i think that one of the most critical and important things Hardin may be trying to emphasize in his filings is not just that russ is a pro-se retard, but more that russ lacks respect for the court and the court system at all. russ has NEVER demonstrated a lick of respect for all of the general expectations and people involved in court proceedings. the court is nothing to him but an avenue get money or clout he consistently fails to get through the entertainment industry. it’s kind of amazing that russ has such high expectations of this institution to serve him and also has so little respect for all involved, including and especially judges. he may not be able to be declared a vexatious litigant, but Hardin is certainly working hard to lay down the groundwork for russ to be taken less and less seriously.
