Help! Broker doesnt want to pay load

Federal ? 3x ? love when people pull this crap out there ### lol

 

Um ####### look it up. God i love the whiney little truckstop cowboys on the trucking sites

 

You look it up it is civil not criminal case. you rarely get a jury in civil cases unless you pay for the jury and have a lawyer. And more than likely this will be handled in small claims court . You are just ignorant about the justice system have no idea what you are talking about .

 

Also, if HE wasnt being paid by the shipper or whomever for said reason he would be calling after not having an email responded to. I suspect he was paid but might be looking for ways not to pay you......

 

I don't think the broker is pulling something OP said the broker called him after 2 weeks looking for BOL . He would not have called him looking for BOL he would just wait for OP to call him then give him a line about BOL .I guess ?

 

15 posts and nobody suggested calling the US Marshalls yet?



Call the shipper and ask for a copy of the bills. You might have to pay a small fee. I will not admit to how I know that.

 

Actually a packing list cannot serve as a BOL because it is not a uniformed standard bill of lading according the the North American Standard. One thing you have to do when talking with a broker is ask if they accept copies or original bills of lading. If copies, no problem, but if originals, then a packing list is definitely not acceptable. You have no recourse unless you can produce a signed BOL.

 

I hope you are joking about US Marshall's...there has already bin enough stupid suggestions lol

 

Wideglide i'm just done with your ignorance after this.

but small claims courts are STATE courts not federal. Now.. off to do your reading.

 

What a dumb ### you are don't know the difference between civil and criminal .. no crime has bin done this is a contract dispute .. yes if you do a crime with a truck in intrastate commerce it goes to federal court because a federal law that is broken That is why you are confused and think this will go to federal court ..it wont ..again it is a civil matter no crime no federal court and if WILL more than likely go to small claims .. unless he is dope like you and wants to spend more on a lawyer file a bunch of paper work spend more than he will get lol
