I read somewhere in my surfing that after the death of the defendant, the plaintiff has 1 yr in which to file a claim against the estate. I don't remember if this was CA law, FL law or some other state (I viewed so many). Do you know if this would apply to this particular judgment?
I am not sure if I understand your question. IIRC, Creditors have one year to file a claim against someone's Estate. The Goldman's and The Brown's are not Creditors. As has been discussed, OJ's heirs will inherit the Judgment through his Estate. At that time, it will then be up to The Goldman's or The Brown's to enforce the Judgment against OJ's heirs to get the Judgment paid. That's where it has come up, "Will Fred? Won't Fred?"

I could never root for a team that has T.O. on its roster. Since both Philly and Dallas have secured a place in the playoffs, I've got to be cheering loudly for the team that said "No way will we put up with T.O. and his mouth". Pgh's season will end tomorrow, but I still love my Steelers.
Sorry socal. Now let's get back on topic.

I do not believe that with the new bankruptcy laws, you can walk away from credit card debt.
Prior to the new Bankruptcy Laws, credit card debt was dischargeable. However, that's why the Laws were changed. Too many people were running up massive credit card debt and then would file Bankruptcy to get rid of it. Not anymore. Ain't going to happen!

Wouldn't they be considered creditors of the Estate? The judgment was entered against a living O.J. and upon his death, his will would have to go through probate. At that time, anyone wishing to file a claim against his estate would have to step forward. I don't think a judgment against the estate would be automatically entered.
I've read so many different articles that I may be confusing probate with bankruptcy.

I haven't heard anywhere that OJ has filed bankruptcy and I'm not suggesting he has. I only have related what I found out about the laws and how they may or may not apply to a civil judgment.
ALL ~ as OJNUT and Martin like to say:
OJ has not filed Bankruptcy, trust me! OJ is an idiot, but he is not stupid! I firmly believe that if OJ thought that he could ever get the Judgment off of his back through Bankruptcy, he would have filed Bankruptcy the day after the Judgment was rendered against him ~ post haste!
As has been discussed, filing BANRUPTCY will not and never will absolve anyone who has a CIVIL JUDGMENT filed against them. Period! As I have previously stated, it is an anvil around your neck forever and ever (with interest accruing daily) ~ until it is paid off!

I don't know what anyone is talking about anymore. I should have started a separate Thread for my question because it really doesn't relate to "Goldmans Sue."
Probate, Trusts and Bankruptcy are three different things. I don't care what WA or Martin say. I will believe Diva's Brother over them anyway, any day!
No. Again, just because OJ dies doesn't mean that the Judgment will go "poof!" Nobody, but nobody would be that lucky, OJ included. I am sure that it is nationwide because if it wasn't, everybody would be living in a State that does not honor Judgments. To me, it's insane to think that one State would honor a Judgment, but another State wouldn't. It's crazy and I will never believe it!
Again, the Judgment is not an Asset; it is not a Creditor ~ it is a Liability and will pass from heirs, to heirs, to heirs ~ until it is paid off!
Just trying to keep the record straight, if that's possible. Nothing against you personally!

They would be considered Creditors and would have one year to file a claim for payment against OJ's Estate. If the cable company received a Judgment against OJ, then it would also become a Liability to his heirs to ultimately pay off!

No, you're wrong! The title of this Thread is Goldmans Sue. Sue for what? Sue for the Judgment that's what! And that's is what we are talking about is the Judgment and what happens to it when OJ dies! Don't like it?

I understand most of what you are saying (honest -- I'm trying really hard).
Are you saying that if OJ leaves an estate valued at $10mil and Fred's outstanding judgment is $20mil the kids would have to liquidate ALL of OJ's assets in order to pay half of what is left on the judgment and would still be responsible for the remaining half? Please be patient with me :confused: but that hardly seems fair.

I've been on both ends of this -- it is my belief that once all assets of the deceased are liquidated and those monies disbursed to satisfy outstanding debts, then the judgment would end. Heirs to the estate do not assume his 'bills' -- the estate is responsible in as much as what can be sold/disbursed. The heirs receive whatever assets/monies are left after all outstanding debts are satisfied to whatever extent the assets allow before being depleted. IMO

Again, FBG, you're talking about assets. The Judgment is not an asset. It is a liability and will NEVER end as you state, until it is completely, down to the penny, paid off.
All of the Creditors will be paid off first, through the assets of OJ's Estate. After that, if there are no assets left in OJ's Estate to even remotely cover the Judgment, the heirs are still liable for full payment of the Judgment. As I have previously stated, if OJ's heirs decide not to pay a penny of the Judgment just like OJ did, the Judgment just keeps accruing interest daily and will keep on reverting to his heirs' Estate(s), their heirs' Estate(s), their heirs' Estate(s) ~ up to and including infinity.
Since OJ has refused to pay the Judgment, he has placed an enormous anvil around the necks of all of his heirs, their heirs and their heirs. Such a GR8 guy and Father too, right?

As you well know, nothing in life is fair. The heirs only have OJ to blame for their predicament and OJ's refusal to not pay off the Judgment while he was alive. OJ has/had a better chance of paying off the Judgment as much as he could than his heirs do/did. Unless, of course, they wake up one day and win the Lotto for $500,000,000 or become Rock Stars or become Box Office Big Bucks Mega Stars!
The Judgment was for $33,500,000 divided equally between the Brown's and the Goldman's, or $16,750,000 each (accruing interest daily). We are assuming that the Brown's won't sue the heirs of OJ's Estate for their half of the Judgment, but it will still be considered an outstanding Liability against the heirs. It will remain to be seen if Fred will sue the heirs for his half. I am pretty sure that he will, but I am just speculating as we all are.
I hope this helps!

When links aren't provided, I try to do my own research. I do this routinely because I believe very little of what I read on a message board. I have been looking (unsuccessfully) for verification of what you are saying about these never-ending judgments. As Judge Judy says "If it doesn't make sense, it probably isn't true". This concept you are talking about makes no sense to me whatsoever. Since I can't find a link to support it, would you please supply one?
I am an accountant, not a lawyer. It is quite possible that in the legal world the terms debtor and the way you are interpreting a "liability" are different. Someone who owes you money is a debtor (that would be OJ) and that debt is a liability on your balance sheet. The liability decreases as payments are made and the balance is carried until the debt is satisfied. If the debtor (OJ) dies prior to the liability being satisfied, you can file a claim against the estate and possibly get a percentage of what you are owed when the assets are divided among the creditors (the Browns, the Goldmans and everyone else to whom money is owed). Once this distribution is made, that's it. You have to take what you can get -- you can't go after his children, his grandchildren or greatgrandchildren individually for the balance of the debt. It is possible that it works differently when a civil judgment is owed but I doubt it.

As I said, I am not an attorney. It is my understanding that it is the duty of the Executor (when there is a will) and if no will has been executed, an Administrator will be appointed to distribute the assets. When the debt of an estate exceeds the assets, I am not sure how the distribution is decided. I would imagine an attorney would have to step in but it could be at the sole discretion of the Executor. I also believe that (like in a bankruptcy) there are some debts that come right off the top -- like Fed and State taxes -- but, again, I don't know this for certain.

