Victor Mignogna v. Funimation Productions, LLC, et al. (2019) - Vic's lawsuit against Funimation, VAs, and others, for over a million dollars.

[Himedall All-seeing Waifu]

Beard leaned way, way to hard into the "prima facie" case bullshit and it was all a very clear intent to blindside his opponents with evidence. The late filings only make that more obvious and this theory was presented by a couple law kiwis at the time. And criticised as such.

And now on appeal it comes back with the appeals court saying basically "That was all insufficient".

He was either incompetent or out smarted himself with his 'surprise'--maybe both. This is Ty's fault, no mistake.

 

[Terrifik]

Vic admitting to touching Marchi's hair really hurt him. This is compounded by the fact that his unsworn declaration was deemed too late to be considered.

TLDR: Not a false statement of fact, and since the court deems Vic a public figure, he did not show actual malice.

For Rial:

Again, those late unsworn declarations look like they would've swung the case the other way, but Ty was too late.

Also, in her deposition Monica claimed her statement of "he's the definition of harassment" was a typo and should have read "here's the definition of harassment [insert definition here.]" Vic didn't rebut this.

For Funimation, Vic couldn't establish actual malice

For Ronnie boy, the court said Toye's tweets were too vague to be considered defamatory and even then Vic did not establish actual malice.

I am loving this pure chaos.

everything down to xyz clean slate minus vic case being legal tort & Tye being late & gay

absolute court kek

 

[NotaLolyer]

@Null are you going to feature this and put this on happenings as Vic’s gay pants lose case due to lawyers incompetence?

 

[TheClappening]

Tye being late & gay

That's literally half of the opinion.

For a man who successfully handles cases with hundreds of millions at stake this was a massively poor showing.

The judgement reads like the appeals court going almost line by line to make the easiest malpractice suit possible for Mignona. I wouldn't be surprised if what took this so long was them arguing who fucked up more. Chupp or Beard. And they decided that Beard was the bigger fuckup.

At least he knows how to hide Texas assets and maybe won’t fuck that part up, meanwhile the other faggots still won’t ever own a house because they can’t be insured.

 

[TheClappening]

I will say, I'm a little thankful for the long long delay. I was more emotionally invested two years ago. Now I'm just here to watch the fireworks.

I still would've liked it to come back to trial, because that would have been undoubtedly funnier, but I'll take what the laugh-gods give me.

 

[Red Mask]

Damnit! Just when I was starting to play Thymesia, I get this. Welp, off to Reikeita Law, despite being VERY different in terms of views.

Absolute fucking clown show, how is Nick going to spin the fact that his recommendation for a supposed friend fucked up his case so badly? How is anyone in his fanbase going to accept it?

Ty was the only one that could file a suit in the time before the statute of limitations were up, all the others worked too slow. Nick probably isn't going to defend Tys botched work too much, just we figured the defendants super botched shit was worse but I guess not.

Correction. All the others told Vic he had no case and that he was going to lose. He was advised against a suit.

I've no doubt his sycophantic simp fanbase will rationalize it as not being his fault.

Who else is looking forward to Toye suing Rekeita?

 

[Dumb Bitch Smoothie]

What a shit show.
Disappointed, but not surprised. Ty really did fuck it up massively.

I wonder what the next chapter of Weeb Wars is going to be like.

 

[WhimsicalTrolli]

So, is Vic appealing to the Texas Supreme court now or what, because I don't see any other option for him now (unless he wants to live as a rapist)?

He will lose that as well.

 

[Kamenshin]

Is it serendipitous that this ruling happened on Bulma's birthday?

 

[NotaLolyer]

Correction. All the others told Vic he had no case and that he was going to lose. He was advised against a suit.

No he was just told it was going to be expensive and then Nick said here’s a gofundme and my faggot friend who can file it. He lost due to said faggot friend being late and gay and not objecting or preserving objections.

Do you have proof of that?

Honestly it could get better with Vics company out there. Throughout all of this many VAs low key hated Sabat and the defendants. If these companies going for licenses we can see some real shit flinging.

Also the funi fags still won't pull in long lines at cons.

He will make 15 Ron Toye Jokes, tell everyone that women are fat and dumb and make 20 grand in super chats tonight. Nick will be fine.

Nah. It's all good. Here's to hoping we get another LOLsuit out of this with Toye et al suing Nick Rekeita.

Yea it sucks for Vic and all but you guys gotta not get too invested in one person. We are here to laugh. It kinda sucks. Yea. but there is humor to be found in this. Never get invested on one side over another. It's just gonna break your heart.

Turn that frown upside down fellow farmers. If things shake out right we are looking at another couple years of LOLsuits against the drunken lawyer. And if we are really lucky a malpractice suit against the Beard. Both guaranteed to produce comedy gold for some time.
