CIVIL ACTION
JOE RUSSO i/t/a LA FONTANA (hereafter "MAKER"), being duly sworn
according to law, depose and say that MAKER is the debtor(s)-defendant(s) in the
above matter and
1. That the document represents a commercial transaction because it
involves business dealings between the parties.
2. That at the time of the signing of the document containing the provision
for judgement by confession in this matter, MAKER understood that a judgement
could be entered in the Courthouse against MAKER, which would become a lien
against MAKER'S real estate. MAKER fully understands that if payment of the Note
is not made as required, the holder of this Note can use the most drastic and
powerful remedies of the law against MAKER and sell MAKER'S real estate and
personal property. MAKER also understand that all this can be done without any
advance notice to MAKER and without letting MAKER have a hearing in Court to
tell MAKER's side of the case. MAKER also understands that MAKER will have to
pay all costs, expenses and lawyer's fees if any of MAKER'S property is sold at a
sheriff's sale. Even though MAKER now knows what will happen if MAKER fails to
make payment, MAKER has, nevertheless, decided to sign this document which
contains this confession of judgement.
