Sorry.
Common sense says... "someone might come looking for this extra $26K and change." I can see paying off the debt (and "she said" she called several times... that I am in doubt of), but at the least DONT buy more stuff until you change your name and move out of state! |

This story would be way cooler if she had donated the money to a Baptist charity.

She pissed it all away too now she's back to being poor. She lacks money management skillz

Yeah, a tip––that's what it was. Hey, if Geithner can't figure out the difference between gross and net pay, I can totally see how she thought $29K was a tip. |

No backsies...
Maybe this will teach them to be more careful when writing checks... |

Yep, I would like to know who she contacted and when. Though I'm thinking that contacting the catering department is a little weird, I'm sure a place like ND has an actual payroll/HR dept. |

She's dishonest and I would try to get my money back if it were me. Whether it made financial sense or not, there's more at play here. If somebody stole something small and simple from you, would you try to get it back? Better question - would you risk your life to keep someone from stealing your wallet? Dignity does not have a price. |

You should always check payroll before issuing the checks, and never make a mistake bigger than a final weeks pay.

Also judgements can only last 7 years if the judgement holder makes no effort to pay in 7 years. After that she can clear them. Seen it done by plenty of low-lifes. They also can't take the car. She is allowed one car in a judgement for transportation and they can't take it. Sorry. Notre Dame is just wasting their time and money. |

What kind of idiot do they have signing checks that did not catch this mistake? I can see maybe a $290 getting past as unlikely as that might even be, but a 29k mistake getting should get someone fired. Since it had to be someone high up though, I doubt anything happens.
Now to the lady, she knew better. |

Quoted: I disagree. There is no way that she will be able to fight a Notre Dame legal team. They will win in court and that is really what matters. Notre Dame is just wasting their time and money. It might not make a lot of financial sense in the long run (for ND) but she will lose out in the end...I predict that she will pay at least a portion of it back when she is faced with some of the alternatives. |

She's a dumbass. Stick it in a money market savings account until they ask for it.

Quoted: Did we not read the same story? she made attempts to contact them, three of them to be exact How is that being dishonest? She claims that she made attempts to contact them. Big difference. Further, if she made the attempts that she claims then she knew something was wrong. You are owed $29, you get a check for $29k and you only call 3 times? She is a dumbass and a thief. |

HaHaHa.... Your funny. What part of Judgement Proof do you misunderstand??? I can see you have no idea what that means. Let me tell you how this is going to work. ND will spend a bunch of money (>25K) chasing 29K that they will never recover. Have you ever tryed to put a Garnishment on someone under the poverty level. Let me clue you in. The court isn't allowed to. But, go on living your fairytale life thinking things in life are fair. |

How're they pissing the money away? I bet they have an in-house legal department they're already paying salaries on.

I understand the concept of being judgment proof just fine but don't see anything in the article to suggest that she is "under the poverty level" as you say. She doesn't work there anymore...that doesn't mean that she is not employed or doesn't earn an income. Further it doesn't say in what capacity she worked at the university. This could very well be a "blood from a stone" type situation, but there isn't much information in the article to be able to say one way or the other. |

She also has problems with the IRS if she didnt declare it as income.
You have to pay almost 50% in taxes for such windfalls. Basically its like gambling. If she didnt declare it, she would be liable for all sorts of taxes and penalties. |

I got an extra $5,000 on a paycheck one time. When I took the issue to payroll they said they'd have never found the issue and thanked me. It did look nice while it was in the account.

Notre Dame is just wasting their time and money. Not saying you're wrong...but that is what's wrong in this country today. Instead of principles, we replace our legal system with "law that's cost effective." Problem is, it ISN'T cost effective. It's why shit like health insurance is costly and the reason congress is butting in on shit they have no business in: because lawyers don't give a shit about the law: they twist it or ignore it to suit their needs. Not enough time and money to live a principled life these days. And we're reaping that, aren't we? Inflated cost of goods, cost of labor, cost of insurance. And people wonder why the frikkin Chinese are holding our short hairs. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm jumping off my soapbox and finding cover before AIMLESS sees my rant. |

Nortre Dame listed the payment on the check as a "gratuity" and not for "services".
They don't have a case. |

This story would be way cooler if she had donated the money to a Baptist charity. I think an anti-abortion charity would be a better way. It would make up for letting obama speak there despite the protests about his stance on abortion. |

I had several thousand dollars deposited into my account once. I called numerous times, went in and talked with tellers and the managers at least 5 times. No one could tell me anything about how it got in there. After a year [I left it off my balance] I called fair game and invested it.
It's been 14 years so there is nothing they can do now so I don't feel bad and they can do nothing anyways. The person they need to be going after and holding responsible is the idiot that wrote out the check. They should be standing in the unemployment line but I doubt they will actually fire the person responsible for the screw up. |
