I owe $750 for filming an urban

this was my last day living in Colorado.. I was filming an urban session and didn't even get to hit the rail (notice in the photo that I'm wearing sneakers) and then the cops showed up and told us to break down the lip and pack it up. after being told at the scene that the owner wasn't pressing charges we thanked the officer for being courteous and left the scene.. I honestly thought of it as another example of how awesome people in Colorado are only, to find out today that he changed his mind and sued all three of us. totaling in $350 in restitution and $300 in court fees from each of us totaling $1050 to repaint a 30 ft railing? (which sounds closer to the cost of a brand new railing) and to top it all off, Colorado never sent me a summons so I missed this court date without talking to them and now have to try and get a warrant removed from out there...
this is absolute fucking bullshit and is really putting a dent in the funds for my move back to Tahoe. so fuck you mr. colorado snob, I'm glad I chose to move back to Cali.

No summons, no papers.... but a warrant? Sounds fishy
Shit doesn't happen like that.... legally.

you know who else calls it Cali? most people that I know. why use five syllables when you can use two? especially when everyone in the USA knows exactly what you are talking about

besides I AM moving back to CALI.. but not from Colorado because I am in Massachusetts now.

you are so fucking thick (and not in the way the girls like)

that def sucks dude but I gotta agree with some others who have commented, if you're filming, you're an accessory and essentially a participant. if anybody gets in trouble you better expect to share some blame.

It does not seem like this lawsuit holds much water. If you did not hit the rail, and all you did was make a lip, the case will not pass for 750 if you represent yourself and testify the truth that you did absolutely no damage.

yes this would be true... but that's probably because I've lived all over the country and have met a lot of people in my lifetime. but that doesn't mean that I don't know plenty of people who are from Cali, who call it "Cali"
do yourself a favor and stay in Colorado, you are clearly dependent on your legal weed (not sure how else you could be this fucking dumb/obnoxious) enjoy your season you burn out, I'll be enjoying mine.

rational person out!

Maybe people destroying my shit? Sorry its too much to expect that things I pay for are my property. How can you guys get all up in arms when some kids skis get stolen and then turn around and support someone who was destroying another persons property?

A rational person would just take the advice when it's given and stop making the locals secretly cringe when they hear that. I was skiing Squaw when you were learning to walk.

And thank you, I will indeed enjoy getting legal weed in Colorado. I really appreciate the sentiment. Maybe you should come partake a bit cuz clearly you need to chill the fuck out.


I think you should consider not just a lawyer, but a shrink a well. Or a nice joint. You're overreacting.

Its not the fact that what he did was illegal. Its the service of process surrounding the summons. You can get this waived in court because of the improper service of summons. Hence, the case can get dropped. Never claimed to be an attorney. Just a law student trying to help someone out with legal advice lay people don't know about or understand the ramifications of.

Calling California "Cali" is like calling Colorado "Colo" or "Rado" or something as asinine sounding as that.

It's just like when people call San Francisco "Frisco". Frisco is a town in Colorado. Not the gateway to the west.

Hahaha so where you are from its legal to trespass? can i walk into your home and eat your food? lol no matter how sue happy Americans are, this is irrelevant...

Also, you should have been hand issued a summons and told "YOUVE BEEN SERVED" if this didnt happen. dont stress about it.

I mean it was 2 weeks after the season was over.. in a remote area of Mt. CB so we didn't even know anybody was around (it was a neighbor that called the cops)
a couple days before we were skiing a couple urban spots right off the main road with cars passing by in broad daylight and nobody did anything.. also the fact that its such a small chill stoner ski town we would have never dreamed that some fuck bag would do this.
Yes we should pay for the damage and I would expect him to ask us do that (or repair it ourselves) but he is charging us over three times the amount and took us to court so that now we will have to pay 300 in court fees and have this on our records.

I have never heard anyone say Colo, Rado, or Frisco.. but I have heard Coloradical, and San Fran.

people also refer to my home state as 'Mass' and say 'Indy' to shroten Indianapolis (it's just easier to shorten thing and you should accept that)
I guess I say 'Cali' because I'm a fuckin' G.. I wouldn't expect hipster Oregon kids to understand what it's like to live the G life even if they do pretend to be poor.

bring this up with Biggie (and Puff).. tell the Notorious B.I.G. that he's wrong and he'll probably jump your ass in the after life. just sayin'

I understand you didn't receive notice in time. Just curious, did any of your friends receive notice and appear in court? If your friends showed up to court with written quotes from painters showing the rail could be repainted properly at a lower cost, the judge may have reduced the amount awarded. I'm guessing the property owner had a quote from some one who came out and looked at the rail. I doubt it's just some arbitrary number he came up with.

You're an idiot. Everyone knows that the one thing NOT to do in Colorado is urban because you will get absolutely fucked by the law if you get caught. Lesson learned, young grasshopper.
