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

[Tour of Italy]

There is enough for Marchi to pass TCPA. You have her talking about how he abused her, and then initiating fake makeout sessions in front of fans at a convention.

You have a defamatory statement, the damages, and even enough evidence to prima facie suggest that she does not believe her own words, because why would you do that with someone who you believe sexually assautled you?

Homie even in the worst of her claims what Vic supposedly did to her wasn’t even remotely close to sexual assault.

The fact that people are treating it like it was is a testament to how effective her innuendo was. The defendants relied on the whole thing being hopelessly murky from the start.

 

[Harvey Danger]

Yea for Jamie it boils down to how bad was it that Johnson said her tweet was a "fact finding issue" and how hard BHBC pushes for that. They are only allowed so many pages and its 3 defendants so may have to cut things here and there.

After reading their recent response filings, it looks like Martinez/Hsu are really good at compact arguing. They laid out multiple arguments for Chupp in a straightforward manner, without bloating the motion.

Problem is, given the record as it stands now, making the argument against Marchi might require the most words to dig through and point out the elements for each cause of action. You can nail Ron with just a reference to his texts, and do something similar with Monica's evidence. Putting together the conspiracy charge against Marchi alone would require explaining multiple connections, so I could see BHBC dropping it if they are pressed for space in the appeal.

I think the elements are there for Marchi, but in a de novo review, I don't know that there's enough space to make the argument from scratch and get the COA interested enough to follow the threads. Especially if that 2nd Amended Petition gets cut.

In the main thread, I joked that Chupp "can't say no to a big ol' pair of blue eyes." Can't say I knew I'd be right in that regard.

Imagine being Lemoine and writing Chupp all those love letters only to have them ignored in favor of a pretty blonde-haired, blue-eyed, chad they only met once; its middle school high school college his entire life all over again.

 

[Garm]

Appeal or no appeal - ruling that Vic should pay half a mill in damages for his "frivolous lawsuit", that the judge doesn't even believe to be frivolous, seems insane to me.

Welcome to the American legal system. Logic wandered off to die in a ditch somewhere.

Soooo, Moron is in the hole for at LEAST 160K
Fun for 120K
and Marchi for 10K

Nice.

What would be funny is if they fell behind on their payments and Lemoine had to drop the case as appeals starts. 160k is a lot to try and float for people.

This is why I said, and will continue to say, that the TCPA hearing did not need to be the shitshow it was.

It is VERY obvious that Chupp CAN be worked with now. Hsu does it like he's a god damn maestro.

 

[Sheryl Nome]

God I think its really funny that Lemoine might actually stick MoRon w/ that bill or else he could seriously harm his own credibility infront of the judge when this comes screaming back from appeals.

Which means MoRon might actually get ground into dirt.

If I don't see a proper appeal letter by Wednesday then I'm gonna be mad though. Ain't nothin stopping them now.

Pretty sure they're already appealing, have paid the fee, and any issue w/ the timing is now moot

That was just a notice of appeal, wasn't it? Don't they have to do an actual, proper motion now though?

 

[Kosher Salt]

I wonder how happy Funimation has to be right about now... they were banking on the idea that they would get off scott free on the TCPA, so if they're actually paying MoRon's bills, that has to hurt...

I don't think J. Sean No-Money would drop clients. He's too exceptional and he's personally invested.

Not to mention Lemoneyless is too in love with his internet girlfriend Greggy to abandon this.

This is too good. Mosquito man pesters local Judge for over 4 hours for exorbitant fees, gets to share minimal scraps with Casey, Andrea who ever else in that team. Funi and Sam will do good distancing themselves from this mosquito laden fool.

MoRon are now stuck with 160k fees they definitely will be charged with. That or you admit J Sean was lying to the Court.

It was initially a notice, then the appeals court requested the fee be paid for the proper appeal, and after the deposition hearing, they paid the required fee. Appeals are officially in motion, so long as the court doesn't bounce it for the filing date alone.

You speak the truth. MoRon will be stuck with the balance. Will WeebWars have a spin off "Mosquito Malpractice" when MoRon sues the Fuhrer?

Nice.

The main difference is Marchi's attorney didn't swear before the Judge that he would not reduce his final billing to his client and accept what the court awards. And Funi can take the hit. But Lemonfuhrer provided testimony to the Judge that he will indeed bill the full amount. That's gonna be awkward.

As of today, there is no reason to bounce it.

I guess Lemoine smashed the KF servers with his oxygen tank.

It's a recognizable pattern. Everytime there is news that upsets KV we get a DDoS attack. Like clockwork.

I was just counting down the time until it happened. Was why I was so happy this news came in just before I had to go to bed.

I thought it was funny given the timing but I'm not sure it's related. I don't think KV is smart enough to pull it off or have enough disposable income to pay someone to do it. A common trend is low income, in debt, and/or careless with money.
