CHERYL PRAETUM is a young attorney who lands the case of a lifetime
when DANIEL BLOOM retains her services to file a standard consumer
bankruptcy case. Cheryl discovers Daniel signed a loan document
borrowing $3,000 from a large private university to attend their
school. Upon further investigation Cheryl realizes the university
never gave Daniel the $3,000 he borrowed. Cheryl divulges this fact
to Daniel and he decides to file suit against the school in
bankruptcy court to discharge the so called student loan. The
university is extremely threatened by the suit because if Daniel
wins he would open the door to a retroactive and present day class
action and the school would lose millions of dollars. But deals
made behind closed doors between the large political organization
and the judge prevents Daniel from obtaining fair treatment in
court. Cheryl and Daniel are ridiculed by the bankruptcy judge and
lose thereby causing Daniel to file an appeal to the federal
district court, where things don't fare any better. The district
court judge assigned to Daniel's case used to sit on the bankruptcy
court and is good friends with the lower judge. The district judge
tries his hardest to stop Cheryl from pursuing Daniel's suit
against the MIDWEST SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING, but when his underhanded
tactics of bullying don't work he sanctions Cheryl and Daniel to
pay a fine of $82,000 to Midwest's attorney. Cheryl and Daniel
contemplate filing a further appeal to the Seventh Circuit Court of
Appeals. Cheryl is devastated by the loss and realizes Daniel can
only get the amount of justice he can afford, which amounts to
nothing. At this time a friend from the past, TRAVIS MANNING,
re-emerges into Cheryl's life asking for help with his deceased
mother's estate. Travis introduces Cheryl to a new and legal
designer drug called bath salts. Soon Cheryl becomes dependent upon
the bath salts and Travis' emotional support to deal with the
aftermath of the district court's decision. Soon Cheryl begins to
see strange images and apparitions of demons and spirits around her
while in Travis' presence. A clandestine group of people go to
Travis' house when Cheryl is uninvited. Cheryl feels a negative,
ominous and evil presence surrounding her. She attributes this
presence to either or both the bath salts and Travis so she
attempts to stop communication with Travis. In return for trying to
break free a group of people start following Cheryl around. They
take pictures of her in public. Her cell phone starts turning on by
itself and won't turn off. Cheryl feels a spirit watching her every
move. There is an uncontrollable compulsion that pushes her back to
Travis and upon her return an extremely frightening supernatural
event occurs. The police force Cheryl to be admitted to a mental
hospital where she is later released. Cheryl continues to
experience a high level of harassment and surveillance by a gang of
unknown people that stalk her relentlessly. The police refuse to
assist Cheryl against this group of people. She suspects law
enforcement are also part of this group. She reaches out to an old
law school friend TIM CAREY for help. Tim comes to visit Cheryl and
upon his arrival the gang stalking and surveillance stop. So does
her contact with Travis. But Tim has to go back home to the east
coast to take care of his ailing parents. While he is gone the
stalking resumes and Cheryl comes close to suffering a nervous
breakdown. She begins to live life on the run, not getting enough
to eat or sleep. Her practice takes a downward turn because her
income generating ability is compromised by having no confidential
means to talk or meet with clients. Cheryl and Daniel decide to
pursue a further appeal with the Court of Appeals. Cheryl also
finds out she is pregnant but doesn't know who the father of her
unborn child is.
