There is adideo which describes my situation (http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-767144) The Gonzalez family currently own the master franchise for Century 21 and Sotheby's for Central America. Century 21 in a communication asserted that a son (Carlos Gonzalez Jimenez) cannot be held responnsible for his father's actions. When I was first sued in regard to this property it was the firm of Carlos Gonzalez that sued me. I have been in court for years defending myself andtrying to get access to our legally titled property. I encloese relevant press sories ablout my nightmare,
I have been accused of two criminal offenese. The first was Armed Agression which I finally was absolves of. The second was an accusation of criminal fraud together with my lawyer, Horacio mejias Potuguez. We were found innocent three times and finally last week our accuser paid a $28,000 fine for falsley accusing us of that crime. I have been acquitted twice of criminal libel (see attached URLL) for the video about the case. The US Enbasshy appears powerless to help me. The purpose of the criminal charges was to "freeze" the real issue that of the land which is a Civil case. Incidentally I continue to pay taxes on the property I am legall forbidden to enter, for If I do not do so the local government informs me it will be put up for auction.
It is ironic that Mr. Gonzalez' family own Century 21 and Stewart Title Company, two well known real estate connected firms and also are involed in a huge land theft case involving valuable property. One of the accusations I fuffer is that i have brought suffering and dishonor to Mr. Gonzalez' chuldren. He fails to mention that it is his son's law firm that initiated an aggressive lawsuit against me to claim our proprtyunder the law of adverse possession. It was only when we responded in the prescribed time period that criminal actions were brought against me. we still have had no hearing on the reall issue that of the land. For your information Mr. Gonzlez was let go as a director of CitiBank and also from the borard of Earth university after we filed a complaint as to his ethical lapses.
I worked for Century 21 HomeStars for just a little over a m84nth and though I was doing a great job; I have Attention Deficit Disorder and I had discussed that with the Operations Manager Brenda, prior to my start. I explained sometimes I make mistakes, and when I do, please let me know so that I can correct them. I used to "List" properties, while answering a phone that didn't stop ringing and completing a multitude of other tasks at one time. I made a few spelling errors, rather than allowing me to correct them, they fired me but after letting me work a half day and after I had confronted them about a shortage from my last pay check. Rather than bringing the errors to my attention, other staff new about it, and they all talked in the office as if I was there, "what kind of idiot is she," "how dumb can you be," and so on, right in front of me. Then after subject to all of that, I was terminated, after reminding that everyone does make mistakes, and sometimes, I do get confused - it goes hand-in-hand with having A.D.D., and I am willing to correct when I do. However not only did they make me feel awful about what I had done, they allowed their employees to criticize me and publicly humiliate me. Then they refused to pay me out for money owed from my "one a month" pay - which I didn't agree to, and was told would be adjusted to bi-weekly.
I contacted Brenda Mandel the office manager regarding my paycheck and was told that if I contacted her again it would be harassment; and that I should only send mail certified. So you fired me and now you're not going to pay me. I am owed $84 from prior weeks’ pay and $204.00 for a combined total of $288 - this obviously isn't going to break their bank since they claim to have almost 300 agents.
