Alleged issues effecting Dr. Tims

[Submerge]

The American Cichlid Association has a Trust managed by a board of 9 elected members of which Dr. Tim was one. They seem like a larger national organization rather than a local club.

If it was a salt club I’d understand. But cichlids? No way.


J/k here’s the tank over my shoulder rn

Let the hunger games begin. I’ve got tiny boxing gloves sewn up that slide over the pectorals so they can’t actually hurt each other.

Its all fun and games when they are young. As they mature they are very different animals.

Mmkay, sorry for the thread drift.

Maybe if the cichlid club had money to spend they could have warned me not to get them because they are jerks as adults. There back on track!

I went and read the summary. I’m curious why it’s civil and not criminal. Leads me to wonder if they were also investors. If this is theft, it’s criminal and can then be civil depending on verdict, judgements, etc. The treasurer for a local bowling league embezzled $9k, went to jail and had to pay resto. Considering the filed civil and it isn’t criminal has me pausing judgement just yet.

Might be because with the amount of money that is alleged to be taken it's an existential threat to the organization, and this might be the quickest and surest way to get the money back. Criminal trials often take longer and the burden of proof is much higher than civil suits.

I don't know what they do exactly, but I think an organization that budgeted assuming they had 16X more money in the bank than they actually did would be in dire financial straits.

That is interesting. I have seen this same situation in another fish club mentioned and they didnt press criminal charges either. Ultimately that is up to the plaintiff if they wish to persue civil or criminal charges. Will be interesting to see what pans out.

This really is interesting. I’m kinda curious on the legal side of this. I’m just glad this wasn’t the piggy bank to fund lobbyists to break down those bans in Hawaii. How nuts would that have been.

Why is the cichlid in my planted tank beating up on all the other fish in the tank now. It’s as if some put the Bat (cichlid) symbol up in the air. “CICHLIDS UNITE…”.

Please remember that a lawsuit against someone is not proof that they committed wrongdoing. Let’s be fair and let the facts and court speak. Oh and before anyone says anything….no they are not a sponsor here so I’m not trying to protect anyone.

agreed. Its great gossip but that is all it is at this point. Innocent until proven guilty. A famous political figure once said, after being vindicated," where do I go to get my reputation back?"
