I know I should have a Lawyer, but I do not have to means to hire a lawyer. This whole case came about because I was helping a friend and changed my address to hers so I was able to pick up her prescriptions. I even explained this to the agent at the Secretary of State. I ask the state to please pull up the data from the day I went in to change my address. The agent did not ask for any documentation showing that this was my real address. That should be in the system. At this point, I guess I am just ready to give up and please ask if I may make payments because I do not want to lose my home that I have resided in for 15 years. Yes my children have always lived with me, now I have my daughter, her husband AND my three grandsons living here and all going to the local school, participate in the sports and volunteer every Friday night for the varsity games. I never thought this could happen to me. Please reconsider this case and know, I am now and have always lived at 1303 Sunset Blvd and very proudly at that. I have always paid my taxes and just don’t understand why the State want to treat their own resident this way. I really don’t know what else to say or do besides throw myself at the mercy of the Tribunal.
