“Eric needs to come forward with some details of the incidents in question before FTP is obligated to anything IMO. He can't just keep pleading the 5th.”

Is this how burdens of proof work? I thought defendants plead the fifth in response to the government’s allegations of misconduct. The government then cannot impose penalties until it makes its case without the defendants’ testimony. Here, Fulltilt seized Eric’s money pending an investigation, which I understand. However, before Fulltilt can permanently impose a penalty on Eric, it has the burden of substantiating its case. Doug may be a nice guy. But his word is not good enough for me. My money may be coming out of Fulltilt shortly.

FT is not a U.S. Court of law my friend. They are not a U.S. Company. This is not a legal action. If it was, I would guess eric is a minor based on his grammer and spelling. Even if it was in court, other countries' legal systems operate differently than ours and, in fact, some would put the burden of proof on Eric to prove he didn't do it.

If he wants his money at this point, he needs to give an explanation for his actions. He hasn't even tried.

Yes, everybody knows that minors got bad grammer. That's why they needs lawyers to help him.
