Re: fast court order
Payment stops any such auction, that would be your easiest remedy. Contact whoever is doing the auction and remind them the law provides you some protections and remedies from improper and disputed sales. All communication should be in writing to have proof of statements made. Request they stop it pending resolution of the dispute and return of the responsible parties [doctor]. Request they negotiate payment under protest. Try to resolve it without litigation; you'll spend considerable money trying to get a court order; Close to $400 in filing fees and service costs; probably approaching a couple thousand in attorney fees, more if it turns into a time consuming dispute in court. Contact me if serious about doing so, but a local attorney would be less expensive in travel time.
