  • any info on listing private settlement agreement in newspaper

    Posted by mamasha on January 11, 2023 at 10:41 pm

    Hi, I’ve done the 3 step process according to the KYR method for a few fines. It mentions listing the Private Settlement Agreement in the newpaper is an option. Does anyone have experience with doing this? How many days should it be listed for? Does it matter which paper in the area it should be listed in? I went to list in one of the the local papers and the only option was in print and online for 30 days for 1,300- 1,600 dollars! I certainly can’t do that. I have several to list, as well. Any ideas or experiences?? Thanks to all out there!

    if you ask the KYR group how they do it is probably your best option. I’ve never seen anyone on here use this (that doesn’t mean they haven’t though)

    I have not heard of anyone publishing it in a Newspaper and it sounds like overkill to me.

    If you want to create multiple witnesses what you could do is: 1st send the original notice to the agency that issued the original infringement and if a collection agency becomes involved e.g. Revenue NSW, send them a copy of everything with a cover letter pointing out the matter has been privately settled.

    If the infringement issuing agency was the police then copies as well to Police Commissioner & Police Ombudsman, or if they were a council then copies to The Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman (LGSCO) in NSW or the equivalent in your state, plus The Office of Local Government.

    If any other agency issued the original infringement then look up who they report to or who monitors them and send copies to them.

    If you want to go even further you could create a free web page on google sites, publish everything there and link to it from all of your social media accounts – that would well and truly put it on the public record!
