You’ve posted EIGHT comments defending this company with what ifs.

Basically, if the Mansells had filed a form with the Oregon Secretary of State, they would have a much simpler claim.

Or they thought that the losses were acceptable to avoid having to make sworn statements about the series of events that are still at issue in the previous owner's case and some events that may very well still be charged by Oregon prosecutors.

Quantum physics guarantees us anything is a possibility. The question is, is it a likely one at all? And the overwhelmingly likely reasons are obvious to anyone with half a brain, given all the surrounding context here.
