It's all pretty clear cut Lanshark. You don't pay the NAL and challenge it
in district court, or pay it, then go the appeal court route. If you read
the whole quoted section that's what the court says, in legal speak, near
the end.

Have you ever gotten a NAL? Have you sent back the
paperwork to the FCC that goes with the NAL?
If the answer is no, then you don't know. If it's yes
then you know that you have to give them, Full name,
Social Security #, employment info, assets info etc etc.
As I have said in previous posts, I know two people
that got them, both were found guilty, though they filed
motions with the commission saying they weren't. They
then were told that if they didn't pay, their wages would
be garnished, liens on their houses. They were told by
the FCC & a lawyer (They both had different lawyers)
that was the only way or sue them in Federal court.
Say what you want, but you can't just say "I don't
agree, I want a trial" They start collecting the fine right
away when the commission says you are guilty.

Anyway the original point made by several people was you can't challenge a
NAL in court. I think that myth has been dispelled. You raised another
issue, is it really worth the cost? You might have a point there. I guess
it
all depends on the about of the NAL. a couple of grand maybe not, but for
$10K yeah I think it would if one feels confident they have a strong case.

Same point, spend $9,000.00 on a lawyer, for a $10,000.00
fine? One of the persons I know was fined $30,000.00
plus for his NAL, his lawyer told him to pay the fine or make
arrangements for payments, he would be spending close to that to sue the
government to reduce fines. You saw above what they did to him.


On a side point who were you replying to in regards to a post about a
radio
and refering to them using my name? I never mentioned anything about a
radio, just a comment about you getting a NAL for first hand experience. I
think you got me confused with somebody else.

Not really, I may have read into this more than what you meant:
"All I can figure out is you want to believe this so you can justifiy FCC
regulation violations in your own mind, feel better about it, and excuse
others for being held accountable."

But the way accusations fly in here, I figured you were saying
I would feel better about operating a linear or export radio.
