need a LAWYER

Dear Lawyer

Here is a letter from Hugh J. Cameron RE (W. H. Goodwin & Co. Ltd., et al. ats. H.A.R. Construction Limited, et al. Court file# F/C/187/04) dated August 3, 2006 where Mr. Cameron is asking me to put in an amended Notice of Action with Statement of Claim attached to May 12, 2006. The only reason that I am doing this is for what went on in court, my original statement of claim there were mistakes in it. The first mistake was that I thought I received an intent to survey letter on December 20, 1996. By me going to get evidence that was only partially entered into court by Mr. Caldwell, I know now. (See evidence) I think by the new information I have that there should be further more amendments to this statement of claim as what went on at trial, them asking me to put a settlement offer to the respondent on March 8, 2005 (see copy of this letter). I believe this document was created because Judge Russell made a statement in court that the government did not have real appraisal reports. (See email with audio file) The facts are that these reports were submitted by the applicant instead of the respondent, why would this be? This settlement letter that my lawyers at trial talked me into signing only asking for my $21,000 back from the Goodwin matter, as you can see. Does this mean that I only can sew Goodwin for $21,000? Or can I sew him for my total life’s hold-up and damages from my whole life’s work? Which is now gone and the cost of being delayed from July 6, 1999 and right until the present time. There are also costs of all the running Mr. Goodwin had me doing from November 1998 until I received his draft report with a $70,000 plus bill. (See attachment) I have been told by several different lawyers that this is all that I would receive from Mr. Goodwin insurance company due to the circumstances that went on in court (file F/C/328/00). I would like for you to take a look at Examination for Discovery Volume II, September 11 and 12, 2001 and you can see that my lawyers were telling the government back then that I would be reimbursed for the Goodwin costs. This was not so. The lawyers went and put into the government a bill of their costs and totally left out my costs. They have been telling me since 2005 that they needed to keep my documents and receipts so they could put money in for my costs and they have still refused to give back my documentation to me. (See letter wrote and registered to them PP)

Getting back to this settlement document, which was created in court, I feel that I was the only one who had an appraisal report with the Babineau report. I should have been paid at least $165,000 for my losses which I was not. Not only time wasted here, but the cost of living everyday and not being able to move on with my life. The only reason I feel low balled because I was misrepresented and Judge Russell knew that I wouldn’t be able to afford to fight Mr. Goodwin. A lawyer already told me that the Goodwin matter is already cut and dry and I am just wasting my time. There was a conflict of interest of the Carter reports also he works for my own lawyers. I believe the best evidence should come into play with how many lots were left after the taking. (See attachment letter February 9, 2006 to Cameron) I believe this is an excuse for the lawyers to get off the conflict of interest when it comes to the applicant and going to the Law Society. I have also been told by another lawyer, that I should submit a bill of my costs to Mr. Eidt’s government solicitor to be heard in court. The facts are that Mr. Carter put my property in future residential development and he knew or should have known that the gravel pit and some of the equipment was sold in September 1997. The damages and costs losses started February 12, 1997 to the present day. There was also damage and costs incurred from March 1996. As you know I spent money on equipment repairs because my planning stage from March 1996 to be able to build houses for myself and sell. On or about April 7, 2000, Mr. Goodwin made up a second contract and would not tell us about the mistakes in his first draft report unless I signed the second contract and guaranteeing him $70,000 plus. On or about April 4, 2000, Mr. Raymond made me an offer of approximately $71,800 for the total property and also I would have to give him the only copy of Goodwin’s draft report, which is completely full of errors with misleading information in it. (Background report supplied to lawyers in February 2005) I think this Goodwin background report goes along with Mr. Carter’s theory, not to do a subdivision approach to value. Judge Russell in court should have had asked Mr. Carter when he was testifying that he turned in a report on January 23, 1998, as I see the government didn’t like this report and they sent him out to do 3 more reports, the same reports that showed up in the applicants documents in court. After this meeting on March 15, 2000 with Mr. Raymond, they already knew that Goodwin had me on a Mexican standoff, my lawyers weren’t doing anything to change this standoff and they decided to use Mr. Carter’s file notes instead of the 3 appraisal reports that would take place in court in 2005. Doesn’t Judge Russell have to make a decision on a report or does he make decisions on lies. You can see why this was done after the meeting of March 15, 2000. (After discovery of September 2001, they give me Mr. Carter’s file notes to critique. There were 30 pages of documentation given to both lawyers before the last discovery about Mr. Carter’s files and what he was up to.) See some attachments You can see Mr. Goodwin and my lawyers have me seized on or about February 2000 when Mr. Tucker arranged this meeting with the government. One page of these documents that we supplied at the meeting showed up in court as an exhibit. (See the total document and the one page exhibit out of it that showed up in court from the respondents)

I see now that Mr. Tucker has been a busy body and I believe that he really started working for Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Caldwell after the February 1st 2000 meeting in Moncton. I see now that he was trying to arrange this meeting with the government in January 2000. (See email) The fact is Mr. Tucker got a big raise in his disability package from being in the army in 2001. I think this might have something to do with him doing what he was doing for me. Mr. Tucker also works for Jody Carr, MLA, on his campaign.
It’s not like Jody Carr doesn’t know about my case. You should see all the documentation Mr. Tucker was sending to my lawyers. A document (dated November 25, 2002 emailed to Mr. Caldwell) Mr. Tucker sent to my lawyers, showed up in the court case (which was suppose to be confidential). Would Mr. Tucker be liable for some of these damages?

