Default Judgment against Freeman "Buck" Reed and Renee Reed


Buck and Renee Reed lived in my home at 515 South Hayley Court, Alpine UT from early August 2012 until the end of May 2013.  I have a default judgment against the Reeds for $6348.99 for non payment of rent.  I went through the process of having the Reeds evicted from my home.  Renee Reed has told me on multiple occasions that she is not going to pay the judgment. I am looking for a collection agency or an attorney that will help me collect the judgment from the Reeds. Please let me know if you are able to help me collect this judgment.
Currently, Renee Reed lives at 3467 Little Bessie, Park City, UT 84960.
I will be happy to give you her phone number and email, just email me at billhytek@Hotmail.com

If you have a judgment against the Reeds, feel free to send it to me and I will post it on this site.  If you have any factual evidence that can be backed up that you would like to share, feel free to send it to me and I will post it to this site.

Ladies: The Ex Is Not (Usually) Your Enemy written by my friend Liz Nielsen

Ladies: The Ex Is Not (Usually) Your Enemy
October 03, 2014

Fotolia_53291765_XS.jpg
Some lessons are learned the (very) hard way. Such is the story of my (now ex) husband, his ex-wife, and me.
When I first met Rob, he told me about his horrible ex-wife, “Tina.” She was crazy, jealous that he met me, didn’t want to work (though she did work fulltime), wanted all his money, was using the children just to get more child support, was a screamer and, well, I could go on and on. I felt so sorry for him and after we got married, I grew to really dislike Tina. After all, I believed everything Rob said about her and those first (strong) initial impressions took a long time to slowly wither away and die, but I digress.
Once Rob and I married, Tina became my mortal enemy. When Rob’s explosive personality began to appear (he hid this side of him completely when we were dating), he blamed it squarely on Tina. She taught him those communication skills. If it wasn’t for Tina, he would manage conflict better (sure, no doubt! I cannot believe I accepted that line of bullshit). When I discovered his alcoholism, Rob blamed that, too, on her. Tina was his trigger (always had been). If only he had never been married that horrible woman, I thought, Rob never had turned to alcohol to cope. Every time Rob and Tina went back to court, it was all her fault, she just wanted money and to punish him for moving on. Everything bad in our marriage was because of Tina, Tina, Tina.
A few years into our marriage, I had an epiphany: maybe everything Rob said about Tina was a lie. Or, maybe, just maybe, there was another side to this story. Maybe all this “it’s Tina’s fault” wasn’t exactly true. Instead of hating Tina, maybe I should feel sorry for her. Hmmm…
One day, Rob went on a rant about Tina. I cut him off. “That poor woman. Maybe she just did her best to cope with you. Wow, there’s a thought.” Rob looked at me with his glassy stare that meant he’d been out drinking again. And instead of more explosive screaming, he went silent.
Fast forward to the day I was undergoing all kinds of scary tests, which lead to my cancer diagnosis. I’ve written about it endlessly but in case you’ve missed it, I came home from the hospital and was in shock and frightened beyond belief. Rob came home just minutes later. Clearly he had been drinking. I was at the dining room table and told him that they thought I had cancer and I started crying. Rob got just inches from my face and started screaming at me so loudly that he was literally spitting on me. He accused me of being a fucking drama queen, lazy and just not wanting to go back to work. It was the last day we lived together. I called the police and that was that.
After calling Rob’s mother, and then my parents (who immediately started driving from their home in Salt Lake City to mine in San Diego so they could be with me at my diagnosis appointment four days later), I called… Tina. I am so grateful that she took my call and was willing to speak with me because we did not have a good relationship during my time with Rob, to put it nicely. I said, “He did this to you, didn’t he? The screaming, belittling, blaming. It’s not just me, is it?”
“No,” she said. That one word meant everything to me.
And since that phone call, she became one of my biggest allies and support when I needed it most. There were days during my horrid divorce process that I needed a gut check. When Rob blamed me for everything, like his alcoholism (“You’re my trigger!” he texted me one day as I was headed to my chemo appointment. “If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be an alcoholic."), I simply needed to text Tina and have her remind me that his alcoholism was a major reason for the destruction of their marriage, too. His alcoholism was hardly a new thing once he met me. When Rob sent me unbelievably disgusting, disturbing and heartless texts during my cancer battle (“You’re a lazy, lying thief. Go back to work!”), I needed to bounce it off with the only person who really knew my hell—Tina. She listened and commiserated as only someone who lived it, too, could do.
I feel such sorrow and disgust with myself that I ever got in the middle of the relationship between Rob and Tina. I failed to realize that every story has another side. Not every guy is going to be open and honest about a failed relationship. And, really, my job as the newbie in the whole scenario should have been to listen, observe, support my guy as best as possible, and then butt out beyond that. I’ve learned my lesson. Never again.
Here’s the deal: The ex-wife is not our enemy. She may be his enemy. What continues to happen between the two of them will, no doubt, have negative consequences within our homes and will impact our relationships. However, it goes with the territory and if it seems too much for you, then perhaps this guy isn’t the right one for you. Remember, she came before you and, likely, they have children together. There's lots of history and we cannot possible understand it. But unless this woman is boiling the family pet bunny, slashing your tires, or stalking you in the street and threatening to slit your throat, back off, be silent, and (dare I say) be polite. You should work towards being a neutralizing force between the two of them if it’s possible. If the ex-wife appears angry and unstable, perhaps there’s a reason for it. A little compassion and understanding of the unknown just might be in order.
Case in point… I met a guy, “John”, who had an affair during his marriage. He left his wife (as she begged and pleaded for him not to) and moved in with the girlfriend, “Alice.” Over the next eight months that John and Alice lived together, his wife went to their home and knocked on doors in the middle of the night, sent emails to the girlfriend accusing her of being a home wrecker and whore, and even showed up at a restaurant where they were eating to confront them. While this behavior is clearly not good, I can’t even fathom the pain and trauma wife was under. As a result, Alice wouldn’t marry John-- there was just too much baggage and drama. I give wife a big huge pass. John called her crazy and nuts; I call her traumatized.
So before we simply believe that the ex is just a freak-show, let’s acknowledge that a lot more just might be going on that we may never fully understand or appreciate. And, God forbid, should we ever find ourselves on the “outs” with our new sweetie, maybe that “freak-show” might become one of our biggest support systems. It could happen. It did for me.

