                                           UPDATES


 Is my wish to have the court to know that S-G Owners Association sent me the assessment for
2018 for the amount of 915.00 of which was paid before the due date.

 In addition of the previous balance that was granted to me in the Civil Court (10,501.60
plus Interest of 22.03) The SG Owners Association keeps adding numbers to a case that is
now in the Court of Appeals First District.

I FEEL HARRASED BY THE S-G ASSOCIATION AND THEIR ATTORNEYS AND
SCARED. Since May of 2015 when I contacted the association to pay my bill that was late
three months, the rejected my payment and sent my bill to their Attorney, with all types of
fees, my health has been affected in many ways, to the point that I had to seek for
professional help. I am a single mother, I go to work every day to provide for my two
children with special needs, I don't feel secure in my own house, I noticed a couple times
that a guy taking pictures of my house, driving a black truck stops for seconds in front of
my property, takes pictures and leave.

 THEY CONTINUSLY KEEP SENDING ME LETTERS WITH CHARGES OF
ANYTHING, I WAS TOLD THAT THE SHOULD NOT BE CONTACTING WHILE
THE CASE IS BEEN HANDLING AT COURT.

 The association sent me a bill that WAS PAID ON TIME as they requested, 2018 IS NOT
BEEN DICUSED OR IT SHOUL D BE ADDED TO THE CASE.

AGAIN, the S-G Association is rejecting my payments exactly like the beginning of this
case; their attorney sent me a letter requesting me to accept back the 2018 payment. Which
I didn't accept for the fact that 2018 is should not be part of the case, I received a bill along
with an envelope to send the payment, with a due date.
                                 Case#01-17-00258-CV


Their attorney said in his letter that they will NOT ACCEPT PARCIAL PAYMENTS, I am
not quite sure what do they want; there was not partial payment of 2018 Assessment, I paid it
In FULL.


The S-G Association SENT me a letter with a picture of a house that is NOT MY
PROPERTY Requesting and giving me 10 days to clean up my the property, THREATING
ME TO CHARGE ME100.00 / FEE FOR EA DAY AFTER THE DUE DATE DAY IF I
DON'T CLEANED UP

My property is BEEN KEEPT IN GOOD CONDITIOS, FRONT YARD, BACK YARD, and I
HAVE SOMEONE WHO KEEPS MY GRASS, LANDSCAPED.

 I AM ASKING THE COURT TO HELP ME, AND DO NOT LET THIS CASE TO
CONTINUE SCALATING ANYMORE, WHEN I PURCHASE THE PROPERTY TO HAVE
A DECENT PLACE TO RAISED MY CHILDREN, I WAS LOOKING FOR CLEAN AND
SAFETY AREA, PULLED MYSELF TO SCHOOL TO EARN A 2 YEARS DIPLOMA IN
ORDER TO PROVIDE, AND DO NOT EVER HAVE TO ASK FOR WELFARE, I MAKE NO
MORE THAN 2,700 A MONTH TO PAY MI MORTGAGE, CAR PAYMENTS, AND
ADDITIONAL BILLS.




I am adding copies of the letter from the Attorneys.

A copy of the check paid in full with the 2018 assessment,

A copy of the fees added to my 2018 assessment with the case grated in 2017 by the
Honorable George Barstone.

A copy of a letter from the association of the wrong property, and my name and address in
it, and fees,

A copy of a letter where they sent to the Credit Bureau to damage my credit with the case
that was grated to me the First Civil Court.
