Good to see. I like Sherri Hancock but here’s someone with a wealth of experience that matches the job. Based on what I’ve read, Nabors is worth a look!

I heard Ms. Nabors was calling the Clerk of the Court in Queen’s Anne County trying to find information on what the Clerk of the Court does. Apparently she doesn’t even realize that the duties of a Clerk of the Court vary from county to county.
The duties for the Clerk of the Court are far more vast than that of a “clerk.” If someone doesn’t know what the job entails maybe they shouldn’t be vying for that job.

Ms. Hancock has over 30 years experience within the Charles County Court System. As someone who has a law degree, one would naturally assume Ms. Nabors would have a better idea of the responsibilities of the Clerk of the Circuit Court. We can not afford a novice in charge of our judicial system clerk responsibilities. I know that is one position that you want filled with as much exprerience as you can have. Filing a document wrong could have horrible consequences, like a warrant being issued for an innocent person, a forclosure being issued without going through a complete process and so on. This is a job that money can’t fix if you screw up. I have met Ms. Nabors and she reminds me of Edith Patterson. Educated, but dumb with zero common sense.

How do you equate “A wealth of experience that matches the job” when she has never held this post in the first place? Are you basing it on the fact she has a law degree? If so, that’s comparing apples with oranges. One may have a degree in law, but truly does not have a clue in how the inner workings of the legal system grinds it’s gears.
Experience in the case of a Clerk of the Court would equate to amount of time spent working in that position and/or for that office, in which Mrs. Hancock has spent a great deal of her working life, over a quarter of a century, working for the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Charles County Md. Now that equates EXPERIENCE, if the Republican Central Committee truly needs to place someone on the ballet you would think they would find someone who actually knew the job and what it entails.
Rocky, I wasn’t questioning Sherri Hancock’s experience. I do, however, disagree with your characterization of Nabor’s law degree. I believe that it does aid in the job of Clerk to have that law degree.
Keep in mind also that Hancock was new to this position once. You seem to be saying that no one would be a credible candidate unless they have held the seat previously. Look at the Congressional race. Steny is very experienced as a Congressman, but I would take someone who has been living on a deserted island for 50 years over Steny any day!
Also, it is my understanding that the Republican Central Committee doesn’t “place [anyone] on the ballot.” Candidates file to run for office on their own. The job of the Central Committees is to support their party’s candidates.

I don’t think that is what Rocky is saying. Sherri did not start out as the Clerk of the Court. She spent over 20 years learning the inner workings of the courts before she was appointed by the Circuit Court Judges to complete the term of the late Rick Day. She was then elected in 2006. Her opponent admitted in the paper that she had to ask other Clerks to find out what the job responsibilities are. I got news for you. Lawyers make up the largest profession of career politicians to include Steny. Being a lawyer does not impress me. By the way, she did not say she even passed the bar. Can she practice law?
One of the most basic functions of any adult managing household finances is balancing their check book. According to the Maryland Independent (September 3, 2010 page A-5) Sherri Nabors paid for services rendered with a local merchant, utilizing a check which was returned with insufficient funds to cover the check. Attempts to collect on this check have gone unanswered for close to a year now.
The merchant states that she has tried to contact Mrs. Nabors, however Mrs. Nabors maintains, she was not aware of this, and that she usually pays in cash and that would she would have handled this the moment she found out about this bounced check.
I know mistakes do happen, and I myself have even “bounced a check” but when I knew about the outstanding check, the problem was corrected. I now have overdraft protection.
My problem believing Mrs. Nabors is that not only would a merchant attempt to contact her regarding this check, her bank would have sent her a notice of the check being returned and as well as collected a NSF fee from Mrs. Nabors checking account. How someone would not know her check book is in or has been in arrears for almost a year is beyond me, the fines from the bank have to be astounding by now.
Now this is the same person who has not handled this illegal act or corrected the problem has announced she would be running for the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Charles County Maryland. Is this the experience and knowledge of the law her law degree has afforded her? I don’t know about you, but if you are unable to balance even a checkbook, not act on the bad check and ignore the fact, make excuses, just how are you going to run the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court? When a mistake is found, will she sweep it under the rug and hide from it, until it comes to light? That is one headache I do not what to see happening to OUR court system.
Sherri Hancock has proved she is the person to handle our court system, She has proved she has the experience, knowledge and fortitude to lead this office. Please don’t equate a legal degree with common sense and moral character. Mrs. Nabors, please pay this merchant, you knew the check bounced and to even remotely suggest that you did knot know is just a plain out right slap down to our intelligence.
Let us here your excuses now, not after the election.

Thank you Bill, that is exactly what I was trying to convey…
Can we really afford to put ANYONE in office who can not manage their own money? I thought we were trying to get rid of a bunch of idiots who don’t know how to manage money.