Most bizarre letter ever written by an Attorney


Bizarre Letter from an attorney, one to another.


The following letter was written by one attorney to another which I came across and thought, this is the most bizarre letter ever written by an attorney. I have left out the names of the Attorneys for obvious reasons and I have also changed the identifying names of individuals and retail establishments so as not to identify them.  
I believe after you have read this letter that you too will say to yourself, WHAT?
__________________________________________________________
Attorney at Law
September, 2014 

Dear Mr. Peterson, 
I am in receipt of your two letters, dated August, 2014 and September, 2014. I also am still waiting for a copy of your client's 2013 tax return. Can you please send me a copy of that as soon as you receive it? Thanks. 
We also need to take the "diamond" ring from the safety deposit box you keep at the bank, and take it over to XYZ Jewelers and ask them to verify whether or not it is even a diamond and if it is, inquire as to whether it is the diamond that your client claims is the same one, that my client wore all during the marriage. I have done research on the issue and it is actually a very simple thing to determine. If it is not a fake or is a cheap knock off, it will be very easy for a competent expert at a diamond store to determine. Should be an interesting afternoon for us. It will be more fun than we have had together since the time in law school, when John Griffin sent out notes to all the women law students saying that the women students were taking the place of men at the law school and should quit on their own accord, but I digress.
As your client apparently found out, my client is not the famed "Jane Braine" and it was an act upon your client of a vengeful ex lover who apparently experienced some disappointment with your client's skills and was trying to let him know she is the one with the IQ. But in any case, my client does not have a secret identity as "Jane Braine." I will disclose that my favorite uncle used to call me "Janey Ligett" back in 1954. But, I have not thought of that for 60 years until I read the Jane Braine thing and remembered my sweet departed Uncle John. Of course I always thought of Uncle John on a daily basis, when I spent about 25 or 30 years following the Grateful Dead. Remember that one song called "Uncle John's Band?" I doubt you were ever a "Deadhead" but still you may remember the lyrics: 

