The Chattanoogan - Opinion - October 30, 2009
Periodically and for over three or more years now Maximus has either sent letters or actual process servers from the sheriff's office looking for someone who doesn't live at my address. I've called and called in an attempt to inform them the individual they're looking for does not live at that address. They promise to take my address off the file, the encounters stop temporarily then start back up again.
It's gone beyond the point of simply being annoying to a feeling of being of harassed by Maximus. Do they not know that people actually move? That old files with old addresses are just that old, and the individual(s) do or no longer reside at the address they may have on file?
Each time the clerks have been kind, the process server who came by yesterday had to listen to my frustration--after all, it's not his fault. He's given a name and address and he's just doing his job. But what about the 'collateral damage' in all this. The innocent caught in the middle?
The clerk I spoke with yesterday was nice and said she'd make a note of it, again. But there's no guarantee at some future date it won't happen again.

Lawsuit alleges NM broker evading damage suit
By BARRY MASSEY (AP) – Oct 22, 2009
SANTA FE, N.M. — A former investment officer for a state educational pension fund says a politically connected Santa Fe broker and his father are dodging a whistleblower lawsuit alleging improper political pressures on investment decisions.
Marc Correra, and his father, Anthony Correra, are defendants in a lawsuit brought by Frank Foy earlier this year seeking to recover money on behalf of the state for losses on pension fund investments.
Foy's lawyer, Victor Marshall, said Thursday the Correras have not been served with a summons about the lawsuit despite efforts to locate them since May.
In a court filing, Marshall said "Marc Correra has disappeared" and apparently has left the country. It also said Anthony Correra's house in Albuquerque "appears to be deserted" and that "it is not known whether Anthony Correra has left the United States."