I had WorldCom and Enron stock. There were judgments against both. Settlement on those judgments are by percentage. This means that pay-offs start with the largest debt and works its way down. I was a little fish in a big pond so I don't expect to receive any of my money back.
I think the larger question is whether orenthal's Homestead exemption protects his home from being sold to satisfy his debts after his death. In Texas, having a Homestead Exemption keeps creditors from seizing your property to satisfy debts. However, when my folks died, their home had to be sold and the money used to pay expenses. I just don't know if Florida's Homestead Law is the same. orenthal must believe his home is protected since he said he used the book money to pay off his mortgage.

All of my information comes from job experience and the department that I worked in. Maybe the procedures for Civil Judgments have changed since 2001, but I very much doubt it! I have just tried to be helpful.
One more time and the last time: In a Civil Judgment, OJ is not a Debtor and the Brown's/Goldman's are not Creditors. OJ is the Defendant and the Brown's/Goldman's are the Plaintiffs. The Jury found in favor of the Plaintiffs and a Judgment was rendered against the Defendant.
Now, if OJ borrowed money from the Brown's/Goldman's and never repaid it, then OJ would be the Debtor and the Brown's/Goldman's would be the Creditors and would have one year to file a claim against OJ's Estate to get paid. Depending on the assets left in the Estate and the pecking order of who gets paid first, the Brown's/Goldman's might not get paid anything for their Creditor claims.
As I have previously stated ~ wouldn't it be a wonderful, wonderful World if you could have a Civil Judgment(s) against you and just because you die, all of your Judgment(s) go "poof", just like that, just like they didn't exist and your heirs are now off "scott free" and the Plaintiff(s) who hold all of the Judgment(s) are just "out of luck!" Does that really make sense to you? It doesn't to me and I will never believe it!

Yes, OJ's Homestead Exemption protects his home in Florida. IIRC, that is why he moved to Florida. If he would have bought another home in California, the Brown's and the Goldman's could put an Abstract of Judgment (lien) on the new house. That means if OJ ever tried to refinance it or sell it, the Brown's and the Goldman's would get all of the proceeds, split equally, of course. I guess no one can touch his house in Florida and that is why he moved there.
My poor Nana was forced to go on MediCal when she ended up in a nursing home and she ran out of money to pay the bills. When that happens, MediCal then puts a lien on your home. When she died, the house had to be sold to pay MediCal and whatever proceeds were left was divided between her 4 children. Her kids didn't want to sell the house. They wanted to keep it in the Family, but all 4 of them didn't have the money to pay off MediCal, so they had to sell it. Whenever I am in the area, I drive by my Nana's house and it makes me cry. She (and my Popa until he died) lived in that house for over 60 years!

I don't understand why people are so upset that OJ moved to Florida, even if his primary goal was not to pay the judgement. I have hard time believing that any us, regardless of being G or NG would pay off a civil suit judgement before we would ensure the security of our children.
Another very real problem, IMO, is that while the Goldmans want to make sure the public knows that Simpson has paid very little of the judgement, they also want to make it clear that anyone who gives Simpson the chance to make a lot of money will be smeared as well.
I don't think Simpson would pay the judgement even it was $100.00 and I don't think the Godmans would believe a billion million dollar judgement paid off will ever be enough.
I think DeputyDi has it, it is a cat and mouse game being played by Simpson and the Goldmans and IMO, there will be no winners, only losers. IMO.

Just because OJ moved to Florida doesn't absolve him of the Judgment. Yeah, OJ sure did ensure the security of his kids. After he dies, THEY will be responsible for the payment of HIS Judgment ~ and their heirs, and their heirs, and their heirs ~ to infinity!

I don't think Simpson would pay the judgement even it was $100.00 and I don't think the Godmans would believe a billion million dollar judgement paid off will ever be enough.
OJ should have thought about that when he murdered Nicole and Ron. If OJ murdered your son or daughter, would a billion dollar judgment ever be a enough to you? I doubt it! So, you are no better than Fred Goldman IMO!

. . . AND judgments. It is my firm belief that this debt will end when OJ dies and his will is probated. Until I can find something that says otherwise, I will hold to that belief.
Also, 2L8 has been insisting that the judgment is a liability and not a debt (there really is no difference), the term "judgment debtor" is used consistently.

correct.
for the person holding the judgement, the judgement can be seen as a asset on the assets side of his balance sheet (if collectable) for the debitor it is a liability (debt) on the libiilty side of his balalce sheet.

I had WorldCom and Enron stock. There were judgments against both. Settlement on those judgments are by percentage. This means that pay-offs start with the largest debt and works its way down. I was a little fish in a big pond so I don't expect to receive any of my money back.
I think the larger question is whether orenthal's Homestead exemption protects his home from being sold to satisfy his debts after his death. In Texas, having a Homestead Exemption keeps creditors from seizing your property to satisfy debts. However, when my folks died, their home had to be sold and the money used to pay expenses. I just don't know if Florida's Homestead Law is the same. orenthal must believe his home is protected since he said he used the book money to pay off his mortgage.

The effort to take skillings money is on befalf of stockholders/employees. Right? or does this include outside stockholders.

I know this isn't from CA but it's all I can find at the moment. I'm still looking. Please read #4 -- it clearly says a Judgment Debt is treated the same as any other debt on the estate.
28-20-06. Judgments - Collection from property of decedent. If judgment has been
rendered against a person who thereafter dies:
1. The judgment may be enforced by execution against any real property of the
decedent upon which it had become a lien prior to the decedent's death, but no such
execution may issue until after the expiration of one year from the death of the
judgment debtor;
2. If execution was actually levied prior to the decedent's death upon personal property,
such property may be sold to satisfy the execution, and the officer making the sale
shall account to the personal representative for any surplus remaining in the officer's
hands;
3. If the judgment is for the recovery of real or personal property or for the enforcement
of a lien thereon, execution may issue for the enforcement of such judgment; and
4. If the judgment is for the recovery of money, it may be presented as any other claim
against the estate of the decedent.

Exceptions for certain creditors
Three types of creditors can still force the sale of a homestead to collect debts owed to them. These are:
The State of Florida and its counties or municipalities, to collect past due property taxes;
Parties to whom the property was specifically pledged as credit for a mortgage;
Mechanics who are owed money for work performed in repairing or improving the property.
Because the homestead exemption is state law, it can also be over-ridden by the United States federal government, to satisfy federal income tax debts for example, although this has rarely occurred.

