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

One of the "Vic is a diva" complaints is that he insisted on multiple takes, as if that's actually a bad thing instead of what a conscientious actor would do fairly often. It's not like he was flipping shit over and screaming at people like Christian Bale (although that guy kind of deserved it).

I'm certain most shitstains that faced an angry Vic probably deserved it.

The other major of the 2 main diva complaints is that he had the gall to expect conventions to uphold their end of a contract that they legally signed. If they signed a contract saying he got a room at ___ time on ___ day, he had the NERVE to actually want them to give him a room.
 
The original and first amended petition really only become relevant if the second amended petition wasn't admitted, right? I know Chupp did an end run around having to rule on whether to admit it, but I would imagine BHBC probably just wants to cover their bases. In the case that the appeals court throws out the second amended petition on the grounds that it somehow caused surprise to the defendants, they'll need to be able to refer to the previous versions, or they'd be shit out of luck.

If there was no question about the second amended petition being on the record, I don't really see why the original petition or the first amended petition would have been necessary. They've been superseded, replaced; IIRC Nick has even described it as "they don't exist anymore."

That alone is enough of a reason that they must be available, don't you think?

I guess he did say that, but it seems kind of a weird way to put it. Yeah, the effect is kind of like that, assuming the 2AP was okay for the hearing. But in reality, they do exist. I think the CoA will definitely want to have them (along with everything else) available, whether they end up considering them or not. And thanks to the shenanigans of certain people, it seems having them available is a bit more important than it otherwise would be.

To be clear, I think they should rule that the TCPA hearing was not a trial (it really is not supposed to be; after all, a TCPA motion is a pre-trial motion, not to mention the prima facie standard), and therefore there was no problem with filing the 2AP as late as it was filed. But who knows? Maybe they'll decide the meaning of the relevant rule differently. Or there might be something else that comes into play.
 
It's in the record.

Lemoine begged Chupp to rule on their objections to the second amended petition and to strike it in it's entirety. He never did.

I'm sure they're going to demand the CoA count it as not in the record.

... why was the 2nd amended appeal not supposed to be in the record though? Didn't Chupp say "meh, fuckit" and ignore it at some point or something?
 
It still boggles me how the literally first filing in this entire lawsuit wasn't in the clerk's record.

seems to be pretty normal thing, paperwork gets missed. People bring it to the courts attention and it is added.
I think we think it is crazy, because we are paying attention so closely to the case, but for the lawyers involved, it is normal.

If you think about your own job, there are probably things that happen that the general public would be shocked or horrified to know gets missed, but for you, it happens and it gets sorted.

There was a lot of buzz that the petition was a "surprise on the defendants" with it being filed last minute and should've been struck from the record, but since Chupp apparently doesn't give enough of a fuck to actually strike it from the record entirely, its up for debate whether the CoA will take it into consideration.
 
Scuttlebut's been that if none of this had happened, Vic would have a Managerial/ producer position in Funnimation by this time.
he would have

Just when I thought things couldn't get more exceptional.

God I really don't know what to expect with the appeals court but no matter what happens circus music will be playing because Lemoine will be involved.
Lemon party wont really be involved much since the tcpa is over.

Argument. From. Common. Sense. Is. A. Fallacy. Never, never assume an absolute on this case. Sure, no reasonable employer would let Lemoine handle the case at this point. But no reasonable employer would hire a TCPA expert with 0% success on TCPA at all. We're dealing with pants-on-head shit here, there's no limit too stupid to happen at this point. If all 3 judges of the COA appeared on court high on LSD, and straight from the bench without so much as a fuck given in the entire process just granted vic everything, sending every single clause back to chupp, and then granted Lemwah everything saying that Vic still has to give him the whole gofundme because reasons. Would that be something anyone should expect? No. But you can't rule it out either. Not anymore. We're in fucking mirror world here there ain't no logic here.

Lets make no qualms about it, we all know the only reason the 2nd petition was filed was so Ty could get the affidavits he fucked up in to the record, so i do agree with the defendents notion that it wasn't filed in the spirit it is meant to. But this is why i hate a lot of aspects of modern legal systems, people losing on technicalities. "I can see here that you submitted evidence that 100% proves the thing you are accusing them of, buuuuut it wasn't submitted in the correct way so we are just going to pretend it doesn't exist. Woops, you can't prove they did the thing case dismissed"
