+ | ===== Court Documents ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | **AxaMonitor** has obtained court records filed Monday showing former Axanar PR director Mike Bawden, once Peters’ closest advisor, wants Peters to finish paying back a $30,000 loan. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Promissory Note ==== | ||
+ | |||

+ | ===== Short-term Gets Long ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The loan was obviously meant to be short-term help during a time when Peters was bleeding money from his failed attempt to establish a commercial studio in California using donors’ money meant for producing //Axanar//. | ||

+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | ==== Attorney, Court Costs Added ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Adding to the total Peters owes, now that a formal petition for repayment has been filed in Iowa District Court, will be attorneys’ fees and costs, something Peters agreed to in the promissory note. Those costs are now adding up. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== The Bottom Line ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Peters has 20 days from being served to respond or pay, or the court will enter a default judgment for the amount sought by Bawden, or the equivalent value from Peters’ props and costumes. | ||