GENERAL INFORMAITON AND OPINIONS.
OJ SIMPSON
http://www.usatoday.com/news/index/nns220.htm
Bankruptcy
Simpson could declare bankruptcy, which would exempt him from having to post the bond and might stave off his creditors. But some experts say the strategy might not wipe out the $8.5 million in compensatory damages. Although such damages often are excused by a bankruptcy, some experts say that probably wouldn't apply in a case in which the jury found that the defendant acted maliciously.
And even if the compensatory damages were forgiven by a bankruptcy action, Simpson still would have to pay the $25 million in punitive damages.
Moreover, a bankruptcy would force Simpson to subject all his holdings and income to the scrutiny of a federal judge, severely limiting other moves he may want to make.
"The power of a federal bankruptcy judge is much stronger than that of a state judge and extends to the entire nation . . . a far more serious proceeding than a state court proceeding," says Richard Share, a Los Angeles lawyer specializing in collections.
Exile
Simpson could flee the country. Places likes Switzerland and Gibraltar don't recognize civil judgments from other nations. Simpson could invest there and protect himself against any seizure.
Even if he picks a country that does recognize a U.S. judgment, "It's virtually impossible to find out what assets a person has in any foreign country," civil lawyer Art Rutledge says.
The families are entitled to take up to 25% of Simpson's future earnings. Although a civil creditor legally can pursue the collection process in most foreign nations, it can take years. And once a business employing Simpson gets the garnishment order, Simpson could shift his work to a different company based in a different country without even having to move.
The families then would have to start the collection process over again.
Simpson could move to Texas or Florida, where 100% of a home's value is protected against a civil judgment. Terrell says Simpson's sister, Shirley Baker, is begging him to leave southern California.
For that matter, a civil court can't touch any home anywhere in the nation if it's liened to another creditor. That's the situation with Simpson's Rockingham estate. It is valued at $3.7 million by Simpson, and $2.3 million is mortgaged to a bank. Some analysts believe he may simply walk away and let the banks foreclose.
Children's trusts
Simpson could put assets in trust for his children. Technically, the plaintiffs could invade that fund, but few expect they would. "There's going to be public scorn if they do that," jury consultant Robert Hirschhorn says. "They'll win the battle but lose the war . . . in the court of public opinion."
In effect, Simpson could end up paying himself. He was ordered to pay $12.5 million in punitive damages to the Goldmans and $12.5 million to Nicole's heirs, the two children who live with him.
Although Lou Brown, Nicole's father, is executor of the estate, the money almost certainly will be held in trust by an independent guardian appointed by the court. And as the children's primary custodian, Simpson could use some of that money to cover the family's living expenses. Usually that is done on a prorated basis, meaning Simpson could pay two-thirds of the household bills from the children's trusts.
Grandparents Lou Brown and his wife, Juditha, have vowed to continue fighting for custody of the children. The judge who awarded Simpson custody in December indicated that the civil verdict, however it turned out, would not make her change her mind.
The kids are entitled to live in the style to which they are accustomed, guardianship lawyer Susan Cooley says. That means private school tuition (theoretically, even a Swiss boarding school), designer clothing and vacations on the ski slopes in the Alps.
Simpson could enjoy benefits from the children's money until they turn 18 and take over their own trusts. Sydney, 11, turns 18 in 2003, and Justin, 8, turns 18 in 2006.
Moreover, in just over five years, Simpson's $4.1 million in pension and retirement incomes kick in. And few analysts say the families can touch that money.
Simpson does surrender some equity rights for a long time. He can keep only $75,000 in home equity for himself and $1,900 in car equity. His limit on art and jewelry is $5,000. But his Rockingham estate houses the children and his $64,000 Chevy Suburban transports the children. Theoretically, he could turn over the jewelry and art to the children.
The families then could face a legal challenge to take those. More important is this question: Would they really take such things from the children?
Pay up
None of this is to suggest that Simpson will do anything to hide his assets. He could decide to avoid the hassle and simply agree to a 25% wage garnishment. He'll still have 75% of his earnings, plus the retirement money.
The families would have 20 years to collect their debt, so Simpson, 49, could live with this arrangement until he's almost 70.

*Snipped*Yes, OJ's Homestead Exemption protects his home in Florida. IIRC, that is why he moved to Florida. If he would have bought another home in California, the Brown's and the Goldman's could put an Abstract of Judgment (lien) on the new house. That means if OJ ever tried to refinance it or sell it, the Brown's and the Goldman's would get all of the proceeds, split equally, of course. I guess no one can touch his house in Florida and that is why he moved there.
I understand that his home is protected now -- my question was whether or not it would still be protected at his death.
http://floridaassetprotection.blogs.com/alperlaw/creditor_rights/index.html
How Long Does A Judgment Last?
I received a call from a doctor who had his checking account garnished by a creditor who obtained a judgment over 10 years ago. The caller had found by his own research that judgement liens expire in 10 years, and he asked how the creditor could apply his judgement which is now over 10 years old to garnish a bank account.
The caller confused judgments and judgment liens. A judgment lien is the recording of a certified judgment with the Florida registry. The recording gives the judgment holder priority over judgments subsequently recorded. Any proceeds from the forced sale of debtor’s property subject to the judgment will go to pay priority judgment liens first, and money left over, if any, is applied to the junior liens. Property such as homestead is not subject to judgment liens. After 10 years the first recorded judgment lien loses its priority standing
Judgments which are not recorded as liens, or are recorded as junior liens, are still valid judgments which can be executed against the debtor’s property. A judgment creditor may garnish the debtor’s bank accounts even if the creditor has not recorded its judgment or has recorded in second place. Florida Statute 55.081 states that judgments are good for 20 years. Therefore, 10 years after this caller’s creditor had obtained a judgment and recorded the judgment the creditor may have lost the priority of his recorded lien, but the judgment was still in effect and could be used to obtain a writ of garnishment.

As has been discussed, filing BANRUPTCY will not and never will absolve anyone who has a CIVIL JUDGMENT filed against them. Period! As I have previously stated, it is an anvil around your neck forever and ever (with interest accruing daily) ~ until it is paid off!

Sorry, I disagree. No Court Judgment(s) can ever be erased by a Bankruptcy. If that were the case, what part of "OJ would have filed Bankruptcy, post haste, to absolve himself of the Civil Judgment" don't you get?
I also don't think that people who unfortunately have a catastrophic illness and no insurance can get rid of the debt through Bankruptcy. Haven't you heard of people losing everything they have just because of a catastrophic illness? Even if they have insurance, depending on the policy, some pay 100%, some pay 90% and some pay 80%. If you have medical bills over one million dollars, your 10% and 20% could wipe you out and sometimes it does. You read about it all of the time!

I don't understand why people are so upset that OJ moved to Florida, even if his primary goal was not to pay the judgement. I have hard time believing that any us, regardless of being G or NG would pay off a civil suit judgement before we would ensure the security of our children.
Another very real problem, IMO, is that while the Goldmans want to make sure the public knows that Simpson has paid very little of the judgement, they also want to make it clear that anyone who gives Simpson the chance to make a lot of money will be smeared as well.
I don't think Simpson would pay the judgement even it was $100.00 and I don't think the Godmans would believe a billion million dollar judgement paid off will ever be enough.
I think DeputyDi has it, it is a cat and mouse game being played by Simpson and the Goldmans and IMO, there will be no winners, only losers. IMO.

i have said this before. freds attack on oj has influenced corporate america to black ball oj from any meaningful employment or business. yet he requested and received one of the largest civil judgements in the history of america.

the law dictionery agree with your post 100%
http://dictionary.law.com/default2.asp?selected=1058&bold=
judgment creditor
n. the winning plaintiff in a lawsuit to whom the court decides the defendant owes money. A judgment creditor can use various means to collect the judgment. The judgment is good for a specified number of years and then may be renewed by a filed request. If the defendant debtor files for bankruptcy, the judgment creditor will have priority (the right to share in assets) ahead of general creditors who are not secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and do not have judgments. However, if the bankrupt person has no assets, this becomes an empty advantage.

Thanks. I really don't understand posters who are so desperate to be "right" they simply ignore everything else. 2L8 is just being hardheaded. I don't really believe she is that dense -- just determined that she is NOT WRONG and it doesn't seem to matter to her that she has been provided proof that she is.

Here is my take on this:
IMO, Simpson will ensure that when he dies, the judgement will die with him. He has made it clear why he will not pay the judgement, I'm sure he has asked the questions on how to ensure that his children will not have to pay that judgement either.
And while we all talk about the money Simpson has earned since the civil trial, people forget that there are quite a few people and/or agencies that are ahead of the Goldmans' and Browns' because that is what the law says.
Hey, lawyers gotta make sure they get their chunk of change as well. The IRS/Taxman plays second to no one--including the victim and or victim's family.

