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

[diskboomer]

Funny, when the court previously dismissed all the counts, it explicitly retained jurisdiction to decide the fees. Funny how this didn't happen when the court issued a document explicitly captioned FINAL ORDER.

Fuck you LemonAIDS. Suck it.

He’s likely going to appeal the fees anyway lol. Since he might have promised a big pay day.
His boss apparently yelled at the judge at the fees and sanction hearing according to Ty, and now they want them to redo the fees, and explain their decision lol.

 

[Immortal Technique]

This is even better. The re.tard is walking towards a conundrum involving either his clients or his workplace and decided to spice it up with poking and prodding the judge that already thinks he's a hack.

 

[instythot]

When Vic got dropped by Kamehacon Nick said it was due to moronica and sabat's doing. There is no way they don't find his greasy traces once they start discovery.

Yeah, I guess I was more getting at: at this point all focus should be on appeal and success thereof, and not on digging up new parties to add to a weaker second round of lawsuits where the strong suit was just dismissed. Maybe they'll dig up some Sabat dirt if discovery even happens but should they follow up on it?

Unless it goes "I, Chris sabat, fully understanding exactly how illegal this is hereby direct my co-conspirators to interfere with Vic Mignogna's tortoise" , they should probably focus on succeeding in the existing suit

Chupp should've known. He can't get outta this one. THE RIDE NEVER ENDS! I swear I needed to laugh this much, thank you fuhrer!

More of a massive what-if fantasy question, but if a judge finds an attorney to be incompetent, can he recommend disbarment?

If Sabat's name keeps coming up in hypothetical discovery (probably some texts and emails) then there is zero reason not to invite him to the party since he's likely one of the key instigators. Doesn't matter if he didn't commit any defamation, he's caused tangible economic damage to Vic by virtue of being Weebstein. Even a single cause of action remaining after appeals against anyone except Marchi will likely bring up enough evidence. Sabat has some weird links with Soye since he used Soye for a home loan. To repay him, Soye wore a shirt with Weebstein's face on it for a picture and left a glowing review for his studio. There's just no way discovery on Soye wouldn't drag up texts and emails referring to Sabat. There's a reason Ty considered adding him to the suit from the beginning, and the only reason it wouldn't have been a good idea was because you don't want the chance of this shit failing since you want to nail that fucker to the cross.

I'm curious why Jamie Marchi was being sued for tortious interference. Was there ever any inkling of evidence that she was involved in TI? If there is then I doubt it's any better evidence from the court's point of view than most of the other Funi crew like Sabat, Schemmel, etc. at least until you can dig it up in discovery.

New document

For reference, here are Texas Rules of Civil Procedure 296 & 297.

RULE 296. REQUESTS FOR FINDINGS OF FACTS AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

In any case tried in the district or county court without a jury, any party may request the court to state in writing its findings of fact and conclusions of law. Such request shall be entitled "Request for Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" and shall be filed within twenty days after judgment is signed with the clerk of the court, who shall immediately call such request to the attention of the judge who tried the case. The party making the request shall serve it on all other parties in accordance with Rule 21a.


RULE 297. TIME TO FILE FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

The court shall file its findings of fact and conclusions of law within twenty days after a timely request is filed. The court shall cause a copy of its findings and conclusions to be mailed to each party in the suit.

If the court fails to file timely findings of fact and conclusions of law, the party making the request shall, within thirty days after filing the original request, file with the clerk and serve on all other parties in accordance with Rule 21a a "Notice of Past Due Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" which shall be immediately called to the attention of the court by the clerk. Such notice shall state the date the original request was filed and the date the findings and conclusions were due. Upon filing this notice, the time for the court to file findings of fact and conclusions of law is extended to forty days from the date the original request was filed.

Rule 299/299a also seems relevant.

RULE 299. OMITTED FINDINGS

When findings of fact are filed by the trial court they shall form the basis of the judgment upon all grounds of recovery and of defense embraced therein. The judgment may not be supported upon appeal by a presumed finding upon any ground of recovery or defense, no element of which has been included in the findings of fact; but when one or more elements thereof have been found by the trial court, omitted unrequested elements, when supported by evidence, will be supplied by presumption in support of the judgment. Refusal of the court to make a finding requested shall be reviewable on appeal.


RULE 299a. FINDINGS OF FACT TO BE SEPARATELY FILED AND NOT RECITED IN A JUDGMENT

Findings of fact shall not be recited in a judgment. If there is a conflict between findings of fact recited in a judgment in violation of this rule and findings of fact made pursuant to Rules 297 and 298, the latter findings will control for appellate purposes. Findings of fact shall be filed with the clerk of the court as a document or documents separate and apart from the judgment.

Jamie Marchi had publicly alleged defamatory tweets under her name. Sabat has nothing out there until it's dug up. Sure we all have a pretty good idea that Chrissie's fingers have been all over this pie, but nobody saw him do anything until it gets dug up in a discovery that may not ever happen

At this point, BHBH are begging the court for a second try at the same judge who threw everything out. Forget the wargames. Ty, as a professional, needs to be playing the hand he has and not playing a hand he thinks might get dealt to him if the dealer ever touches the cards again

*wheeze* please do hours and hours of work you obviously didn't want to do or you would have *gasp*.

Is this clown so oblivious he doesn't realize Chupp did shit the way he did it to avoid doing any of that shit? Take it to the appeals court bitch.

Chupp started off super deferential to them. I hope this goes on so when (if) this is back i nfront of him he no longer has any reason to be nice to them

 

[Dumb Bitch Smoothie]

I really wanna see Chupp elaborate and scrutinize their shit because showing that Lemoine is exceptional on the record will also be wonderful for appeals, and also wonderful for the mass influx of butthurt.

Given what they knew about Kamehacon, it's reasonable that Ty thought they would get enough in discovery to add Sabat, either to the 1st round or 2nd. It didn't make sense to add him at the start, but if they get something at the same level as Ron's idiotic texts, then adding him to the party should be anticipated. The TCPA discovery stay and subsequent disastrous hearing threw the time frame off, but not the underlying justification.

I doubt the TCPA would be available to Sabat, since he's behind the scenes instead of spamming Twitter publicly.

No matter what Chupp gives him, it'll probably trigger a pissy letter to the judge, plus an immediate motion to reconsider.

(I don't actually know if he's allowed to reconsider only the fees on a TCPA Final Judgement. It's probably yet another one of those "nobody knows what's allowed" aspects of the law.)

Then why is Lemoine throwing a fit now?
Shouldn't he just take his victory and leave, according to your logic? Can't wait to see their logic spin the Lemoine/Chupp slapfight.

Oh, I'm not arguing that the strategy was unreasonable at the time. I'm simply saying that people who are still thinking "we gotta get to Sabat" should calm their tits, as "we gotta get back in front of the judge" is a far more pressing matter for eternally young Victor. Once that's resolved, then figure out if things even get to discovery and then maybe get back to wondering where Sabat fits into the proceedings

To be fair, that depends on the mosquito. I'm fairly sure if lemoine your testicles you'd indeed get cancer. Not from the bite but because you got too damned close to lemwah. He's like fucking chernobyl in human form, overexposure causes uncontrollable mutation.

This guy knows that MoRon and Funi and even Marchi have to pay the remainder, right? Marchi is the only one who got a substantial cut, everybody else barely got a trimming when you compare to what they asked for. Chupp cutting costs because they "worked too hard" is just further proof that Chupp thought that everything Lemon Fuhrer did, all the things that Lawtwitter were crowing was normal and expected, Chupp actually thought otherwise.
