The transaction took place in Portland Oregon and I live in Florida. If they had followed the process of checking an ID they would not have leased the product.

If they eventually file suit against you about the lease, they might do so in Oregon. In that case you will need an Oregon... Read more »

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for five weeks. One of the issues that could confront a claimant in a situation like this is the element of damages compared to the cost of litigation. But that's only a generality.