Sorry, I disagree. No Court Judgment(s) can ever be erased by a Bankruptcy. If that were the case, what part of "OJ would have filed Bankruptcy, post haste, to absolve himself of the Civil Judgment" don't you get?
I also don't think that people who unfortunately have a catastrophic illness and no insurance can get rid of the debt through Bankruptcy. Haven't you heard of people losing everything they have just because of a catastrophic illness? Even if they have insurance, depending on the policy, some pay 100%, some pay 90% and some pay 80%. If you have medical bills over one million dollars, your 10% and 20% could wipe you out and sometimes it does. You read about it all of the time!

You do not need to apologize for disagreeing. However, as I stated in a Chapter 7 case, where it is determined that there are no assets, and the case is ultimately discharged by court order and closed without a right to reopen, all debts, regardless of the type are wiped out. In asset cases the trustee has to make a report of distribution and final report of distribution, stating the creditors and the percentage of the debt each creditor was/will be paid. I would assume in the cases you are talking about that there were assets found, which enabled a full or partial distribution.

He said that if Orenthal died, the judgement would go against his estate & if Fred Goldman died, the judgement that was awarded would become part of his estate. He basically said there is no time limit on a judgement.

Isn't that EXACTLY what I've been saying? One more time -- the judgment would be levied against OJ's ESTATE. What part of that is in dispute? You keep insisting that the judgment would remain (if not paid in full) as part of Arnelle's estate, Justin's estate, Sidney's estate, etc, etc, etc. It would NOT. If there are not enough assets in OJs estate to cover the full amount of the judgment, Fred CANNOT hold ANY OF OJ's CHILDREN PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE for the balance. Got it now?

O.J. has sucessfully kept his money out of the Goldman's hands for almost 10 years. Mrs.Rufo sent her lawyer to the hotel where O.J. was signing helmets and jerseys.She got nothing.
O.J. has a lawyer and golfing buddies who are lawyers.
Just heard on tv,that a judge has issued a restraining order for O.J. not to transfer any more money.
And anyone who owes O.J. any money to turn it over to Golddigger instead.
But Yale said last month that O.J. has been paid in full.And his name is NOT on any contract.

Money earned from selling autographs at those shows is knida hard to follow even for the irs. I am sure he records some of it as income and pays taxes but maby not all of it. If the childrens company paid him in money for the rights to the story, he will have to pay taxes on that income. imo jmo

Actually in a Chapter 7 case, regardless of the presence of assets, there are several types of debt that are not eligible for discharge. Examples of such debts that are exempted from discharge are student loan obligations, child support obligations, taxes and tax liens, and alimony.
Civil judgments can indeed be discharged, but it not an "automatic". In a wrongful death judgment the bankruptcy court will discharge negligence damages but generally any damages in a civil judgment that are the result of gross negligence, recklessness, or malice will generally be deemed non-dischargeable if the creditor objects.
Because OJ's Simpson's judgment came from a verdict of " ... with malice aforethought ..." his judgment would more than likely be deemed non-dischargeable, since we obviusly know that Fred Goldman as a creditor would object.

Kinetic Kate, until I find something more appropriate
I would like to disagree, in a Chapter7 bankruptcy that has been closed as a no asset case and the court has ordered the case closed as such, and then those debts are dischargeable, unless there has been some type of prior agreement between the creditor and debtor. Here is a link that I found on the subject. If the debtor has no assets and no means of repaying the debt, then the notion of bankruptcy would be moot. Of course, there are legal conditions to be met. Here is the link.

In the widely publicized 1996 case of O.J. Simpson, although a losing defendant in a lawsuit, he still got to keep $25,000 a month in spending money. Despite the fact that he lost all assets held in his own name, he was able to keep all income from money he had placed in trust years before the lawsuits were filed.

Good Morning,
Chapter 7 bankruptcy cases will never discharge the obligations that I mentioned.
For example, section 523(a)(8) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code was amended in 1998 to exempt student loan debt from discharge in bankruptcy, regardless of the amount of time the loan has been in repayment. Prior to this amendment, a student loan debt had to be in repayment for a minimum period of seven years in order for the obligation to be forgiven.
In order to discharge a student loan debt, the debtor would have to initiate a seperate lawsuit, referred to as an Adversary Proceeding, against the creditor in which financial discovery would take place and a judge would determine whether or not meeting the student loan obligation would cause the debtor undue financial hardship.
In the absence of an Adversary brought forth by the debtor however, a student loan debt is automatically non-dischargeable regardless of the bankruptcy chapter filed or the assets available from the estate.

Good morning Kinetic Kate,
I think we have said the same thing. In other words, there are circumstances that may allow the discharge of the debts. I did not say, or. at least mean to say that the debts were automatically dischargeable. What I was referring to was the claim that they can never be discharged. We may have a difference of opinion as to what an adversary proceeding is. The adversary proceeding takes place in the Bankruptcy Court, imho. If it did not it would constitute a possible conflict between the rulings of two different courts.

The Adversay does take place in the bankruptcy court because it must be filed in conjunction with an active bankruptcy case. However, it is a completely separate filing from the bankruptcy filing itself, with separate case numbers and procedures.
Therefore, it is still correct to say that a bankruptcy filing in itself will never discharge the obligations that I mentioned.

KInetic Kate,
I must again disagree, given your agreement that it does take place in a Bankruptcy Court, which rules on bankruptcy matters, and the bankruptcy begins with the filing of a petition and subsequent assignment of a bankruptcy trustee, which in all likelihood, the proceeding would be against the determination of the trustee, over which the bankruptcy court/judge, has jurisdiction and original jurisdiction over the petition, the proceeding, while having separate numbers and filing, still is part of the bankruptcy, and, as such, can be discharged by the bankruptcy court, who files an order of discharge in bankruptcy cases. I do not believe that I stated the filing of a petition would automatically discharge a debt, and, therefore, I agree with your last sentence. I was referring to the discharge and the conditions under which the discharge is granted and/or denied.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to stay home, and I bet most of the working mothers WANT to stay home with their children. Unfortunately, circumstances don't always allow for it. 2l8's post seemed kind of a slam to anyone who even suggested a mother with young children might have to work.
My daughter is a single mom of two and gets NO child support from her dead beat ex-husband. She didn't get anything close to a half million in her divorce settlement and had to go to work ASAP in order to pay the bills. It hasn't been easy and she didn't get the luxury of staying home with her second child (she did with the first until he was 10). When her second was born, the marriage had already started falling apart and they separated once before the baby was born and, after a brief reconciliation, they separated and divorced when he was 3 mths old. Her only education/training was 1 year of college and was prepared to do nothing. It hasn't been easy, but she's making it.
I do have a certain amount of sympathy for Nicole's situation, and I'm sure she would have liked to stay at home with her children. My only point is that sometimes it isn't possible. Sometimes the responsible adult needs to pull herself/himself up by the bootstraps and get out there and pound the pavement. You do what you have to do.

