Maybe she won the case.
CARA HONIGSFELD VS. ADAM JUDD
She did...
...but now she's got to collect the money....

As someone who also lost alot of money to Dave/Adam
( most likely more than anyone else on this forum) I too have tried hard
to get my money back (and that of others), and have been in
fairly regular contact with Cara.
Her case had nothing to do with arcade parts but Dave/Adam used
RAM Controls as a "capital venture investment opportunity" to steal a significant
amount of money from her. More the enough for her to justify to expense
of getting lawyers, detectives, etc...
In my case, the legal costs would have quickly exceeded the money owed to me,
and the fact than I'm 3000 miles away (in another country) made it even less possible.
At one point, I had the help of prominent US lawyer, who was also on this board,
but that effort failed when his time became too valuable for this case.
I tried several times to find legal counsel willing to work for a percentage of winnings,
but found no takers despite the fact that is was a slam-dunk case.
I even tried a collection agency, ... but no dice...
[ BTW, I want to extend a BIG Thank You to many many members of this board
who provided me with help and info in this matter, but sadly without the funds (and proximity) to launch a proper legal campaign, there was very little I could do,
so I've very grudgingly gave-up on ever seeing my money again ]

From what I know from Cara, she spent two years, and several thousands of dollars
to track Dave/Adam down (hired a detective) , serve him with court papers,
went to trial, where she won a default judgement because he never showed up,
and is now in the process of trying to collect from him.
During this time, his "colleague" Jim Boomquist tried to liquidate the assets
of RAM Controls, to compensate himself for the money he claims Dave/Adam owed him.
Jim was also named in Cara's legal challenge,
but I don't know what judgement came of that.

So although I'll likely never see my money again,
I take solace in knowing Dave/Adam is going to have "some" pain
in having to re-imburse Cara
Jail would be better, but garnished wages is a good start...
