So what do you think happened to all that money he raised for his legal defense?

Motion practice and an appeal can rack up costs quick as hell

Motion practice and an appeal can rack up costs quick as hell

Monty was upfront that it was gonna take a hell of a lot of money to go the full distance. Specifically, after switching to Hardin, he asked for $85,000, in addition to the $15,000 he asked for (and got... or at least close enough) to successfully defend against Nick's appeal.



Unfortunately, since Monty won at the appeals court last year, he has only gotten an additional $2,000 to $3,000. Which I imagine isn't gonna buy much. Hardin would have to be be both super fucking charitable when it comes to his fees, and there are still expenses.



Monty has now discontinued receiving donations.

I have saved an archive snapshot here. Possibly the last one needed.

Hardin may have simply given him an assessment that meeting the actual malice standard is nightmarishly difficult and even if he won, he could look at still being out huge amounts of money without fee shifting. Look at Vic's case where a pretty clear prima facie case ended up thrown out and massively punitively sanctioned because Ty Beard is a bumbling idiot who made a huge procedural error.

Monty always struck me as the type of a guy who wasn't in this for the money, but rather out of principle. I think he asked for the bare minimum in damages just to get the foot in the door. He seemed like he simply wanted an adjudication that he does't "suck little boy cock." He wanted his day in court. He wasn't claiming he was worth a bazillion dollars.

Unfortunately, it appears he ran into an age old problem: Litigation in the United States is expensive as fuck. That's not his fault. That's just the way it is. He still made it farther than a think of lot of people expected him to.

Look at Vic's case where a pretty clear prima facie case ended up thrown out and massively punitively sanctioned because Ty Beard is a bumbling idiot who made a huge procedural error.

Well, fortunately, there is no fee shifting here, and Monty built up a solid judicial record that suggests he may have won this if he had more resources (look for Balldoguards to claim it was "thrown out" though).

At the end of day, the biggest winner in all this is probably Marc Randazza. I dunno if the figure he gave on Twitter is accurate (it suspect it's bullshit), but he probably is still getting a hell of a lot of money out of Nick. Nick spent way more on this than was economically rational. Way more of he had just apologized to Monty and issued a retraction.

Hope Nick's ego was worth it. Nick probably could have put one or more kids through university for what he's spent on this (that is, assuming Nick even cared about higher education for his children... which he has said he doesn't).

 

[N1bbaN3rd]

It's a huge win for Nick. Possibly the greatest accomplishment of his life. He managed to make up lies and call someone a child molester and get away with it for the low, low price of an entire house, his law license, his reputation, a couple felony cases, and now he's picking up trash by the side of the road or whatever.

If he hits the trifecta of also knocking out Aaron's HRO, his ego will go through the roof even though his entire life is shit now.

When you put it like that, Nick puts Pyrrhus of Epirus to shame.

Litigation "for the principle" serves only burn money and have fuck all to show for it at the end of day. Litigate because you're gonna win and make a boatload of money, or just walk away.

At the end of day, the biggest winner in all this is probably Marc Randazza.

Unequivocal Marc Randazza win. Marc had an honestly horrible case with bad facts and dipshit client who constantly made the case more difficult and undoubtedly is hated by the local bench, but still managed to drags things out by creating avenues of attack and delay until Monty exhausted all his resources and had to dismiss. Truly a master class in defense-lawyer bullshittery.

Monty didn't even make it to discovery.

I'm sure that's the lawyer position, and I get where you're coming from, but some of us non-lawyers still want to believe in silly things like truth and justice, and not view everything in terms of how much money somebody can get. Sue me (pun intended).

Monty didn't even make it to discovery.

No, but he avoided dismissal twice (once with Fischer, and again with the appeal's court), and I really suspect if he were able to hang on a little longer, Wentzell would have told Randazza to pound sand on a third attempt. If he had the resources, he might have gotten all the way to a jury.

That's gonna help Monty when it comes to Balldoguards rewriting history and claiming this whole thing was frivolous (which they will, mark my words). Monty just plum ran out of money.

Unlike Vic's case, Monty's side did not commit a catastrophic legal error. Unlike Vic's case, Randazza did not get his anti-SLAPP. I see this as distinguishable from how Vic ended, though perhaps every bit as disappointing.