I understand fully what you are saying, but I still don't think 2L8 was slamming anyone in that regard. IMO some think they "need" to work, but truly are working to keep up with "extras" & a certain lifestyle. Clearly with some, there is no choice.
In this case, OJ seems to have married Nicole young & precluded her from getting an education or career. I think it's part of the abuse cycle. If you are independent & self supporting, you are far more likely to leave....if you are battered & supressed you are less likely to be able to "pull yourself up by the bootstraps". JMO

Thanks. Maybe I took her remark a little too personally. I completely agree with this being part of the abuse cycle. Although my dtr wasn't physically abused, over the 13 years they were married he eroded her self esteem to the point where she believed she was dumb and worthless. Nothing could have been farther from the truth and she is slowly beginning to believe in herself again. This is why she has refused to go to court and enforce the support order. She likes knowing she can do it on her own. I don't agree with this mindset, but I don't argue with her.
It had to have been mindboggling for Nicole to leave a beautiful mansion and a star studded lifestyle and find herself "making do" on a limited income. I believe it might have taken some time, but she would have eventually found her independent side. Nicole didn't impress me as some blonde "bimbo" or a clingy, needy individual. If she had been given a chance at life, I think she would have developed into an amazing woman. That's what I want to believe anyway.

:beer: That's what I heard too, Diva. That OJ is now having to dip into the principal in order to live. Too bad. So sad!
Hey OJ, keep on living beyond your means and pretty soon, before you know it, it's all going to be gone and you will have to "get a job" like all the NG's expected Nicole to do with young children at home! Boo Hoo!
JMO and MOO!!
If OJ is forced to get a menial job in order to survive, that might be sweet justice but your comment about Nicole seems a little insulting to the millions of women who have to work in order to pay the bills. Nicole's children were not babies and I'm sure she would have done what she had to do if she been given the opportunity. There is no shame in working for a living whether by choice or by necessity.:no:
What part of my post didn't you understand? Obviously, the part that I said, "get a job" like all the NG's (Not Guilties) expected Nicole to do with young children at home!" How is that "insulting to the millions of women who have to work in order to pay the bills?" It doesn't and you need to reread my post! Nicole didn't want to work; she wanted to be home with her kids and that's her perrogative and I agree with her perrogative. I am sorry that you don't. And where does it say that "young children" equate to "babies?"
You are not even reading my posts correctly. You also need to do a Search of Martin's posts. If anybody is insulting Nicole, it is he. He's the one who posted that since Nicole got a $300,000/$400,000 divorce settlement that she should have been happy with that. And, if she wasn't, then she should have gone out and got a job like so many other single/divorced women do! I don't agree, sorry!
I think that you need to put me on Ignore and then push yourself away from the computer. That's what I am going to do if I receive another post from you ~ CLICK!

Is it your nature to be so nasty? I just meant that your post sounded like it would have been unheard of to expect a mother with young children at home to get a job. If I misunderstood your meaning I am sorry. My point about them not being babies was the children were in school and were of an age where they didn't need constant care. Calm down and stop taking everything posted to you as an insult.
I don't have time to post on the board 24/7 like you do and I don't want to spend my time in a pointless argument with you or anyone else.

I understand fully what you are saying, but I still don't think 2L8 was slamming anyone in that regard. IMO some think they "need" to work, but truly are working to keep up with "extras" & a certain lifestyle. Clearly with some, there is no choice.
In this case, OJ seems to have married Nicole young & precluded her from getting an education or career. I think it's part of the abuse cycle. If you are independent & self supporting, you are far more likely to leave....if you are battered & supressed you are less likely to be able to "pull yourself up by the bootstraps". JMO
Thanks. Maybe I took her remark a little too personally.

If you don't already have me on ignore, I'd like to offer a truce. You know, we really are on the same side and there is no reason for either of us to be hostile to the other. I don't happen to agree with every single thing the G's post and I don't disagree with everything the NG's post. I consider myself an independent thinker and nothing is all black or all white. If I question or disagree with something you say, please don't take it personally. It is my nature to look at all sides of an issue. I will try my best to do the same.
I took personal offense (because of my dtr) to your comment about "working mothers". It is very possible -- even likely -- that you didn't mean it the way it read (to me).
Now, can we start over?

DeputyDi,
IMO, I think the worst thing that has ever happened to the American Family is the "No Fault Divorce". While I truly believe that no person should stay in an abusive marriage or stay in a marriage where they are truly unhappy, I think if there consequences to their behavior during the marriage, it might help to lessen the bitterness, the anger and hopefully keep the focus on the children. In my experience, I have always given the advice that before you say something or do something you regret, try to remember that at one time you loved this person and if you try to remember that your children were a product of that love, then your children will feel much more secure.
Also, IMO, I believe many woman truly believe that as the laws are written, their ex's "have to" keep their children in a lifestyle for which they have become accoustomed to, however, that hardly ever happens.
If you think about it, judge's in these type of cases have to do the same as a civil jury---they have to decided what this woman is capable of doing and how much money can she earn in the future. I still don't know how woman can earn thousands and thousands of dollars less their ex but still have to pay a 40% to the ex's 60%'s.

Your post reflects my opinion exactly. Nicole may have been used to a life of ease but when she got her divoice she had to know that the free flow on money from oj would stop. Now if it is true that she was receiving $10,000 per month child support from oj had a condo, two cars and support from her family and friends , i find it strange that she could not make ends meet. How may single mothers have this kind of cushion at divoice?
There are many mothers with 2-3 children on welfare that somehow make ends meet.
If oj did give her one of the condos for rental income and she decided to sell it then that is another decision she made and if this is what caused the IRS situation then oj had no reason to support this scam. imo jmo

I still don't know how woman can earn thousands and thousands of dollars less their ex but still have to pay a 40% to the ex's 60%'s.
No fault divorce does make it easier for a couple to split (not a good thing) but it lessens the stigma and bitterness of having to assign blame to one or the other (good thing). As with many other issues there are pros and cons. Divorce is a painful process for the adults, but it is heartbreaking when children are involved and feel the need to take sides. The kids need to understand that mom and dad may no longer love each other but they will never stop loving them.
I don't know what Nicole's child support order was, but I am pretty sure it wasn't going to afford the kind of lifestyle Justin and Sydney were used to. In my eyes, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes access to huge sums of money creates an attitude of "the world owes me". Nicole never had the kind of earning power OJ had but it seems to me that she walked away with enough to start a new life for herself. I think she eventually would have but they had only been divorced for about two years and OJ was still in her life (somewhat) even after the divorce. It takes longer than two years to get over a 17 year marriage. Unfortunately, she never got the chance to see what she could be.

ojs helped Nicole start up her own Interior design business-oj hired & paid Nicole to renovate their home. OJ also encouraged his friends such as Marcus Allen to hire Nicole. I read this in both fayes book & sheila wards.

i consider cora to have been nicoles best and closest friend. I also consider that faye was close to nicole and would have been in a position to know some things about nicoles life although she did expose a lot of details about nicoles lifestyle.
I especially believe cora as nicole wrote her a letter talking about very personal issues and she and nicole children were very close. Nicole also gave cora a key to her condo.

Then you also believe this from her deposition: "See, what happened is Nicole is so afraid of OJ.'s voice. OJ. when...he's upset, I mean, he is really -he's got a very bad temper. And, in fact, Nicole said to OJ., 'If you really went this marriage to work out you're gonna have to go to therapy to control your anger.' And OJ. said, 'Yeah, I'm going to. I'm working on it, I'm working on it."
and this: "Q: So would it be fair to say that as of June of 1994, you were aware that Nicole Simpson was afraid-physically afraid of OJ. Simpson?
MR. BAKER: Leading.
BY MR. BREWER:
Q: Is that a fair statement?
A: Well, you know, when she said, "I'm afraid"-not afraid. You know, "I'm afraid of OJ.," yes, physically afraid, yes."
In the same testimony cora testified that Nicole had received threatening phone calls and had asked oj to keep a eye one her for her safety.
Also about drug use.

