Imagine being either Marchi or Funimation's attorney. You're just out there doing your best to get your client through this ordeal, maybe hoping for some mercy if you have to settle and then you have an exceptional individual like J. Dolf seemingly doing everything in his power to piss off opposing counsel.
I've said several times already, but I think the only reason Judge Chupp hasn't decide to smack down Casey and Jdolf is because even though they've acted like complete fuckups since Day 1 and forced issues in front of him that should never have had to happen (such as Ron not authenticating his tweets) is because Marchi's and FUNimation's lawyers have been pretty solid thus far and haven't played chickenshit games with the court or wasted its time. That being said, if MoRon's legal team continues to fuck around then the others will pay the price as well since this filing alone shows they
are working together (not unexpected) and if Judge Chupp is going to Riverdance all over Lemoine's West Nile infected microdick then it's also likely he'll take into account the actions of the other defendants (like Marchi literally dodging the process server for over a week and laughing about it publicly) and do the same to them as well. You're judged based on who you associate with, after all.
Defendants Omnibus objections to Plaintiff's TCPA evidence.
They're complaining about Ron's tweets not having context.
They don't need context. It's being used to offer evidence of the malice and general disregard for anything over a period of time that leads to the causes of defamation.
This idiot is actually objecting to the fact that Ty didn't include mountains of garbage but only 57 pages of shit that's actually relevant to establishing a prima facie case. Is this guy actually a TCPA expert? Does this guy even have a reputation?
The "argument" is incoherent. He simultaneously argues that somehow 57 pages isn't sufficient to provide prima facie evidence and then screams that they're being bombarded with "scorched earth tactics."
No, that would be dumping 1000+ pages of garbage on the court much of which is unidentifiable as to what it even is.
If Lemoine doesn't have a reputation yet, he will after this case.
He included an 'exhibit 5' in this document that appears not to be cited anywhere within the motion, and that exhibit is Sanctions against Ty's firm for... Something entirely unrelated?
Immaterial to the TCPA and will likely be ignored.
Ty has discussed it. It's not good of course but it's a discovery sanction and it is nearly mandatory that any discovery dispute ends in sanctions for the losing party who, presumably, is at fault for a judge having to decide a discovery issue. It's intended to deter chickenshit squabbles like this, and BHBH apparently ended up on the wrong end of that one.
Ty's been a lawyer for twenty years, Bullock for a similar amount of time...in fact they have something like 150 years of combined experience, and this is the
only sanction against them, from four years ago, and it's being appealed? And Lemoine thinks this is somehow indicative of a pattern of conduct?
I knew West Nile could fuck up your cognitive abilities, but this can't all be from Mosquito-kun. I get that West Nile is probably God's sanctions handed down for being a piece of shit, but a loss of competency of this level makes no sense.
Also, I find it funny that Lemoine is bitching about a large filing and essentially tells the Judge, "We're suposed to be the only ones burdening you with filings no one can be expected to read" while also stating a month ago that all this evidencein their TCPAs can't be considered burdensome because it's "been known" to Ty for months, but then turns around and says that
literally depositions that have been out for two months and the tweets that
have been authenticated by co-counsel are burdensome for them. Jesus fucking Christ, the nerve of this overused prison fucktoy...
