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

[Hexadecimal]

Seriously, even driving to WalMart is a multi-hour endeavor in Texas. If you don't like driving long distances compounded by idiotic traffic, drunk driving illegal aliens, and eternal road construction, Texas just ain't the state for you.

I've driven Austin to Dallas and back again in the same day several times for very minor things, like hand-delivering things I didn't want damaged or lost in the mail. Driving just isn't a big deal in Texas.

Can 100% confirm. Errand trips to DFW from HTX ain't shit.

So Lemoine again accused Ty of doing something that essentially doesn't affect anything. And Ty warned Lemoine that if he wanted to play by these rules, there were a lot of violations on their part, which were really aimed at obstructing the work of the court.
And after that warning, Lemoine went into attack.

Very strange. Personally, my opinion is that the judge will simply dismiss the notary certification question because the evidence was immediately withdrawn. Therefore, they do not apply to this court and this case. However, the defendants may well be given the proper treatment. If they even now fail to be the first to give the court what Ty mentions, and if the story with Ron checks out.

I will say that while there is nothing to be done but wait for the chips to fall, it is quite the conundrum.

Both options seem certifiably insane to attempt: A) Try to defraud the court in a high profile case in a way that is easily exposed B) Falsely accuse opposing counsel of Fraud over something easily verifiable

This feels like it will change the tone from unfriendly to murderous.

Also: a plane flight to San Antonio is only an hour.

It doesn't matter much, but this case is very far from high-profile. OJ and Jackson were high-profile; Kavanaugh was high-profile. Vic's case feels high profile because WW eats up a lot of our attention but the Funi leaks have already garnered far more publicity than this lawsuit even tho it one begat the other.

 

[AnOminous]

This is a very serious allegation and is apparently based solely on the fact that (in Texas), the affiants live at a distance from Tyler, Texas.

However, the entire argument is purely based on suspicion.

"If, as suspected, the Affiants did not appear before Mr. Beard, then the Fraudulent
Affidavits to the Response are inadmissible and constitute an attempt to commit fraud upon the
Court. See Allison v. Conglomerate Gas II L.P., 02-13-00205-CV, 2015 WL 5106448, at *9 (Tex.
App.—Fort Worth Aug. 31, 2015, no pet.)."

There's NOTHING in the record besides that supporting this allegation. Not even an allegation that one of the witnesses is known to have been somewhere else at the time. Nothing. Yet, it's somehow completely implausible that with a month's notice, a lawyer could get some witnesses together for a signing, even though this happens every day.

For just how ludicrous this argument is, imagine that I responded to a report of a court hearing by printing out the locations of the residences of everyone claimed to be in court and claimed the hearing never happened because some of them lived hundreds of miles away.

Nevertheless, the defendants call them "Fraudulent Affidavits" and otherwise make gravely serious allegations.

If they have no basis for these claims, their scandalous claims themselves should be stricken.

 

[Legioneer]

By the way, what does Ty need to do in this situation? Simply give to the court 3 notarized (not by him or his firm) affidavits that yes, we went to the BHBH and personally gave these testimony?

If you think high profile is reserved just for things like the OJ case you have a very limited view.

When firms or businesses in general talk about high profile clients they are probably people you’ve Never heard of.

High profile means there are a significant number of eyes on the case compared to the standard, not that it applies exclusively to celebrities or presidential nominees.

There is a large audience of people reading and scrutinizing the work in this case, that is high profile compared to usual of only family members and clients caring.

So their evidence of fraud is them whishfully thinking there was fraud.

By the way, what does Ty need to do in this situation? Simply give to the court 3 notarized (not by him or his firm) affidavits that yes, we went to the BHBH and personally gave these testimony?

If Ty notarized them, he has a notary book to prove it. I'm not sure why anyone would be entitled to that material though because the statements got withdrawn.

I'm guessing that the notarized ones were never meant to be attached, and were simply for the Firm's benefit so they could hold the affiant to them at a later date or something like that.

