Quoted from TheLaw:

That's been evident for years.

Point.

#18352 3 years ago
Quoted from aztarac:

Kevin still has what, $800,000 of people's money?

I think the actual amount that Kevin took in on these projects was somewhere in the $200,000 range, but can't really recall now. Anyone know where Kevin is these days or what he is doing?

Thanks for searching and posting.

Wow, what a cluster F

Sounds like Keith is personally liable for Fife's attorney's fees after 8/17.

bank statements show differently

no idea on Kevin, but I spoke to federal agent about 2 months ago and it sounds like he came back on their radar and they were ISO.

As I understood, he likely had a side piece and additional mouths to feed in OH?, or somewhere else he is likely hiding out.
Still things happening behind the scenes to make sure he is either forced to hide for good or come clean and eventually pay things back.

Quoted from TheLaw:

One of the reasons I recently dropped out of this lawsuit a few months ago, it was going no wheres and he's asking for more money. Granted I know he put way too many hours into this case then he would ever recuperate money wise but it had to end at some point and I felt the time was right. The main thing is that Kevin can't show his face anywhere, we'll other then a public auction is all.......

So from what I read from that is Keith basically made unsubstantiated claims against Fife about the transfer of two games from Kulek to Fife. Keith told the court his claims were based on sworn testimony. When the court asked Keith to present evidence of this fraudulent transfer, Keith handed the court a 47 page printout of this thread.

And that’s how you make the big bucks that allows you to drive a Lamborghini. Well that and possibly snooping through other people’s papers when they’re not looking.
You can’t make this stuff up.

How many kids does this guy have?! He should have used some of that money and gotten himself fixed

#18360 3 years ago

He should have done quite a few things.
He didn't, and he won't.

I've never understood the phenomenon of men with either no real ability to support themselves, or questionable ability at best to be a family provider, always seeming to easily find any number of women that are apparently blind to this.

I have been away from this thread for 1 year. Can someone give me a 3 sentence summary. Is the guy on the lam or in jail yet?

Don't think so

Quoted from MrBally:

He's doing quite well according to facebook. If you don't have an account, set one up with a burner email and then just delete. Otherwise you'll always wonder what kind of car(s) he's buying with your (and the taxpayer's) money.

Added 93 days ago: I am retracting the above post.

is this how a retraction works?

I thought to retract you typically need to eat crow and admit you are wrong along with the statement?

Making claims like this are probably not the smartest idea when talking about a lawyer... esp one that obviously donated lots of time to chase this for the assistance of many in the community.

If what you say is true, then there is no way I will continue to use him in the civil case. No way I am going to use a lawyer that based on your claims just ran off with the money. Anyone in MI have suggestions of other lawyers to hire to take back up the civil case (they can now start back up since the stay is lifted).

Umm...what's he going to do? Print out Pinside threads and take them too a judge? how did that work for him

"1. Nathanson attached only one exhibit: a 47-page printout of an Internet forum where pinball enthusiasts discussed Kulek's bankruptcy. (ECF No. 3, PageID 139-156)."

I suggest that you stop throwing good money after bad. No matter what attorney you hire, they are not going to get anything back.

While I agree, I also say that -
Sometimes, it's more than just money.

Not trying to be a smart ass as I have been following since day one and you guys need to made whole, but do you feel the squeezing has produced any results so far?

#18378 3 years ago
Quoted from goingincirclez:

Nope, but never, EVER underestimate the positive effect of having a weight released emotionally and mentally.

#18379 3 years ago

To me the fact that Kevin never served any jail time for his scam tells me its dead in the water, even if you were to get a judgement on him you still would have to hire a collection agency to collect the money if he even had any. I was in on the preorder and payed the $250 but ended up bailing out on his list when he changed the parameters and asked for payment in full before mine was to be built.

#18380 3 years ago
Quoted from Roostking:

100%

A few people that gained actual money had judgments made against them in the bankruptcy and had to pay the money back.
Court found that the money taken by Kevin could not be forgotten forever as part of the bankruptcy so it is open for judgement and civil action.
Definitely forced money to be held/hidden by those that got it, so it inconvenienced them.
Seems to have caused additional stress to many that benefited from their ill gotten funds.
Caused those that bought games, parts, etc... post shit hit the fan stage to keep them in hiding rather than feed their egos over their spoils.
In effect it got the one full production game out of Tim Fife's hands and into the public where it can be seen and preserved.
It also has led to civil action, pause for bankruptcy, and now more interest from the criminal side. I think there is a good shot that the lack of taxes paid which came from discovery proceedings of bankruptcy will end up being the real thing to land some in jail for longer stints.

I actually feel really good about the squeeze thus far and there is more to come

Fair enough, and I get it... been there myself. I surely don't begrudge closure for those directly screwed by this a-hole. Just, sometimes that release only comes from finally tempering expectations to accept and be satisfied with "all you're likely to get" as closure. While reserving the right to take anything extra as welcome icing. (BTW I loooove icing)

Just qualify the remark or form it as a question. Let me provide you with examples.

I believe Hilton has unnatural relationships with hamsters.
In my opinion, Hilton has unnatural relationships with hamsters.
Does Hilton have unnatural relationships with hamsters?
Was hamster porn found on Hilton’s computer?

Can you imagine Keith watching fucking LA Law all night downing scotch and sodas preparing for the big showdown, just laughing.
Rolls in the court a little late, dont want to push Bull too hard on the ride, walking in and just slapping down 47 pages of limp pinside on the judge's pussy and yelling "DOMINO MOTHERFUCKER!!!"
☆allegedly☆ (<-- black pyramid )

No...just me? That happens.

Is it a thing to mix good scotch with soda?

I haven’t found a cheap scotch I didn’t like meat as of yet, but if I’m micro-leasing a Lambo, I’m drinking Johnny Walker Blue and not diluting it with even ice.

#18397 3 years ago
Quoted from desertT1:

Is it a good thing to show up to court with only 1 exhibit of which are print outs of pinside threads?

No idea on either; don't drink scotch or lawyer.