You and i don't know exactly what these people did or did not do. Every charge that oj did coke was mostly from other people the same for all the rest. It is all third party comments. I don't hold anything against either one if they did drugs as that was their choice.
I thought cora and nicole were regular jogging partners and customers at starbucks around that community. so i am not aware that cora had not seen nicole in a year.Maby you can give me a link to that. If cora was not a friend of nicoles why did nicole give her a key to her condo? Why was cora at the recital with her husband taking pictures of the browns,oj and the children?

IIRC, Evidence is that cora and Nicole were regular jogging partners and testimony is that cora did have a key to Nicole's condo. In fact, it was cora's key that was used to identify Nicole's stolen key that was found with orenthal's possessions.

KInetic Kate,
I must again disagree, given your agreement that it does take place in a Bankruptcy Court, which rules on bankruptcy matters, and the bankruptcy begins with the filing of a petition and subsequent assignment of a bankruptcy trustee, which in all likelihood, the proceeding would be against the determination of the trustee, over which the bankruptcy court/judge, has jurisdiction and original jurisdiction over the petition, the proceeding, while having separate numbers and filing, still is part of the bankruptcy, and, as such, can be discharged by the bankruptcy court, who files an order of discharge in bankruptcy cases. I do not believe that I stated the filing of a petition would automatically discharge a debt, and, therefore, I agree with your last sentence. I was referring to the discharge and the conditions under which the discharge is granted and/or denied.
Good Morning William,
You stated "...in a Chapter7 bankruptcy that has been closed as a no asset case and the court has ordered the case closed as such, then those debts are dischargeable, unless there has been some type of prior agreement between the creditor and debtor..."
You mentioned nothing of an adversarial proceeding in your postings, which is required by law to discharge the obligations that I mentioned. Therefore, it seems that you did imply that the simple filing of a no asset bankruptcy would discharge all debts.
A general discharge in a bankruptcy case is a separate ruling than a discharge issued through the filing of an adversary and while the adversary must be filed in conjuction with a bankruptcy it remains a very seperate issue. It is a lawsuit of it's own, and the debtor is subject to depositions, and discovery of all finances/medical conditions, ect. A judge may order the debt in question discharged through the proceeding, but the creditor may then appeal that ruling with the Circuit Court of Appeals. In some cases, it could travel all the way to the Supreme Court.
This is getting so far off topic, but I would be more than happy to discuss further through the usage of PMs.
I trust that your weekend was good, and look forward to further correspondence.
Kate

Did you read her testimony? Nicole did not confide in her 'best' friend about the abuse and other personal things? I don't think so. Besides, 'best' friend cora was using Nicole to hide her affair with the grocery boy and it was Nicole who told her to stop, that she would not cover for her.

I personally believe orenthal was playing a game with Nicole as far as the circle of friends went. Testimony was that Nicole was disappointed that certain 'friends' had not remained friends with her after the divorce. And, then there was the circumstance of orenthal taking kato to rockingham.

I don't think i have ever said that nicole was doing drugs AT THE TIME OF HER DEATH. I have said that she did do drugs at other times previous to that and that it was reported that she stopped when she got pregnant. Cora give testrimnony to other times but not a date or time.
Nicole and cora jogged togeather 2-3 times a week. Had lunch regulary during the week. talked on the phone almost daily, Coras anf nicoles children played togeather and visited each other. Nciole and Cora took terns driving the children to school and nicole gave Cora a key to her condo in case og emergency. Cora was expecting and waiting on a call from Nicole on the night
of 6/12. This is what leads me to believe that cora was nicoles best friend.

Several months before the double-murder for which he was accused, O.J. Simpson reported to the police that five orientals [apparently Yakuza] tried to murder him by operating five cars that tried to run him off the road. OJ owned a chain of restaurants part of which was given to his ex-wife Nicole as part of a bitter divorce settlement. The businesses had brought in as silent partners Los Angeles police brass who reportedly arranged to launder the funds from a huge dope traffic supervised by the Yakuza. There were apparent quarrels among the "partners". To associates of his in other businesses, OJ complained of his growing problems with the businesses which he, in part, turned over to Nicole. According to those business associates [who we interviewed], OJ said he is going to have to "do something" to end the problems.

Hey G's,
If it is possible, just remember how Nicole felt in her divorce case. She proclaimed because of her age and Simpson's schedule, she said she was unable to attend college. I believe she said she had a total of two weeks of actually working? At least her daughter will never be in the same position her mother was in.
I am not surprised at all that where this money went hasn't been published. It would be very easy to find out where this money went and lets face it, the media would love to prove that Simpson even lies about spending the money. IRS records are not top secret, the cost of Sydney's college studies is not top secret, the cost of maintaining his home is not top secret.
Another issue, is the Goldmans' have received money from the judgement, I don't believe any amount has ever been made public. I believe they destroyed many of the items that would have made much more money had they brokered them.
I still stand my post, the Goldmans' do not want the judgement paid off in full. The money is way, way behind the their motive, IMO. Their motive is to keep Ron's name in the media and I can't blame them for that.

S-Diva,
The Browns had tons of money since the trial to prove Simpson was an unfit father, they failed horribly. They could have used tons of air time to dissect each and every parental choice Simpson made, and yet they haven't. As much as you hate it, Simpson has done right by his children since their mother's death. I know, it just eats at you and the Goldmans but he done right by his children. It just frost your cookies that Simpson has been able to provide a home and an education for his children.
If Fred Goldman wanted the judgement paid off, he would have not protested the book and the interview and neither would the Browns. The judgement would have been paid off in less then a year. The Goldmans have made the choice to drag this out and IMO, they will only lose in the end. The Goldmans can "hunt" down Simpson and his children for the rest of their lives, and they still will never ever allow the judgement to be paid off. IMO.
In a sick way, I get the feeling that many G's would love nothing better for Sydney and Justin to fail in life. That they should be forced to pay for the sins of their father. That is very, very sad.

What are talking about? I hardly see how one has anything to do with the other but since you brought it up I feel the very same way concerning the three civil rights workers. Nothing but animals could have murdered those poor kids. Violence in any form is inappropriate and disgusting.

Thank you and I would agree, but considering the numerous, reprehensible and heinous murders that have been committed to include serial murderers, I believe that giving Simpson credit for one of the most heinous murders in history may be a little too extreme. I will agree that whoever committed the murders committed a heinous act.

I'd say one of the most heinous given the fact that her head was almost chopped off on her front steps where those poor little kiddies woulda found it if the other people hadn't.

There is much truth in your post, although when the media posts gruesome pictures of many murders and speak of facts, concerning those and other murders, I still do not think that, although it is heinous, it is one of the most heinous in the annals of American history. I was actually speaking to the murders themselves, as to how they were committed. I can only imagine how the loved ones of some of the other murders, including the families of those murdered by Jeffery Dalhmier (sp) must have felt.

