Greer v. Moon, No. 20-cv-00647 (D. Utah Sep. 16, 2020)

[waffle]

This is the key (and for those optimistic, what the judge was angling for) - this result has NOTHING whatsoever to do with the merits of the case, it is purely a procedural issue which the court is insanely competent to rule on. Nothing is said about the facts of the case, the issue brought up, etc, it's simply about following the rules of the court, and so it stands no matter what the actual case is or ever judged to be.

I think it's pretty clear that the judge is willing to bootfuck Russ on his procedural retardation at this point, because the judge is tired of him being a bad faith combative retard. He's building up the tapestry of findings of Russ's willful failures to do shit the right way so that when he either dismisses the case as a sanction or grants Josh summary judgment for Russ having no admissible evidence there is an iron clad record on appeal that Russ fucked up and the judge didn't abuse his discretion when he finally told Russ no.

I was going to say it would also keep the 10th circuit away from copywrite issues, which they clearly don't understand. But, then I remember the time traveling deadline issue and maybe they don't know civil procedure either...

The legal logic on display here is breathtakingly stupid.

He really does live in a world of "I want something to be true, therefore every case Google shows me supports what I want".

I really don't understand what Ratface means by this statement. He's quoting a completely unrelated case as proof that anything on the Farms is automatically not Fair Use?

DaFuq?

He thinks that the Internet Archive case is analogous to this one, and is therefore citing it. This was his smoking gun he bragged about back when it was first decided.

Greers head is going to explode once he realizes how much he is on the hook for. Even if the judge shows mercy i am expecting 5 figures.

Finally we can complete his mysterious sentence:

I am

7 thousand dollars in debt

Ahhhh sweet sweet comeuppance and kicking him when he's down is just *chef's kiss*.

The next plight filing is going to be one for the records.

Greer has repeatedly pointed out in court filings that HE HAS A JOB YOU KNOW so couldn't his (undoubtedly meager) paycheck be garnished in a pinch?

Rules regarding what can and can't be garnished, and how much person can be paid before money can be garnisheed vary by state, so the short answer is "It depends."

Even if I am waiting to reserve final judgement, it does look like the judge is finally starting to get pissed off that all the hand-holding RG has received to date has produced nothing of substance. What this means moving forward remains to be seen.

>I can provide you the restraining order against Null I filed which I have
>doesn't provide it

Interesting strategy, interesting.

All he said is he can provide it, not that he would. Checkmate athiests. hardships.

 

[AnOminous]

Sorry if this has already been answered (been highlight-skipping) but when Hardin submits the fees request will we be able to see the figures, or is that confidential?

Unless it's a confidential settlement it will be on the record as an order of the court.

I don't think it's actually a payday for Null, sadly.

It might be for anything he's paid out of pocket, depending on the nature of their retainer agreement. That may be a small fraction of the full outlay.

If he thought PACER costs were going to be a burden, I can not wait for him to see his bill for this. Maybe if he was going to end up paying attorney fees either way, he should have sought actual legal counsel instead of this expensive drawn out clown show.

 

[Debbie Macomber]

Now this is REALLY gonna be Russell's next filing to the Judge!

 

[ScooterL]

he should have sought actual legal counsel

A competent and ethical lawyer would have told him he has no case.

A competent and ethical lawyer would have told him he has no case.

But a recalcitrant and drooly paralegal told him it was a slam dunk.

DaFuq?

It's embarrassingly obvious that despite being a "paraplegiclegal" he has absolutely no understanding of basic legal processes.

He could be absolutely correct about the case being a slam dunk and that still wouldn't prevent escrow accounts being used in either direction. It's an orthogonal question.

 

[ConSluttant]

Lawyers are pretty much always polite, no?

Have you met Bruce Matzkin or David Gingras? They will give you some lulz if not. I'm considering starting two threads dealing with these chuckle fucks.

Why the long face?

He’s such a strange looking creature. His actions are even weirder. Might be fun for us to watch, but I do feel bad for Dear Feeder who has to deal with all this bullshit.

 

[Sexy Senior Citizen]

Taking all of Russ's copyrights as payment would make it way harder for him to file a suit in the future that wasn't facially frivolous.

His first lolsuit against Taylor Swift was for "misrepresentation." He'll find something to sue about.

Oh, guaranteed. The second this case is over, that gimpy faced idiot will be right back at the courthouse filing another new case over some insane misinterpretation of the law. Russ couldn’t learn not to touch the stove even after burning his hands down to stumps. Some judge somewhere has to take his side, if they’ll just let him explain!

Just imagine if that determination had been in a good person and put to a good cause, instead of whatever the fuck this stuff is.

 

[Debbie Macomber]

And only NOW when Russell argues his $225 should be deducted, will Hardin finally let him know "We sent that to DJF like you told us to, take it up with them" and Russ will realize he doesn't even have that win to mitigate his crushing loss.

Hardin NEEDS to be a shithead and start replying to Russell's every email "I want the money I'm owed by COURT ORDER before we got lost in further litigation!"
