So what aren't you telling us? Details please. Obviously, they had some leverage on you, and when you got out of jail, you used whatever leverage you had to get your car back. Is this why you won't tell us what casino this happened at?

I would agree to pay the bill and apologize for the trouble I've caused. IC, it's Las Vegas. You don't want to get into fight with management at some of those places. You just don't. A good attorney would be Oscar Goodman.

it didnt happen at a hotel and the car was stolen and subsequently found at an apartment complex 5 miles away about 6 hours after i reported it stolen which was Friday morning... and NO there will be absolutely no apologies to these bucolic civil servants who walk around like rocks stars thinking they can act as judge and jury...

thats what is crazy about this ...there are no more details ...i used no leverage to get my car back other than filing a police report...could it be that the car was taken to irritate me????? perhaps....why wasnt an s-500 with 8k in wheels gutted out??? the only wheel they got was the one in the trunk...

i was placed under arrest 14 minutes after the receipt was issued which showed the balance paid in full and authorized by my credit card company...i just refused to sign the bill so i could later dispute it

so how can you be arrested for grand larceny when you have a receipt stateing "no balance due"...

its complete incompetance on the police department...civil rights violation, and outright theft on the part of da POLICE

I had that happen to me one night in a bar about 20 years ago. The best I could figure is that they were charging all kinds of drinks to my tab. I signed the tab that night...just thinking that it seems kinda high. But the next day, the more I thought about it, the more upset I got....so I went back, talked to the manager. He dug up the tab, looked over the drinks. There were drinks on there I had never heard of. He could have gone any direction with it I suppose, but he took the high road, gave me a bar credit. Didn't refund my credit card, but gave the bar credit. Bad part of it was, I never went back to use the credit. :lol: I almost always pay cash for the last 20 years. IT

IT in hind sight i should have politely taken the reciept and left but it has happened so frequently in the last 6 months that i blew a gasket.

last year i signed a 2300 bar tab for a group of us at the hard rock...i tipped the waitress 200 bones...when the bill came the tab was 3000k. the waitress took a duplicate reciept added a 700 tip and misspelled my name for the signature...

capital one ate the tip on that one...i made sure i grabbed the receipt on this go around...

my adjuster for my insurance company said the fraud in Vegas is off the charts right now...no wonder we lead the nation in foreclosures and credit card delinquinces (sic)

nothing but grifters and charlatans

OK.

Come to Tulsa.

We went to the Laughing Wench Saturday night.
Had fish & Chips, Guinness, more Guinness, went out on the deck to visit and drank more Guinness for 5 hours.
Wifey and I had a $60 bill.

I think the bartender was drinking too. :lol:

We even met a cajun there.
