The questions regarding the statue of limitations would be best answered by
PIXIE's Lawyer. Pixie ask him and let us know
what he says.
Remember that a civil lawsuit is much different than a criminal investigation in that the burden of proof is not necessarily on us, but rather on cedu to prove that our allegations are untrue, and also to provide an alterior explanation as to why we are really suing (meaning they would have to convince the judge that we are suing them for the wrong reasons).
Documentationm is a problem, as most of us had no way of documenting the abuses that we endured at cedu. However, please remember that cedu has already been sued by several former students and either settled out of court or had judgements made against them.
(Pixie) If your lawyer intends to sue on similair grounds as to the lawsuits that cedu already lost (as I believe he would), then these past judgements and/or settlements will add significant weight to your claims.
Pixie, it will help us all if you give us a detailed explanation for the basis of your
lawsuit, as well as identify exactly what kind of information you are looking for. It will be much easier for all of us to help you, once we have more facts.
Other than that, my advice would be to line up as many witnesses as possible. The more mouths we have telling the same story, the greater the chances that our story will be believed. It also wouldn't hurt if we could get a few of the former cedu staff who post here to lend their view as to how things work on the other side of the fence.