The biggest fact in this expropriation case was the way they took the property. The highest and best use for H.A.R.’s property would be 16 building lots in a subdivision loop with future access to other properties. I could have amended 1 lot at a time as I went along. Not just pay me for what suites their needs and the other conflicts of interests that were going on. It looks to me, reference to the McLeod case (14 page attachment) that the same people were involved in my case. It looks like to me where I am, there is no justice for a man’s whole life’s work, when I am still being deliberately delayed because under the court rules, I am not allowed to represent my own company (if this is so I am more likely to waste my time amending Notice of Action with Statement of Claim on the Goodwin matter). I was forced, from the advice of Mr. Caldwell, to reregister my company in 1998, around the same time he was writing Mr. Goodwin letters. I have never seen copies of these letters until later on in 2000. As you can see I was led to Mr. Goodwin by Mr. Caldwell. Mr. Goodwin was only hired on after I had a meeting with the government and quit my job working with Atcon (October 27, 1998, see email) because they broke the agreement with me because of trespassing and breech of my job title. This is the second job I lost with this land. How will I get receipts and files back from these lawyers? I feel I cannot put a complaint against the lawyers to the Law Society until I have these FILES and documents back because I fell they will make up internal memos and say they are in the file. Just like one that was made up like Heather Pugh’s which showed up as an exhibit in court. My own Lawyers was the ones to enter the exhibit with out my knowledge in court .you can see by the particular and Background report I did that there was no meeting on Dec.17 -1996 .(Whatever complaint I put into the Law Society, they would be able to cover their tracks and by keep my documents) I am not going to spend $12,000 worth of transcripts for the appeal because I feel the whole trial was staged, to let Mr. Goodwin get away for more or less stealing my life work and money. I believe the government knows exactly what is going on. This lawyer from Nova Scotia is made out to be an expert in expropriation cases is nothing but a front. I believe the government knew what I would take in February 1998 (See attachments) see Exhibit 14 from Discovery 2001 where Minister Sheldon Lee knew these lawyers were hooked up with Doug Young and MRDC. He could have let me move on down the road in February 19, 1998 without costing all this money to myself and the tax payers. (Lee knew I just sold my gravel pit and the property was no longer a future for myself. Look at the letters that Mr. Raymond is sending to the Law Society, (attachments) does he do this in every case that Mr. Caldwell has in New Brunswick? Under the Right Information Act, I would like to know this. I believe this highway project was another government run scandal. Mr. Raymond knew or should have known that Caldwell worked on the McLeod case started in 1993 and if he is allowed to work on the Mcleod case why would he be not allowed to work on my case. (I was told Mr. Caldwell had 18 cases when I hired him in December 1997.) Are the taxpayers deliberately paying Mr. Raymond to completely ruin my life. Also, after the discovery of 2001, I learned the government had paid a Fredericton appraisal firm over $10,000 for reports that are completely ridiculous. (Look at what took place at discovery in 2001, the lawyers said I was responsible for their bills in the discovery. If I was, then they should have not given me my money in November 2005.) If this wasn’t deliberately done, tell me why Mr. Raymond or Mr. Leblanc were offering me $31,000 before Carter did his reports and only sent me a statutory offer after the reports were done and only paying me $20,726. I have never accepted the cheque for the company’s property (see attachment) (Judge Russell is still paying me the same amount, see Judge Russell’s decision)
Mr. Goodwin has already received $21,000 for misleading draft report which I still don’t know to this day what criteria it’s in. I don’t think it’s a sub division approach like the Babineau report that we used in court before and after approach to value. It is no wheres similar to Mr. Babineau’s report (subdivision approach). This is the only way I can see where you can put market value on the lots. There would be no land developer cutting a pie shaped piece off the property and selling it for $2,700. Would this be the highest and best use? The taking of the property from Mr. Goodwin is $5,750, but he wanted me to guarantee him $70,000 (see attachment page 13 also attached is Mr. Goodwin’s statement). The extra money that I was paid in court looks awfully similar of what Mr. Goodwin has on page 13 of his report (see attachment). If you can look at the files my lawyers have, you can see they and DOT employees made Judge Russell’s decision for him back in 1998 around August because there are letters I have seen that Mr. Caldwell sent an internal memo to John Logan in Saint John and to Mr. Daley (who is only a CRA and wouldn’t be able to do an appraisal report for me anyway). Is there any chance that I could start a brand new federal court case against the Province of NB, Appraisal Association, the Ombudsman office, MRDC, and Paterson Palmer and all the appraisers involved? I feel there is no sense for me to go through an appeal, especially when the whole deck looks like it was stacked from the beginning and also if this could be done, I would sooner go this route, but I also think you should be able to squeeze $165,000 from the Goodwin insurance company and let me get on with my life. Look at what John Logan said my claims were worth on October 16, 2000. (See attachment) This attachment was also sent to Minister Brad Green. (fax proof ) Logan must know what he’s talking about because the government hired him. (Do you see where you might be able to get $165,000 for me from Goodwin’s insurance company with help from the justice department) Or tell me how much it would cost to amend my statement of claim so I can carry on and get my life’s net worth back. Is there any chance that I can get the appeal court to throw away the decision of Judge Russell because it is not based on the law. I would think he would have to go by the appraisal report and not hear say. (Highest and best use) Can I bring a law suit and claim against Mr. Raymond and Heather Pugh for deliberately lying in court? Mr. Raymond testified in court that he seen a blacked out copy of Mr. Goodwin’s report on April 4, 2000 which is a total lie. (See April 4, 2000 letter where Mr. Raymond offered me $71,800) What relevance did this have in the case if I wasn’t using Mr. Goodwin. Remember my lawyers were the ones who put this internal memo of Heather Pugh’s in court. If I didn’t know what plan 82 was until March 2005, how would Mr. Goodwin know about plan 82 in his report that I received July 1999. (If you look at page 90 of this report, see attachment) Look at the discovery of 2001 and the government list of documents, you can see it was set up from the beginning. I will send you the evidence used in court and Mr. Caldwell didn’t do anything about it. Remember I have over 300 pictures from the start of all of this. One exhibit that was entered in court, by the respondent is one page out of a document that Rex Tucker sent to John Logan confidentially when we were critiquing Mr. Goodwin’s draft appraisal report and finding the errors and looking at the logic for such a bad report. This document that Mr. Tucker made over is similar to the same document that I sent to John Logan after I retrieved all the quotes, the same ones that Mr. Goodwin had. When I looked at the theory of Goodwin’s report in 1999, it only worked out to $13,000 per house and lot. Rex Tucker upgraded it in January February or March of 2000 and sent it to my lawyers confidentially, which ended up as an exhibit in court. (See exhibit)

