Sliced: Perfect... considering my father who is a MS is attending this
Follow my links in my post above - the OP video is ONLY being considered and viewed by ELDERS - NOT by Ministerial Servants.

For context... this video is from the current Kingdom Ministry School (KMS 2018) for Elders.
It is from Item 9: "Exercise Balance When Evaluating Regular Pioneers"
i believe that i have a good cause to sue the organization.
but i know that they have crafted themselves a legal loophole infinite loop.
so i was thinking that i should just sue the congregation that i know fucked me over.
LostGeneration: Sue them for what? Are you in the USA or elsewhere?
FWIW there's his 4,500 word introduction here:

I understand that the 'legacies' listed for Plymouth St Budeaux in 2012, of £360,000.00, and in 2013, of £140,000.00 where from the sale of KH property, and NOT legacies, as per the OP chart.

carla: Will the wt still have to pay the 4000.00 a day fine or does that go away with the settlement? sorry if I missed it.
different court case
*** due to formatting issues when posting, i will be posting stats as a separate replies to this thread ***.
stats as of january 13, 2018. .
england and wales: 1,325 congregations.
freddo: Charity Commission rules (I believe) only say accounts have to be submitted and made public if INCOME exceeds £25,000 (used to be £10,000) in any one year.
Yeah, appears that accounts only need to be submitted and made public in the financial years that INCOME exceeds the threshold.
There is no reporting threshold for SPENDING?
That's kinda interesting, partly because I'd have thought in terms of 'charity-use' - outgoings are more important (what is it spend on?) than income (where did it come from?)
If you look at the Accounts summary for Wrexham East - they needed to make public accounts in 2014 as INCOME over threshold, but they did NOT need to make public accounts the following year in 2015 as their INCOME was under the threshold even though SPENDING was over £100,000 that year.
there are lawyers putting out 'help-guides' for abuse victims now.
this one is from canada.
there needs to be a lot more.. https://gallery.mailchimp.com/9a31d14c02dcc6195d602082d/files/76_mcki_breaking_the_silence_ebook.pdf?utm_source=breaking+the+silence&utm_campaign=b739738c9d-&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_55742b1332-b739738c9d-242182841.
