In MA; AI, I sent the following message to a vendor: Not only did I not order this latest package but the last package was supposed to have four * LB packages. All of the packages were * oz and less. I have the proof. Please refund my money immediately. I do not want to have to go to the Better Business Bureau or any other consumer protection program. They claim that the auto shipped product Is final and will not return the unauthorized payment. Can you draft a response to this vendor?
Hi ****, here's a draft response you can send to the vendor:
---
Subject: Unauthorized Shipment and Incorrect Product Weight
Dear [Vendor's Name],
I am writing to address a significant issue with my recent order. Despite my previous communication, I received an auto-shipped package which I did not authorize. Additionally, the last package I received was supposed to contain four * LB packages, but all of them weighed * oz or less.
I have documented proof of these discrepancies and request an immediate refund for the unauthorized shipment and the incorrect product weights. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will be compelled to escalate the issue to the Better Business Bureau and other consumer protection agencies.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
****

- Connecticut Department of Banking: They regulate financial institutions and enforce banking laws.

In dealing with federal courts their emphasis is always going to be on Constitutional violations. Also I understand that newly Introduced violations are very important. Therefore, please identify and emphasize each constitutional violation. Under new information, does the fact that there is no recorded approval of any sales or assignments by the CA northern bankruptcy court during the original lenders filed Case on January * * which terminated November *, *, and does that raise the priority of addressing that concern. Should I also mention that the Massachusetts supreme judicial court carved out a special classification in order to deny me my 14th amendment, ” no one should have to pay for justice” as they ignored the “Indigent Court Cost Law” in warring against the Constitution?
Constitutional Violations to Emphasize:
- 14th Amendment (Due Process Clause): Denial of your right to fair legal proceedings by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, ignoring the "Indigent Court Cost Law."
- 7th Amendment: Right to a jury trial in civil cases could be implicated if the case involves more than $*.
- 5th Amendment (Takings Clause): If applicable, argue that the government took your property without just compensation.
- 14th Amendment (Due Process Clause): Denial of your right to fair legal proceedings by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, ignoring the "Indigent Court Cost Law."
- 7th Amendment: Right to a jury trial in civil cases could be implicated if the case involves more than $*.
- 5th Amendment (Takings Clause): If applicable, argue that the government took your property without just compensation.
Priority of Addressing New Information:
- Bankruptcy Court Approval Absence: Highlight the lack of recorded approval of sales or assignments by the CA Northern Bankruptcy Court. This can question the legitimacy of the debt and should be prioritized.
- Bankruptcy Court Approval Absence: Highlight the lack of recorded approval of sales or assignments by the CA Northern Bankruptcy Court. This can question the legitimacy of the debt and should be prioritized.

- Potential 7th and 5th Amendment Violations: If relevant, mention these to strengthen your argument.
*. Bankruptcy Approval Absence:
