its much easier to get a false conviction on someone than it is to catch real crimes and convict the "evil-doers" in those crimes.... please keep that in mind when using your opinions.. idiocracy should be a crime

this most likely explains why the share price started at 1.50 offering and is now under.03 (three cents) who's been doing the volume and why isn't the CEO doing anything? anybody know?

I should've prevailed .....
by GeorgeTannous May 20, 2007 8:20 AM PDT
Obviously, my attorneys did a very poor job and at this time we are seeking damages for malpractice. I should've prevailed should they have done their job right.

Here is an excerpt from the court of appeals:

"Excerpt from the 8th Circuit's opinion rejecting Tannous' appeal: "As an initial matter, Tannous waived his argument regarding sufficiency of the evidence because the issue was not developed in his briefs as required by Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure. It is thus considered abandoned...Sufficient evidence exists supporting the verdict."

Here is another statement:

"Tannous appealed. He lost again last week. The 8th Circuit did acknowledge that the $11 in punitive damages may have been wrongly awarded because of improper jury instructions, but declined to do anything about it."

I don't know why as of yet but will fight this to the end.

I am innocent!!!

Respectfully,

George

You have been misleading and lying to innocent people for a very long time. It is about time that they coaught up with you. You didn't get as much as you deserve! You will always come up with an excuse. All anyone has to do is research your name or any of your many "companies".
Crook!

You are a "crooked" individual and I hope that at some point in your sordid lifestyle you end up behind bars as the felon that you are. You and your lawyer deserve each other(Sabahat,I believe).

A trio of crooks with Tannous feigning innocence. Everything he has done smells of fraud.

This is the first I've heard about a judgement or anything. We have shares but have had no information in years.
