I believe Abraham Lincoln had it correct. “He who represents himself has a fool for a client"
You had/have the exposure of $3400, plus legal cost, and chose to rely on the advise of lawyers that appear to not be hired by you, State Police, and several others. If you had HIRED an attorney EARLIER you might not have ever been in court. It is better to hire an attorney early than late.
This is especially true if you are in Louisiana. That is for several reasons, one of which Louisiana has a national reputation of corruption in just about all forms of its government. Never assume anything is gospel in Louisiana. Another reason is that Louisiana uses Napoleonic Code in its legal system. This is different than the rest of the 49 states. Therefore those of us that live in other states will have opinions that mean little in Louisiana.
So having stated that what I tell you is more than likely meaningless in your sate. LOL I have seen dealerships LOOSE cases like this. They lost even with an AS-IS clause/statement on the bill of sale when they "Offered" to do free/warranty repairs after the sale. You did this when you offered to install the seals for "free" if he bought the parts.
So I would go HIRE a LOCAL attorney. I would get the meanest/crookest one you can afford. LOL Your in a junk yard war so you want the meanest/nastiest junk yard dog to be on your side. LOL
(I know the lawyers that post on here are going to love that)
