Chapter 15 - A Retaliatory Civil Lawsuit Arrives At Their Doorstep
Two weeks of absolute peace passed before the illusion of permanent tranquility was punctured by the thud of a delivery envelope.
Ethan picked up a thick manila envelope resting on the front porch mat, noticing it lacked any domestic return address.
He sliced open the top, pulling out a retaliatory civil lawsuit filed by Victor Vance on behalf of an incarcerated Eleanor.
She was suing Ethan for fifty million dollars in fabricated damages, claiming elder abuse and wrongful eviction.
“She’s still trying to fight back from behind bars using her shady legal associates,” Ethan muttered angrily, tossing the papers onto the desk.
“Don’t worry, Ethan. Our legal standing is completely airtight; Judge Harrison will throw this garbage lawsuit out in five minutes,” Marcus assured him.
They filed an immediate motion for summary judgment, exposing Eleanor’s ongoing pattern of frivolous litigation and fraud.
