Sorry, I just saw your question.  Two weeks ago I was able to speak with someone.  Apparently they had not received the documents they had asked I fax them so I did that again, and this time someone from their office called me back saying that they had now received the two documents and they would take care of things and contact me again that very day.

As of today, I haven't heard a single peep from them. Nor have they debited my cc by the way!  What I have received though is a follow up email from mccormack sent by an Ann Hicks, para-legal giving me until august 19th to pay or else....

So this is where I am at now.  I have no idea what the attorney is doing, if anything.  They are not easy to get a hold off and don't show a lot of urgency in their dealings with me.  I have no idea as to whether I am actually wasting my time, waiting for them to do something or not.  I must admit it is disheartening.

I realize they are busy and all that, but I have dealt with lawyers before and have never been in a situation where I couldn't reach them.  I know they are known to a lot of folks on this site and I have no reason to doubt their efficacy but so far, I haven't seen it.

I really don't know what to think any more.  I don't want to alienate them by writing something that might be wrongly perceived and I do think they are my best and cheapest way forward in dealing with this ridiculous case.  At least I hope they are...

Can anyone offer an advice?  I have sent the document and payment required by CUOMO a week ago.  I have made several attempts to contact the office but every time got a voice mail.  I left numerous messages but have not heard from them at all.  The 21 days period in the original letter from mccormak is about to expire and I don't know what I should do next.

I am getting concerned that as of yet I have not heard back from the the CUOMO's office.  I sent them all the relevant information plus payment a week ago, and have left many messages to inquire as to whether they had indeed received said information but so far have not been contacted back.  Whenever I call them, all I get is a recorded message asking me to give the extension number I wish to leave a message for. Since I don't have that information, I am then taken to a general voice mail and it's there I leave the message.  But no one has called me back yet.

I will gladly partake in this community's efforts to stop this type of harassment.  In my case, I don't even own the website that had the offending thumb image, although I was the owner when the printout of the page was made.  The image (a thumbnail sized scale) was part of a template I bought in good faith.  How (if it is possible) can I protect myself from such action in the future?  I don't go about "borrowing" images I don't have copyrights licensing for but I have hired designers who have created templates with images and I am worried they have used images that might be similarly considered to be a copyright infringement by companies such as McCormack who are in this to make a quick buck!

Be that as it may, I have talked to someone at the Attorney Oscar Michelen office and my correspondence has now been found.  I am to fill an application form and pay.  grrr...

Thank you Robert.  I am not overly worried.  But at the end of the day, this individual, through legal shenanigans is forcing me to hire an attorney to represent me (albeit for a reduced price through this website).  It's an expense I really didn't need.

Hello,

Boy am I glad to have found this forum. I received a letter from McCormack giving me 21 days to respond etc...

I emailed it together with the required information to the email address of Attorney Oscar Michelen as per instructions found in this site.  I sent this last Friday (Jun 14th).  I still haven't heard from them.  I know there is at least the need for two business days, and it's barely passed but I am antsy with this ridiculous case hanging over my head.

I am also worried that my email go sent to a junk folder. 



Hopefully the attorney or someone in contact with him can give me some info as to what I should do next?

Thank you,

Jacques