S-Diva,
The Browns had tons of money since the trial to prove Simpson was an unfit father, they failed horribly. They could have used tons of air time to dissect each and every parental choice Simpson made, and yet they haven't. As much as you hate it, Simpson has done right by his children since their mother's death. I know, it just eats at you and the Goldmans but he done right by his children. It just frost your cookies that Simpson has been able to provide a home and an education for his children.
If Fred Goldman wanted the judgement paid off, he would have not protested the book and the interview and neither would the Browns. The judgement would have been paid off in less then a year. The Goldmans have made the choice to drag this out and IMO, they will only lose in the end. The Goldmans can "hunt" down Simpson and his children for the rest of their lives, and they still will never ever allow the judgement to be paid off. IMO.
In a sick way, I get the feeling that many G's would love nothing better for Sydney and Justin to fail in life. That they should be forced to pay for the sins of their father. That is very, very sad.
Hi Limakey,
You have it all wrong...
http://www.apa.org/monitor/apr99/oj.html
Sills also said Stock wrongly required the Browns, who kept the children during Simpson's criminal trial, to prove the children would be harmed by remaining with Simpson. Instead, Simpson must prove his fitness as a parent.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1999/02/25/national/main36538.shtml
Simpson didn't "win" custody. The Browns could have taken custody of the kids. They weren't given a fair chance in the beginning. They came to an agreement after the KIDS begged their grandparents to stay with Simpson and to let them move to Florida. The grandparents and Simpson ended up making an agreement to the custody after they talked to their grandparents.
But he said he regrets that the case dragged on for so long before an agreement was reached for him to have custody and take the children with him to Florida.
http://www.berkeleydailyplanet.com/article.cfm?archiveDate=04-19-02&storyID=11487
Simpson is NOT a good parent. He has done many things that make him a bad parent. You are simply wrong. This last book deal was the lowest of all. That's not a good parent.
Not one guilty would like to Sydney or Justin fail. What a thing for you to say. That's what's really sad.

tazzy hi
you know that the court appointed social worker notified the court that the browns house was not a positive place for the kids to be raised in. He noted the attitude of denise as one of the reason he belived the browns house as too negative for the kids to be raised properly. I don't have the link but it had something to do with the kids hearing denise use some negative racial type words. At any rate the kids refused to live with the,m and wanted to go with their loving dad.
I understand that you believe oj killed nicole but i tihnk you are streatching facts quite a bit when you say he has not been a good parent to those kids.
i know of no facts about their lives in the last 11 years that would lead one to make that statement. A least it does seem that the kids themselves
do not agree with your assessment of oj's parenting skills. The do seem to well adjusted kids and have love for their dad and until they come out and say something different i will continue to believe oj has and is being a good parent to his kids. After all you don't know anything about their lives.

I have another issue with the ruling of the appellate court in that the evidence from the murder trial should not have been excluded. Hypothetically speaking, let's say that Simpson was acquitted on the basis of justifiable homicide, i.e. the murders were committed in self defense. Would the custody suit then necessitate including evidence of that trial? I think it would be a burden to the court.

Most children want to be with their biological parent even if they are not good parents. The grandparents finally relented because of the children wanting to be with OJ. They love their grandchildren. Sometimes that decision shouldn't be placed with the children. And, I believe that's how the Brown's were looking at it until the children plead with them to let them go to Florida.
But, this was definately not a case of the Brown's not being able to prove Simpson unfit. I believe with a final trial they would have won. I also believe that OJ wanted them to tell Juditha and Lou that they wanted to be with OJ. I also believe he put them up to it. However, I do believe they wanted to live with OJ.

I am not disagreeing with you, even though, I believe that the evidence may not have proved Simpson unfit, that most children want to be with their parents even if they are not good parents. What concerns me and maybe the Browns realized this was the psychological damage that may have been done to the children.

Martin,
Your first paragraph speaks of the early ruling. The one that was over turned and found to be unfair. Please read the links and you will understand. It was less of a positive place in Simpson's care since he murdered their mother. That's why the final ruling was that the Brown's could introduce that evidence. The kids didn't REFUSE to live with them. They WANTED to live with their father. A very natural desire.
A good parent would not try to profit off of their own child's mothers murder. A good parent would never make jokes about their child's mothers murder. A good parent would not use their children as a reason to profit off of their mothers murder. A good parent would not go on TV and tell the world that he is mad at the other parent for leaving him to deal with a female teenager. I can go on and on. I do know some things about their lives because their father is still trying to be in the public eye. He has nothing but negative publicity. But, he doesn't care because he'll do anything to make some money. OJ is not a good parent. IMO

tazzy i think the kids reported denise's foul mouth and her anti oj rants in front of the kids in the house to the social worker. The social worker interviewed everyone living in the browns house and made his report to the judge. The browns settled because they felt that the report was NOT in their favor. AS it turns out his report was definately not favorable so they would have lost in court.
The browns did not want the kids to go to oj mainly because they did not want the $10,000 monthly support payments to stop.That is what they were fighting for. They had no alternatrive when the kids told them that they did not want to live with them.
Even today Sdyne does not go there when she is on vacation in los angeles and the browns have not been to see the kids in florida since they moved there.

Please post some links to back up what you are saying. That's just a lot of bashing going on.
The social worker said that even if OJ murdered his wife they should still go with him. What?! That social worker doesn't know what she's talking about. And, she was over ruled. That was in the beginning. The Brown's said that they weren't interviewed by the social worker. You definately need to back up what you're saying.
You definately need to prove that they Brown's only wanted OJ's money. That is a very completely false statement. You are only trying to bash them. They loved the children. The kids told them from the beginning that they wanted to live with OJ. But, like I said, sometimes the kids don't know everything and what's best. Sydney doesn't avoid the Browns. You make it sound like she doesn't want to see them. That's false. And, the Browns are not in good health and can't make all the trips to Florida. Talk about stretching.

tazzy hi
The botton line is that oj and his kids got out of Dodge and moved to Florida
where they have lived and developed into great kids for the last 11 years out of reach of the grifters. Also it is important to note that now the kids know that the browns also have a large judgement against their dad which is a effort to take away his money that he need to support them in collage and in life. So oj m,ay have been telling the truth when he said the kids agreed with his lending his name to the book to make money to continue to support them. Did you ever think about that.
Wasn't it not too long ago that the lawyer for the nicoles trust had to force the browns to put that $25,000 or $50,000 into nicoles trust for the kids that they were trying to keep? Nicole condo sold got about $250,000. do you know if the browns put that money in nicoles trust as they are required to do or did they keep it.
I am not sure the browns were all that great as they seemed to always have their hand out to snatch someone elses money especially OJ'S.
You know how i feel about that bunch of money grabbers.

when lou was not doing so ggod finnancially, oj used his influence to get lou a hertz franchise in ca. when lou could not get it on his own. Literally put this guy into a lucrative and prized business. all for free.
When doninique wanted to go to collage and thay had no money, oj paid for her collage educaiton. When lou could not pay his mortage oj loaned him$300,000 to save the family home. Lou never paid a penny back. and this was before the murders. Oj was paying $10,000 per month child support to the browns when he was in jail. the browns wanted control of the kids because they did not want the $10,000 to stop. They tried to keep money that belonged in nicoles trust for themselves and was forced to give it back.
It just seems that they care more about themselves than the kids otherwise why take money from nicoles trust.
Another question;
1f nicole was being battered by oj allt those years, where were her parents when she needed them to step in and correct the situaiton. Where were they when wey allowed their 18 year old teenage daughter to marry this old professional ball player with too much experience for her. where were they when she was playing the role of the other woman as she stole oj from his wife and was shacking up with him not too far from rockingham where he and his wife and children lived.
No i cannot give them a free pass. they did not seem to be good people as you seem to believe they were. all my opinion

you may not know it but the courts have given children to parents that have been convicted of murder and served time before.
Oj was not convicted of any thing in the criminal trial and since the civil trial was only about money that does not count in my book.