 

[DiabeticSydePhil]

Unlike Vic's case, Randazza did not get his anti-SLAPP

Nick will 100% claim that the Anti-SLAPP would have worked within the next week.

That's a fine position to take when it's somebody else's lawsuit or when somebody else is footing the bill.

When it's YOUR house or YOUR life savings on the line, most people will take the lawyer view. Not because they want to -- simply because the financial risks are so great.

And even when you can afford it, a lot of people will just take the view that the stress and the disruption to your life isn't worth whatever damages you're likely to win. It's one thing if you're coming out with millions of dollars, but if you're only likely to come out with a few thousand but it's going to eat up two or three years of your life to get there, walking away is often the smart thing to do -- regardless of the rights and wrongs of the issue.

Finally, there's no way in hell anyone can paint this as a win for Rekieta. It's cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars, his reputation, years out of his life and his sanity. While Monty might not have taken the Mustang, he made Rackets pay for the wrong he did him -- and pay dear.

I am not saying Monty is wrong to withdraw. What I am saying here is that is unfortunate that Monty had to withdraw. That the financial considerations primarily dictate the ability for somebody to get justice in this country.

I am allowed to believe that.

Going into battle against someone with his mother's money at his disposal is not going to work if all people do is a head to head battle. The power of money will overwhelm you and you will lose. The successful attack on Rekieta will come in an environment where the money is either matched or irrelevant.
Having said that, Montagraph achieved most of what he set out to achieve and he is the one who triggered the full exposure of Rekieta. Monty is a better researcher than people give him credit for even if he only accidentally stumbles over the truth.

He said those words? hahaha wow.

During his CPS case, he (unprompted) stood up and loudly announced to the court that if any of his kids tested positive for cocaine it was due to environmental exposure, and there could be no other explanation, to which the judge asked his attorney if there was anything else she wanted to say, and she said there was not, and the court simply moved on. This was in one of the early MNPR document drops.

Iirc, this was the only instance of anyone in the CPS case even bringing up the positive test. Nick has since claimed that the court used it to delay him getting his kids back, but we really have no proof for this apart from his claim. If it happened, it would've been after he got the CPS case sealed.

EDIT: I was wrong on two counts, lol. I believe there was an instance of him interjecting unprompted in the middle of a court hearing, I must have gotten it mixed up with his coping about the test. Also, the report that MNPR published that let everyone know about the kid testing positive was part of the CHIPS case, and the test was used to support not returning them to Nick and Kayla's custody.

 

[Pentamidine]

He was pleading with the judge for leniency and to get his kids back. Citing that the kids said they were unaware of drug use totally makes sense in that case - it shows that Nick and Kayla were hiding it well and being "responsible" versus snorting rails right in front of the kids.

However, "And uhhhh the kids said if they test positive it must have been from something else, not their parents!" made NO sense to tack on to the end there given the context. And don't let him tell you he was "quoting" the state - he wasn't, he was paraphrasing from memory. He intentionally and deliberately included the "if they test positive" line because he knew there was a kid pissing hot right around the corner and he was trying to get out ahead of it (as he is wont to do - see confessing to choking his son in the chiropractor's office lobby as a more recent example)

 

[RaptInPlastic]

A simple map of the Rekieta rat nest would help a lot because it quickly will prove or disprove various JFK style angles and lines of sight and proximity claims.
I mean if the kids are a house away from the perverted activities that's one thing but if they are in there, next to it or close, that is another thing entirely, surely.
With a such a slimy lying faggot it's facts and simple common sense that trip Rekieta up not endlessly arguing with him over what the meaning of "is" is.

I mean kind of looks similar. Not sure about Kayla… also curious as to why you’re watching pegging porn.

 

[iheartjosh]

Rekieta doesnt even have enough time to feed his kids or make sure they have clean clothes. You expect him to have time to do community service?

There's 3 ways of taking this:

1. Nick knew that he was so bad at storing his coke that his kids would get exposed indirectly
2. Nick was aware that one or more of his kids had gotten into his cocaine and tried to hide it
3. Nick have his daughter cocaine

The fact she tested so high proves pretty conclusively it's either 2 or 3

Both should result in a death sentence in a just world
