The trial is currently set to begin for
former attorney Avalon Betts-Gaston on June 2, 2014.
The status hearing was held today setting
the above date but what I found interesting is that it appeared to me at least
that D'Mona Ross would once again be made the fall guy. (Per the Disbarment
Recommendation March 30, 2011, Avalon Betts-Gaston stated,
"Respondent (Avalon Betts-Gaston) had no experience with mortgage loans,
so she trusted Ross to handle that aspect of the business. Regarding IJCN (In
Jesus Christ's Name), Respondent trusted Ross, and Ross took advantage of her.
If Respondent knew what Ross was doing, she never would have gotten involved
with her.”)
Now as you all know I am not a lawyer
and I do not pretend to be. I look up things on the internet (with a gram of
salt) and I use Black's Law Dictionary to help me in my attempts to understand.
It just seems a little strange to me that a lawyer (at the time) who had her
own practice, wrote a book, represented people, was registered with a Title
Company didn't know what she was doing. I feel a little sorry (ok, just a
smidge) for D'Mona Ross; again, I don't know, I just think she may have hitched
her wagon to the wrong star!!
Look at the two pictures below and figure out which
one was the lawyer and which one is the other person. Yes it's true you can't
judge a book by it's cover but to me at least something just doesn't make a lot
of sense that a smart lawyer who called herself "the queen bee"
(that's on the internet) and is showing another company called "Real
Estate Services" (http://activerain.com/profile/avalonesq) didn't
know what she was doing! If this wasn't so sad and so harmful and so downright disgusting
to use the Name of Jesus (in case you all forgot what IJCN stands for its In
Jesus Christ’s Name) it would be hilarious but the victims now have to listen
to the intelligent former lawyer blame D’Mona Ross and maybe even others for
her actions.
