Mark Gillum Managed to avoid eviction for over a year and ran out on me owing me $4700 and left a trashed house Marietta Georgia

I am the subject of this report and although I have been vindicated by the courts and my claims legally upheld, this despicable individual felt the need to falsely make claims, so I will respond. Any claims put forth by me can be independently verified and all one needs to do is follow the procedure here on this site to reach me for said verification. It will be provided as requested as needed by any legal or law enforcement entity.

The landlord in question, Ms. Lois Fox, rented a home to us and stragically both misrepresented the status of her ownership, and the fact that she had tried the same type of stunts with the previous renters of the home. After we had been in the home several months, notices began to appear from the bank/finance company (Citimortgage) for forclosure. We learned from the bank that this was not the first time this had occurred with Ms. Fox.

I shrug off the insinuation that there was no cancer. I think a mastectomy, several rounds of chemotherapy, radiation therapy,hormone therapy, and any number of physicians will gladly attest to any medical questions. Again, this is readily available if needed. There were late payments made because of the situation, but nothing nearly as egregious as Ms. Fox states and again, all receipts and deposit slips are available upon request.

In making the attempt to pay rent due, I paid Ms. Fox a lump sum to be applied toward the current rent as we had an injunction from the Court and subsequent agreement and arrangements from Ms. Fox to catch up any past due amount. She obviously was NOT expecting this as she simultaneously began legal procedures for eviction. This was after a lump sum payment of over $2000.00 with the instructions it be applied to current charges with any balance to follow. She chose to misrepresent her situation to the court in an effort to remove me and in my opinon, rent at a higher price than in my lease.

She then came to court claiming she was owed even more, which was not the case or the way I sent the funds, and I have the actual letters and documentation sent her. What probably shcked her more, she learned later, that to pursue the matter, I made full payment to the Court of every penny she had demanded. Any lawyer will tell you in order to pursue a case, any disputed funds have to be rendered UP FRONT.

I continued to make payment each month - not to Ms. Fox, but directly to the Court. After several more appearances and finally having a judge listen to both sides of the story in open court, the Court determined there was no basis to her claims and demands because from Day 1 I had paid all the funds into the Court registry.

i will not dignify her malicious and angry claims and retorts other than to say I have just learned of this on Ripoff and rebutted to keep the record straight. Her attitude is what happens when you lose in Court with a team of lawyers to a single, determined individual who would not be taken advantage of. Any statements or claims made by me can be fully documented and as stated provided to any relevant party. Lois, you lied and tried to evict us, and you lost, big time. Deal with it, live with it. Keep lying, and I will be there every step of the way to correct the record. You lied when I paid you AND YOU TRIED TO PLAY THE VICTIM IN COURT AND MISREPRESENT THERE TOO. IT DIDN'T WORK. GET OVER IT AND GET A LIFE. As you so succinctly stated, I hope others read this so you cannot do it again.
