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

Always nice to see a victory for free speech.
Vic is a pedo and he can't do shit against me for saying that.

 

[Mr._Blonde]

I guess that's it than. The least we can do for him is move forward.

I don't care what anyone says, I'm still getting his autograph.

I would rather have his Autograph than anyone still in Funimation.

Edit: By the way, we now just have to wait for them to turn on each other now that Vic isn't a unifying threat.

As was cited in this case as well as other appellate cases from this same court, "sexual predator" is a statement of opinion without a strict legal definition. Sexual predator and sex offender are not the same thing even though chuds often equated them to the same thing during this trial

If calling someone a sexual predator isn't defamation worthy, how about you declare yourself one at whatever unfortunate workplace you inhabit? Let's see what happens.

Hey, remember that time you called the posts on Kiwi Farms "tweets." That was you right? Now you're using chuds uniornically. lol Not that anyone should care about internet stickers, but it's still hilarious you have negative 150 karma.

But he wasn't TRYING to make a joke, it WAS a joke. That WAS the entire joke. Asking "what are you doing tonight?" like asking a potential date is a joke because he obviously isn't seriously propositioning a child, the fact that she's a child is THE JOKE. As in not serious. Facetious. Silly. You don't have to find it funny by any means but that doesn't mean it wasn't still just a joke and to imply it wasn't without any factual basis is really fucking disgusting.

I'd say I can't believe that you people are actually THAT fucking autistic but then I remember what site I'm on.

She's completely fucked in the head. Read anything else she has to say anywhere. Her own mental illness is totally skewing her perception if this isn't just her lashing out at him for being a generic male figure.

Remember that time you got so invested in this case that you're taking the loss personally as if it affects your life? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Remember that time KF repeatedly said they aren't ISWV but then downvote anything not in support of him? I do. You downvoted a neutral post saying 'This is the judgement, and here are the files'. Karma on here is meaningless when people like you review bomb people to feel better about your sad life.

Ralph can't hold all of these dubyas!

Flamenco heartbroken!
Gator in tears!
Rieketa seething!

But most of all the loliavatars are down bad! Another all time banger from the killstream. Keep going at those animespergs brother Ralph. Truely the king of our sektur and a pillar of our comunity.

You're on KF yet you're taking about KF as a third party borg mind collective apart from yourself. I don't know, maybe you're getting bad stickers not because you have an opinion but because it's obvious you're a Twitter lolcow using an obvious sock for whatever dumb identity you have among the crowd of mutants defaming Vic. But yeah, sorry that the "tweets" on KF ruffle your feathers so much you had to make an account here to explain to KF what KF thinks about something. lol

Also, great strawman arguments. I saw the decision coming from a million miles away due to the fact Ty Beard made too many mistakes and the appellate court would obviously take the lazy route of avoiding examining the actual content of the lawsuit instead of sinking it on technicalities. It sucks, but it was like over an 80 percent chance that was going to happen. This case doesn't affect my life and I barely think about it, but it still doesn't change the fact this was an SJW Twitter mob smear job by awful disgusting people who make up for their sad lives by tearing down people better than them.

I maintain that if he wanted to litigate he should have stuck with his original attorney, who was both a woman and had actual experience with defamation. Nick schmoozing onto Vic so he could convince him to hire a very close family friend instead with the intention of being able to get him onto his show as a guest is the real tipping point for where Vic simply should have looked at the mounting bills and refocused his efforts elsewhere.

Ty is a fat, blithering real estate lawyer who's tactics consisted of asking the dang Keewee Farms to fuck with the defendants, wearing funny shirts, and handing his sloppy homework in late. The money from the GoFundMe would have been substantially better off being used to start some small scale studio away from the stink of the Texas recording scene than paying him for his terrible work.

This is critical. Nick built his channel on covering this shit, and due to his actions completely fucked Vic over in order to grift. I remember thinking how bizarre it was that Nick kept having Ty Beard on to talk about the case, when he should have been focusing on actually doing legal work.

NEVER TRUST NICK REKIETA.

MUH DOWNVOTES, MUH STICKERS

off yourself.

 

[PeckingOrder]

Remind me again why we don’t have a Rekieta thread?