What I need from you
· Bring a motion, so I can represent myself and company on the Goodwin matter and also on the appeal matter.
· Put a bill of my costs under the Expropriation Act, so it can be taxed. As well what the lawyers put in.
· How am I going to get my files back from Paterson Palmer so I can continue on, do I go to the Law Society now?
· Will you help me amend my statement of claim to Hugh Cameron so he won’t have my case withdrawn

Please call me right away!

Thank You,














Re: W.H. Goodwin & Co. Ltd., et al. ats. H.A.R. Construction Limited, et al. Court File No. F/C/187/04I am still trying to retain a lawyer and I believe with advice from a different lawyer that I should be making further amendments to the Notice of Action With Statement of Claim.In reference to Goodwin’s response to the NB Association of Real Estate Appraisers at 403 Regent Street, Attn: Susan MacKenzie, on page 7, at the meeting of February 1, 2000, WHG agreed to produce the Complete Appraisal in the Self Contained Format. This is not the type of appraisal he told me he would be doing for me on November 17, 1998. He said he would be doing a sub-division approach to value. Here are 3 pages from Mr. Babineau’s report with 6 different methods of evaluation/ vacant land. The biggest thing about Goodwin’s draft report was that I didn’t understand what method he was using, it seemed to have several methods used in his report. If you don’t understand a report, you shouldn’t have to use it. At the start of Mr. Goodwin’s report, November 17, 1998, Mr. Goodwin gave me instructions to get him different quotations from other contractors and myself. He also told me he would be using me to build the streets as a contractor in a before and after scenario. On or about February 2, 1999, I sent a list of 4 or 5 pages of quotes and price to contract everything out. I saw the lot to be worth $20,796 for a bare lot in my location of my property. I had 2 survey lots and 16 more potential lots for a total of 18 lots, in the bank already paid for to start building houses until February 12, 1997, it became obvious that I would be expropriated. I know now that there is a conflict of interest between my lawyer, Mr. Caldwell, and Mr. Carter. The appraisal board would not send me a copy of Goodwin’s defense of June 11, 2004, until January 25, 2005.You know by now I have in my possession the second draft of Mr. Goodwin’s which I received March 3, 2005, that says now the value of the second report is worth $470,000. This is why I fell I am going to have to make more amendments to my Statement of Claim and Action. It is ludicrous, that Mr. Babineau did a report that we used in court and only charged me $7,000 compared to Mr. Goodwin who all I ready paid $21,000 and want me toguarantee him $70,000 plus. If you take a look at the decision that came down June 3, 2005 of Judge Russell, how much money I have already paid out in appraisal fees and all the hold up that was caused by the government, the appraisal board and my own lawyers, it looks like I bought this land so others could make money off it. I am waiting to see how much money I will receive back on the taxing of the lawyers bill which has not went to court yet, as far as I know. I also don’t know what Judge Russell’s decision was made on because it wasn’t made on Mr. Babineau’s report and I don’t think it was made on the three reports the government had. When I find this information out, I will be getting back to you. This is why I am seeking a lawyer’s assistance. The lawyers I have talked to, seem to tell me I am just wasting my time. I am also seeking my files back from my lawyers, which they refuse to give me.