"Uncle John’s Band"
Well the first days are the hardest days, don't you worry any more, 'Cause when life looks like Easy Street, there is danger at your door. Think this through with me, let me know your mind,Wo, oh, what I want to know, is are you kind? 
It's a buck dancer's choice my friend; better take my advice. You know all the rules by now and the fire from the ice. Will you come with me? Won't you come with me? Wo, oh, what I want to know, will you come with me? 
Goddamn, well I declare, have you seen the like? Their wall are built of cannonballs, their motto is "Don't tread on me, Come hear Uncle John's Band playing to the tide, Come with me, or go alone, he's come to take his children home. 
It’s the same story the crow told me; it's the only one he knows. Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go. Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait, Wo, oh, what I want to know, where does the time go? 
I live in a silver mine and I call it Beggar's Tomb; I got me a violin and I beg you call the tune, anybody's choice, I can hear your voice. Wo, oh, what I want to know, how does the song go? Come hear Uncle John's Band by the riverside, 
Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide. Come hear Uncle John 1s Band playing to the tide, Come on along, or go alone, he's come to take his children home. Wo, oh, what I want to know, how does the song go. 
Ahhh, those were the days. Well, back to the case at hand. You also wrote to me indicating that my client off "all communication" your client. Just as in Uncle John's Band, and "Jane Braine"  my friend, things "ain't always what they seem." 
Your client can always communicate with mine,  by email. The children have their own cell phones which he can use any time he likes to speak with, or text the children. He is able to communicate all day and night and is always free to continue to do so. He has never been cut off. He will never be cut off and like "Hope" that always springs eternal, there you have it. 
I have indeed (as you so accurately stated) given my client my most skillful, most excellent "expert advice." Alas,  if our clients could only get along as famously as we do -free from animosity - despite our differences. But, we do what we can, I suppose. 
Thank you so very kindly for reading this letter. However, I just hate it when you say things like either of our clients "called the police" on the other. I cannot imagine such an affront,  but I promise you that I will most "really and sincerely" tell my client that just like Rodney King, I do not understand why we "can't all just get along." But, then again poor Rodney did eventually die at the hands of the police. Oh well, perhaps you and I will fare better in our relationship. For myself, I would never call the police on you. 
As to the serious charge of "alienation" I would like to tell you that my client is a natural citizen having, been born in the United States. As for me, my ancestors came here on the Mayflower (true story) and therefore, the only thing I can imagine you mean is that somehow you may have formed the opinion that my client is not supporting your client relationships with his children. I would like to assure you that your client's good deeds to his children speak for themselves. I believe that as a father, he must see himself as a generous and kind father, who would never do anything at all to harm either his children, nor the mother of his children. I honestly believe that both of our clients see themselves in such a light, and I also believe that neither sees the other that way. But still, we try, do we not? If I have told my client that once, I have told her that one thousand times (well maybe not an actual thousand).  I am sure she agrees that she is good. I am sure your client agrees that he is good. Our charge is to get them each to see the other through the other's eyes. But as to the actual issue of "alienation" I really am somewhat confused. I believe personally that the alienation process is the actual divorce itself. But if not, I will try once again to work on that for you and your client. 
I hope that my having taken the time to be both lengthy, kind, warm and fuzzy with you will start a new and wondrous example for our clients as to how to get along. I know I try to set a good example with every case I have and I know you do as well. 
May the force be with us as we guide our clients through this universe of litigation. I am not sure if Obi-Wan Kanobi was in this universe or one close by - but like Buddha, I do believe that all universes are really just "one." 
Your Friend,
Signature of the Attorney
P.S. Your client apparently "keyed" my client's car recently. Maybe, if he did not do such things, I could get my client closer to her "warm fuzzy place" - like us! 
The following P.P.S was hand written.
P.P.S You try to work “Buddha” and “Obi-Wan” into one Sentence! : )
I have added and the following was not part of the letter….
The scariest enemy is someone so random you have no idea how to prepare, someone who has no rational fear of conseque