I see your point concerning murderers that have killed their entire families but in a way simpson did just that. He took the life of the mother of two children and so matter what anyone says they both have to have some concern or suspicion in the back of minds about their fathers guilt. So in a way he did kill their family, and one of the main problems, and of course the murders, I have is he left his children to see what he had done. He did not consider their feelings at all. He could have gone into the house and removed the children from the back way, but he was only concerned of getting his tail out of there so he would not be detected.

Can you please calrify your last statement? I will await your response and hope it refers to nothing regarding race.
For myself, the outrage of the actual murders comes from the manner in which the two were murdered and the fact that I believe Simpson murdered them and left their bodies where the young children could have easily found them.
Have you read the autopsy reports? In a way I recommend the reports, but they are difficult to read through because the true nature of the crimes has a tendency to hit where it hurts and make the stomach turn.

I understand what you are saying, but, to me that is not the same as murdering the entire family. If he is the killer, there is no doubt that he tore the family apart. If he is not the killer, then he has suffered so great an outcry by those that are convinced of his guilt that the children may always have doubts. Perhaps, it would be in the best interest of the children, if we all could let the subject rest.

Kinetic Kate,
I read your post to martydom and hope work is not too arduous.:)
I know of a great many that were killed in a manner that I consider far more heinous than were Nicole and Ron, which is not to diminish the manner in which they were killed. I have stated that, imo, if the burden was more likely than not, I would agree that Simpson was the killer. However, because of circumstances surrounding the LE's performance in this case, and some of the experts’ testimonies, I am not convinced that he is the killer. I understand your conviction that he is and appreciate your feelings as to the manner of the killings. Again, I was not saying all are outraged over who he killed.
However, I do feel that some on this board, as evidenced by their posts, are more concerned that he was acquitted than they are with the manner of the killings. There have been many husbands that killed their wives. There have been some that have killed their wives and children. Personally, I feel that to kill anyone is uncalled for, unless done in self-defense or defense of another, but to kill or abuse a child or an elderly person for financial gain is most reprehensible. There are certain posters, who have stated that the defense got him off, because of the race card. I do not believe this was the reason he was acquitted. For those who make such claims, imho, their outrage is motivated more by race than the deed. I do believe that there are some who simply believe that he is the killer, and that the murder should be punished. However, many simply want to accuse the jury, and, not allow for the defense's impeachment of the evidence. I hope this response will clarify my statement, and, I would, likewise, like to wish you a wonderful day and many more to come.

Oj was paying $10,000 per month child support to the browns when he was in jail. the browns wanted control of the kids because they did not want the $10,000 to stop. They tried to keep money that belonged in nicoles trust for themselves and was forced to give it back.
It just seems that they care more about themselves than the kids otherwise why take money from nicoles trust.
Another question;
1f nicole was being battered by oj allt those years, where were her parents when she needed them to step in and correct the situaiton. Where were they when wey allowed their 18 year old teenage daughter to marry this old professional ball player with too much experience for her. where were they when she was playing the role of the other woman as she stole oj from his wife and was shacking up with him not too far from rockingham where he and his wife and children lived.
No i cannot give them a free pass. they did not seem to be good people as you seem to believe they were. all my opinion

Hi Martin,
OJ helped many people. OJ did financially help his in laws and Nicole's sisters. Does this make them bad people? There are many people in this world that help their families. And, there are many people in this world that take the help. No, they did not pay OJ back the loan that he gave them. How long before the murders did they get this loan? The browns had their own money before OJ. I don't really see them accepting help from OJ as something that is shocking or bad. You can only speak of a few things. OJ wasn't giving them monthly money. His own family was seeking and getting money from OJ. I believe that if I had a lot of money I would also help family members and my spouses family. I would not think bad of them if they accepted the money. It would make me feel good to help them.
I do NOT think they wanted the children just so they could have $10000 a month. OJ killed their daughter. The Brown's kept the kids often before Nicole died. They loved their grandchildren. And, I would fight for my grandkids if their father killed my daughter, their mother. And, if they came to me begging that I let it go....I probably would.
They did not keep money from Nicole's trust. They sold their own pictures and etc. And, they also ended up putting that money in the trust. Lou Brown was so offended that they were trying to make it seem like he was keeping money from the kids or mishandling the trust. He relinquished control of the Trust and there have been no allegations since. Nothing. That was right after the trial. I do not agree with the family selling some of the stuff they sold regarding Nicole. However, Lou wasn't involved in all of that. I do agree with them selling Nicole's diary entries. I believe that was an attempt to get her side out.
From what I remember they did have a problem with Nicole being with OJ at first. And, I believe it was because he was married and he was so much older. But, she was 18 and she did what she wanted. They saw she loved him and eventually welcomed OJ into their family. As far as the abuse goes...I do not think for one minute they knew what was really going on. They knew some stuff. But, I do not think they thought he would ever truly kill her. They also felt bad after all of this. They have educated themselves about abuse since. They have also tried to educate others and help victims now.
I believe they were good people. I don't agree with all of their choices but I believe they loved Nicole and Sydney and Justin.

tazzy hi
You have presented you opinions in such a excellant way that i am forced to agree with almost all of what you have posted.
I see nothing wrong with oj helping his inlaws as he was a generous person with his wealth. It just seemed that the flow of money/help was, in most cases from oj to them. imo

And, you also have some good points.

Wow, Martin. Thanks!!
OJ was a generous person with his wealth. I think maybe that is why the Brown's thought so highly of him. Not because of the money but because he was generous and seemed to genuinely care about them. When you help someone out as OJ did with the Brown's that usually means they care about what happens to you. Possibly what the Brown's could show in return is love. Juditha and OJ talked a lot. He called her for advice regarding Nicole.

OJ's lawyers offers to pay Fred from profits of book according to this article.

"We are prepared to negotiate," said Slates, hinting that Simpson is weary of spending tens of thousands on legal fees to fend off the Goldmans' claims.
But Fred Goldman won't bargain.
"I should get over the anger? And forget his murdering client took the life of my son? He must be out of his damn mind," the father said.
"No way in hell I'd enter into a business arrangement that benefits him [Simpson]. He belongs on a gurney with a needle in his arm to end his life," Goldman said.

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- A state judge has ordered O.J. Simpson to limit his spending to "ordinary and necessary living expenses" after the family of murder victim Ron Goldman raised concerns the former football star was shopping another book deal.

One of the men Brown Simpson dated after her divorce was one of O.J.'s rivals, Marcus Allen, running back for the Kansas City Chiefs.
http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/Simpson/Brown-Simpson.htm
I was wondering why she chose Marcus Allen to do. sounds kinda vicious imo

When it comes to the law and the legal system, blacks are far more realistic than whites, because whites don't see the things that we see happen, that cops will do.

You could have just made this up as far as I am concerned. Wouldn't be the first time. You are absolutely NOT credible and everyone knows it, unless it is your comrades, of course! Link, please ~ to substantiate that OJ actually said this! :no:

Maybe because he was a really, really nice looking guy AND no history of domestic abuse?
Besides, if you put orenthal and Marcus side by side, I bet even you would pick Marcus. IMO
