I also texted her & I told her she was a free loader an she owed me $110. & she can't expect everyone to keep her up, well I guess she followed thru with her threat my attorney called yesterday & told me w/c had someone call mid Dec 2009 and claim I laid on floor an started screaming, of course this is not true, but now I have to go for some sorta hearing what can I expect an will the disgruntled text's from her help me any??

The ole saying goes, if it aint true, you never have nothing to worry about.
You have the text messages. Your attorney will bust her chops and show she was doing this because she wishes to get even with you.
Here is what you ask yourself. Was she there when you were injured? Did she she you lay on floor and scream? Can she really prove you did the things she claims?
No, okay so your worring and why?

You'll be Fine!! Your Attorney will Use Trigger Questions to bring Her Out if She's Lying, and the Judges aren't Naive!! I have had to Endure 15 Hearings, Testified at 12, and I have another Coming in Feb.! We have Discredited Dr.'s and Tests Galore, so a Simple Disgruntled Family Member will be a Walk in the Park for Your Attorney!!

Relax; If everything you have said is true, what's the worry? Most of our worries never come true.
Relax, Drink a coke or whatever and get well. This is just a smoke screen.

I have seen these things before. I have seen them in the work place where the employer got people to make these kind of stories up. I was witness to one, and helped a guy win his case also. After that, the two people that made the lies up, found it very uncomfortable to work there anymore. In fact, the story got out to other shops, and these guy's really had to switch trades and make way less money. One of them called me, and said it was the biggest mistake they ever made in their life. So, it will come back and bite them in the end.
