I Have Recently Separated From My Employer Of Close To 10 Years. He Has Filed A Complaint With The

[Property Sylvan]

I have recently separated from my employer of close to 10 years. He has filed a complaint with the licensing board against me. I recently emailed him asking him to give me access, to allow me to have/use the original workfile in order to respond to the complaint. His response was as follows: "There is no way I will give you the original physical work file. but a scammed copy of the file will be what I can furnish."

It is my understanding that, as per USPAP, he is to give me access to the original workfile, not just a mere copy. I am worried that notes and other supporting documents will be left out to his convenience.

Anyone know if he can keep the original file from me?

Thank you in advance for your response.

You get access to YOUR ORIGINAL workfile. Drop the hint that you aren't shy about filing a restraint of trade lawsuit.

Would he keeping the original work file from me be a violation of USPAP? I've researched it and USPAP isn't clear on whether it has to be the original workfile or not.

By the way, thank you for your response. I am somewhat scatter brained with all that I have going on.

What is the essence of the complaint filed against you by your supervisory appraiser? Presumably, any compaint he filed against you, applies to him double down. If he is offering you scanned work files, demand that you or your representative do the scanning.

It's a business ethics complaint. Nothing that affects him directly. He's not that dumb.

Let me guess, former boss is upset that you are poaching on "his" clients?

Yes, gregb. Something very similar. Event though they are AMC's.

if you're his trainee, doesn't that affect him directly?