 

[TheClappening]

Was thinking, the real MVP of this case was Marchi's lawyer, Sam Johnson. He was the one who detected the bad affidavits (either seeing that the signatures were off, or that the timestamps didn't match up with distance) and shot off a letter to Lemoine. Lemoine had a gasping orgasm as he did some motions, and Sam Johnson accomplished his goal of getting the Tylphone affidavits tossed while not having to charge his client a dime.

As the opinion constantly reminded us, the lack of affidavits from Vic and Slatosch were absolutely fatal to Vic's case. Sam Johnson may have very well won it for all the defendants.

Hmm, now what’s it doing there and not in one of the proper lolcow boards?

 

[Mister Dongs]

I have heard people gloating that this Vic dude is now "legally a pedophile and sexual predator", someone care to explain? I'm not really that literate in American laws and haven't been following this case, but as I understand it, what was said about him wasn't found to be defamation, this doesn't mean it is legally true does it?

I believe what they're gloating about is that the judge's apellate decision has stated that saying Vic Mignogna is a pedophile and a sexual predator is legally protected speech as it "falls within the broader principle that a speaker's individual judgment that rests solely in the eyes of the beholder is mere opinion." On top of that, the judges said that Vic meets the criteria to be considered a public figure.

 

[SupahAuspregatist]

Sortof. Based on Damian's social media activity they warned him in secret and gave him like 6 months to prep himself, then only posted the article kicking and screaming. They then were super quick to help once Damian threatened to sue the kid into recanting.

It's important to note that once that article hit, our intrepid Kiwi Sleuths found live public comments from Mills calling a 12 year old jailbait and openly lusting after similarly aged children on his Facebook account. The recanting also did not recant the evidence, obviously, although Mills and his enablers immediately claimed that the kid recanting to avoid being harassment sued (ironically what the TCPA is meant to prevent) also meant all the kid's receipts didn't count either.

In short: ANN was basically forced to out Mills as a nonce, and were super quickly to help him hide under a rock again. But it's pretty much confirmed he's a raving nonce.

I believe there was also something about ann being contacted by some higher up saying mills would kill himself if they didn't take the article down.

I have heard people gloating that this Vic dude is now "legally a pedophile and sexual predator", someone care to explain? I'm not really that literate in American laws and haven't been following this case, but as I understand it, what was said about him wasn't found to be defamation, this doesn't mean it is legally true does it?

The people who say that are legally retarded. The case wasn't about is he or is he not a sexual predator cause if it was he would go to trial instead, but this was about damages done by said defamation. So the courts somehow did not find the defamation damaging but that doesn't mean he is "legally" anything.

Stay fat and salty twitter tard. Just because you had a lot of retarded and nonfactual shit to say that got you stickered and laughed at doesn't make anyone iswv. You keep on seething for being another bias twitter retard and we'll keep on laughing at you.

And twitter once again proves to full of retards.

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.

For fucks sake. Everything is there and they had 400+ tweets of Ron saying fucked up shit. The justice system is just too dumb and having a child like Chupp ruin the case just shows that there need to be more mature and serious people working in the legal system.

On a brighter note, Vic still having work is an W according to Ty and Vic was only convicted by the court of twitter opinions there is that. Hope this AM gig goes well for Vic.

 

[TheClappening]

For fucks sake. Everything is there

That's the thing, though. Everything was not there. Ty fucked up and the most critical evidence, Vic's sworn statements (in regards to defamation) and Slatosch's sworn statements (in regards to TI) were never properly introduced into the record.

In the TCPA the movant (defendant's) evidence is considered weak, while the nonmovant (plaintiff) is considered strong. Where evidence conflicts, the plaintiff is presumed to win. Strong beats weak.

However, when it's weak evidence versus no evidence, even weak evidence wins. And here we are.

For fucks sake. Everything is there and they had 400+ tweets of Ron saying fucked up shit. The justice system is just too dumb and having a child like Chupp ruin the case just shows that there need to be more mature and serious people working in the legal system.

There is a fundamental corruption in the law. I don't think better interpreters of bad laws will ultimately correct the problems with the system as it exists. Anti-SLAPP laws protecting liars isn't a bug, it's a feature, and the bugmen writing these laws knew it when they did it.
