Probably tell you to use common sense and contact the contractor telling them you have proof of "payment in full", instead of trying to get "free" so-called legal advice from Usenet.
Sheesh, like only the contractor could mark "PAID" across an invoice. Proof of payment is the only way to show proof of payment.
DerbyDad03, If you don't know, we could never adequately explain it to you.

re: "The stand-up honest American thing to do here is PAY THE BILL."
I agree with everything you've said, except for the wording. How is the use of the word "American" relevant to that statement?
Oh, I get it! Americans have cornered the market on stand-up honesty.
Paying the bill wouldn't be the stand-up honest German thing to do or the stand-up honest Dutch thing to do or the stand-up honest English thing to do or the stand-up honest Armenian thing to do or the stand- up honest French thing to do or the stand-up honest Italian thing to do or the stand-up honest South African thing to do or the stand-up honest (insert your choice of a dishonest nationality here) thing to do.
I guess it wasn't sufficient to simply say that paying the bill would be the stand-up honest thing to do - period.
Me thinks you best take your medicines again this week, DerbyDad03!!!! You must be one of Obama's Hate America First fans !!!!

It's just an expression Americans use in the US. Geesh! When in the US, expect to hear US expressions. I'm an American. You think I'm all pansy- ass ofeeeeeeeeended from my heritage side? That would be jack-assed. If I were in the Netherlands and a Dutch expression was used I should start whining about it? They must think we're heathens here trashing Christmas. None of Sinterklaas' sidekicks are black like Zwarte Piet. Maybe they should make a stink about it at a UN meeting.
Maybe the expression American Pie should be changed to just Pie or US Pie?

All I can say is that both of you went way off the deep end on this one.
My comment had nothing to do with hating America, Obama, "pansy ass ofeeeeeeeeended from my heritage side", or anything related to anyone's nationality, upbringing, politics or religious beliefs.
Honesty is honesty and doesn't need a locale related qualifier.
That was the gist of my comment and nothing more.

I've been known to do that. Guilty.
DerbyDad03, now that you have been properly chastised, we can both do the "American" thing and call a truce and go on to bigger and better things.
OK with you, my friend ??
James
That's an interesting way to word it.
Call me wrong once again and then request a truce.
OK, let's do it your way:
Even though I was *improperly* chastised, I'll grant your request for a truce.
Moving on...