I think Lemoine read that email as a bluff and is now ready to bet everything on it. I suspect that we'll find out one way or another real soon if he finally hit the jackpot.

Personally, I just don't see it. It's too risky and Ty knows that there's a legion of autistic hanger-ons like Douchette and Cohen looking for anything to get him disbarred.

Yeah thats why I just. I just can't believe, absent evidence, that Ty would be so stupid as to commit fraud like that. It just doesn't add up. Maybe he did do something that dumb but I just can't believe that without some serious proof being offered ahead of it.

That’s my overall gut feeling, but the fact that the other defendants’ lawyers hitched their wagon to J Sean’s rambling does give me pause.

In my opinion, the main question is how many Ty clients or fellow attorneys etc. already know about this case?
I think that despite all the streams with Nick, the number tends to zero. People don't have time to be on Twitter, they are working and the issue before the court has nothing to do with them.

If, for example, Ty loses everything now and he is even will be punished by the court, I don't think it will affect his practice. Of course it's gonna hurt his reputation. But it wouldn't destroy it, as if it was really a news bulletin about this court every day, even in the local news, in Texas.

I would be concerned if J Sean actually put up evidence of said fraud

 

[AnOminous]

The documents allege Slatosch has been in San Antonio (SA) for a con:

Does it, though? Is that a picture of him? It doesn't say what it is a picture of. It says that apparently because the mailing address for Silverfire is in one place, and some other thing is in some other place, Lemoine just assumes he was at yet a third place, based on. . .what?



So the motion claims Slatosch was in San Antonio at something called San Japan, and cites to ¶¶21-25 of Lemoine's Declaration, which don't make any sense.

It claims Satosch is the owner of Kamehacon and then links to Kamehacon's Instagram, I'm not sure why since Kamehacon was over months ago, and then links to a picture of what is apparently Eric Vale.

Then it claims this somehow (how?) indicates that Slatosch was in San Antonio.

And then, inexplicably, it makes some conclusion based on the distance between Tyler, Texas and Fort Worth (why?).

No other reason to be in San Antonio now that Taco Land is gone. I'm glad the shitty reboot failed.

From cheap taco joint to GWAR. That's art.

 

[AStupidMonkey]

"Surprised" is probably more appropriate. If he had proof, why not file it with the motion? "HAHA, YOUR HONOR, I WAS ONLY PRETENDING TO BE RETARDED!"

 

[Imperial Agent]

Does it, though? Is that a picture of him? It doesn't say what it is a picture of. It says that apparently because the mailing address for Silverfire is in one place, and some other thing is in some other place, Lemoine just assumes he was at yet a third place, based on. . .what?

I didn’t mean to imply he was confirmed there, only that the defense’s documents allege he was.

I couldn’t begin to fathom how a west Nile ravaged mind works.

If Ty notarized them, he has a notary book to prove it. I'm not sure why anyone would be entitled to that material though because the statements got withdrawn.

Notary books are public information. Anyone can get a copy if they pay a fee. From Texas's FAQ on notaries:

Another random observation: remember how we've been saying Marchi's lawyer Sam Johnson is being quiet and generally competent? Turns out he was the one that noticed the issue and wanted to see Ty's book.

Johnson didn't explicitly offer to pay fees, but if he does upon Ty's request, then Ty is required to respond with those pages or else he gets a complaint filed against him to the Texas Secretary of State's Office.

Considering that letter is dated Aug 31, it means Johnson saw the potential issue immediately, without waiting for us to notice it on the Farms on Saturday night/Sunday morning. My guess is when Ty didn't clarify the issue with a quick scan and response, Johnson let Lemoine know and signed on to the resultant filing. He probably let Lemoine do the drafting to save on his own work and billable hours, too.

I'm legit interested to see this guy in court.

Guys, am I right that Chris Slatosch is this guy in the video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1E1j2PenOKM
I. e. that he is not there on the photo and that all conclusions are made on the basis of where the photo was taken?
As if it is not the 21st century and the photo cannot be sent by e-mail for publication on the official account.
