Good for him...I hope he wins....

What is he hoping to get? Them to negotiate? That is all the contract was for.

Maybe he needs to get legal advice from Jim Bob Miller of McAlester.  [:O]

well if you would read instead of sitting there trying to sound smug you'd see they are seeking civil relief in excess of $10k.  It is an estoppel and BOC suit.  The combination of the two is particularly good because TDA can't argue that they breached contract to help him not incur any expenses.  That argument is extremely weak anyways because that would only hold merit if Novus had asked them to break contract because of costs.  Claiming they did that out of the goodness of their hearts is complete BS.



Medlock didn't have any details posted when he started the thread Mr Wizard.

never done a search on OSCN I take it.  Tough stuff there those search tools.



If you're a layman do you know how difficult one of those things is to read?  You almost have to put someone on retainer to dumb it down.

Some of us didn't get $100,000 to go that-there law school so we could understand them-there goins-on in our fine city.

Sounds like someone forget his warm milk tonight.  Go take a nap.

Gee...next time I'll take the extra time to write the obvious, rather than giving you the respect that you'll be able to see the same thing I'm seeing and draw your own conclusions.

I'll leave the drawing conclusions part up to the expert.

The suit should make it a lot harder for TDA to shovel the facts of the case under the rug and hide behind a cooperative media.

I hate to see it came to this but glad Will had the cajones to do it.

Did will get treated unfairly? Yes
Is a civil suit going to solve the problem? Probably not
Is the general public going to remember any of this 3 months from now? Probably not

RecycleMichael

I am not opposed to drawing conclusions...I have a full set of crayons.

The lawsuit says "Breach of Agreement - Contract".

But we know there was no contract.

What is the difference between an "agreement" and a "contract"?

Can you use the terms interchangably?

This may bring to light some things involving "A Public Trust".

"Is the general public going to remember any of this three months from now.? Probably not."

But I would almost guarantee this will give the "Trust" that hint of conspiracy we have come to expect from Tulsa.

sgrizzle

I heard a rumor that the trust was created to keep out the Steve Kitchell's and sell it to the Will Wilkins but since the trust doesn't own the land yet, they can't do anything.

If true he may burn that bridge before it's built.

waterboy

No, the public won't remember 3 months from now but any one on a public trust considering agreements with Novus...will remember.

RM, that is indeed the crux of the suit. Novus says the contract was breached, TDA says there was no contract. They'll end up settling for reimbursement of expenses.

...seems to be the overriding basis upon which local government operates around here.