Has anyone heard any updates on the check issue? Has it been cleared up or is Ms. Nabors still ignoring the issue. I truly feel as this being an extremely important issue, for the sole reason she is trying to be elected in to a position that demands integrity. Mistakes happen, that is true, but when you ignore the mistake and allow it to go uncorrected, this breeds a hint of immoral practices that does not lend well to this raccoon.
You all have brought up many decent questions and points. Regarding the check bouncing business, if this is a single incident. it could be explainable. Reminds me of a funny story from my past; I got a speeding ticket once in Iowa on my way from my girlfriend’s house back to my base in Illinois. I paid the ticket by check almost immediately but transferred the next day. In my haste to move, I closed my bank account prior to that check clearing. I didn’t find out for 6 more years when I tried to renew my MD license! You never know if there’s a really strange story or not…it could happen!

I could not agree with you more, we’ve all made mistakes in our lives. What concerns me with this instance of such a small thing as a check clearing and correcting it, is if after being notified of the check not clearing, #1 by the merchant and #2 in the local newspaper Ms. Nabors has been notified of a problem, my concern is now that she is aware of the problem, has she corrected it. This is truly an issue for we are dealing with what could be conceived as criminal activity no matter how slight, it’s out right theft, and she is running of the position of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and is an issue if it has not been cleared up by now.
This will answer everyone’s question: Yes Sherri Nabors repaid the money owed to me. But not until the Maryland Independent contacted her after I had written a letter to the editor. She gave the excuse that she uses a blackberry and when she gets so many voice mails it will start deleting them. I don’t know of any woman who doesn’t check her voice mail frequently, especially when it’s used for business. The second excuse was that the check was from her “family account” and she didn’t know anything about it being returned. I’m looking at the name on the returned check right now and it reads: Sherri R. Nabors, SSG USAR, 2387 Centnnial, Marietta, GA 30064-0001. The memo line states for “Cat Sitter”. I guess nobody balanced their checkbook! Over 97% of my customers are repeat customers, yet after the bounced check Sherri Nabors never returned in over a year.
The Maryland Independent asked how many times did I try to collect for my services. I said only a couple of times, because she was an adult and it was her responsibility to do the right thing. Besides I have a favorite expression “God will get you for that”. Maybe losing the election will be just that.
Ms Trossbach, thanks for the update. I can see someone overdrawing their account when buying clothing or some such, but not for boarding a family pet. Some things trump others and there’s no excuse for that bounced check. If she didn’t have the $$, she could’ve been upfront and worked something out with you.
I don’t see any reason to replace Sherri Hancock. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Yes, thank you for the update… Marietta GA? How long has she lived in Charles County?
When she came to me I don’t think she had been here all that long, but don’t quote me on that. If she’s running for office, I suspect there is a bio somewhere. I wondered why she always used that account when she lived up here. I also did a search on her home address she gave me and that didn’t have her name on it at all. So I couldn’t tell whether she is renting or living with someone. Nothing about her added up. So I’ll leave it up to everyone to make up there own mind about her, but I know who I will be voting for.

Interesting, very interesting…..
Ok, I just started to look for a little more information on Ms. Nabors, you guys take a look at the information I found with a small amount of digging, I first did an internet search of Sherri Nabors charles county and came to this page http://www.charlescounty.org/boe/elected_officials.pdf, I read the information and found her listed at the end, I then crossed checked her address as it was listed and found this out…http://sdatcert3.resiusa.org/rp_rewrite/ if you are interested run the real property listing and her address anb see how its listed…
Well, now isn’t this a blip, Lollar owns the house and it says it is his principle place of performance. So are those two together or is he renting it out to Sherri? Now more question arise. Is the MD wesite inaccurate, does the county know he may have more than one house? Does his homeowners insurance know about it being a rental? My, my, what a weave we have. Detective work is so much fun!
Owner Name: LOLLAR, CHARLES J & ROSHA

As well as other tangible questions arise from the depths as we probe deeper in to this mystery move north from Georgia to Charles County… If she is indeed a friend of the congressional candidate, living and legally using his address as her place of legal residence… I hope someone is paying the taxes that are due, and reporting such to the Internal Revenue Service. Mr. Lollar, either as earned income from rental of property or Ms. Nabors as a tangible gift whose gift or service is taxable.
A few years back, I know I am dating myself, there were quite a few lawmakers on the hill planning on moving from one position to another position, only when vetted was it revealed they did not pay “nanny” taxes or social security taxes for their employees, which by the time the dust settled, they were ousted out of the favored new job classification. I see from Mr. Lollar’s webpage his father was a tax consultant, this alone should ensure taxes have been paid.
How does one go about looking or digging to find this information out? I am stuck at this level.
Don’t know the answer to that. If she is a relative, it would be hard pressed to prove that he is receiving rent.
But that is the issue, if she is not paying rent, the she would have to claim taxes as a gift in the amount of what current rents are in the county, ie, if the adverage rental of a like unit was 700.00 per month, that would be a tangable taxable gift that taxes would be due. Even if she is living with family…
