ervin A. Gonzalez, Rhon E. Jones, Matthew E. Lundy, Michael C. Palmintier, Joseph F. Rice, Paul M. Sterbcow, Scott Summy, Mikal C. Watts and Conrad S. P. Williams as “Economic & Property Damages Class Counsel” to represent the E&PD Class Members. You will not be charged for these lawyers. If you want to be represented by your own lawyer in this case, you may hire one at your own expense.The Court has appointed Stephen J.

I believe this was the same flaw in GCCF but part of the design to have pro se submit documents believing that the intent was the court vendors worked in their best interest.

Unfortunately they have been misled, individuals are fighting trained well funded claim killers.

Just look at the appeals process if you were one of the lucky to receive an offer. BP had an appeal started well before the offer was released " confidentiality order instructed BP to destroy all prepared doc's & records ".

As an accountant that handles both attorney and pro se claims, I have not noticed even the slightest difference in how they are handled and appealed. They are equally tough on both and BP appeals both in the same way. Just my experience.

So are you agreeing that an accountant of individual is out matched if and when BP files an appeal on an offer?

Ask yourself how many appeals were lost or not responded to in a timely manor.

In law, an appeal is a process for requesting a formal change to an official decision. Very broadly speaking there are appeals on the record and de novo appeals. In de novo appeals, a new decision maker re-hears the case without any reference to the prior decision maker. In appeals on the record, the decision of the prior decision maker is challenged by arguing that he or she misapplied the law, came to an incorrect factual finding, acted in excess of his jurisdiction, abused his powers, was biased, considered evidence which he should not have considered, or failed to consider evidence that he should have considered.
