Of course he laughed. This is the only power he has in his entire life. His wife and children don't love or respect him, his charges at the school he "runs" hate him, their parents argue with him, his staff despise him because he withholds things from them claiming "budget problems." Even the cheap hookers he hires to begrudgingly service him can't wait to leave his seedy motel room as soon as they possibly can. And he knows all this deep in his heart. The really sick thing is the importance this miserable piece of shit puts on your daughter's cell phone. He thinks about it day and night, more so than his budgets, his wife, or that sports car he wishes he could one day afford but knows he never will. It's the only thing he has in this world to hold on to that tells him he has power over another human being. Don't believe me? Watch the extents to which he will go to retain (or damage or destroy or lose) that cell phone when you truly challenge him. And watch how he begins to devalue you in the way he treats you along the way. This is deeply personal to him in ways that bear no semblance to logic. I've seen people like this become obsessive and even violent over similar things. It's this arrogance of a very little, little man in a lowly government job that you absolutely positively must fight until the end, at any cost. In fact, the smaller the infraction, the more critical it is that you win at any cost. BTW, the superintendant will back up his principal, and the mayor will back up the superintendant. They're a clan. You need an attorney who thinks he can squeeze some serious cash out of them and believes that you will not chicken out along the way. Did your daughter have personal or private information, photos, or video in that phone? What did it mean to her emotionally? What problems did it cause for you and your family? Did it significantly interfere with your effective parenting in any way that other parents on a jury can associate with? Perhaps these are other legal angles to explore. Remember that, unless you significantly damage or destroy this man *as well as* get your daughter's phone back, he will win. To him, he wins if he can make you work hard for it, kind of like a little lap dog yapping for a treat. As long as he can make you dance, he is amused and happy. He must be fired for this and personally sued into the ground. You are not a yapping little lap dog. Prove it.
