No. Especially when there is no accompanied police report of someone "threatening my life." They wouldn't want an investigation because it would lead back to a male faggot they know.

The scratching out of words to make your alleged oppressors seem like they are stupid people is frequently a tell that it was a forgery. Also, the general shapes of the letters strongly suggests that it was written by a woman.
Time to start looking for examples of handwriting from people surrounding the defense.

It looks like a lot of the bills have already been paid. JSL has collected $104k out of $184k. (p. 158 of JSL's pdf)
Andrea Perez has been fully paid ($2.5k of $2.5k) for the work she's done at her new firm. (p. 274)
Unless I'm really misreading, Erick (and Perez at the old firm) have been paid about $36k out of $100k billed. (payment of $5k on p. 224, payment of $31k on p. 234; end balance of $65k still owed on p. 23 )
So while team Toye/Rial have been billed $286k to present, they're only asking for $270k from Chupp. Generous. Unless I'm miscounting somewhere.
Collectively, they've been paid $143k on their work, or half.
On Funimation, their lawyers look like they've been paid their full $199k, and are asking for $169k.
On (edit) Marchi, she's paid $22k to Johnson and owes $26k (most of which was just billed; it looks like she's mostly kept up on her bill)

If Jamie Marchi becomes the next Brianna Wu, I'll cry from laughing so hard and then honk a horn because we'd hit a whole new level of Clown World.

Lol, of course it's fake. If it was real, Jamie would've screeched about it on Twitter for days.

To be fair to that guy their names are so meaningless that I also constantly get them confused.

I love this I actually love this. So Lemongrab in his filing is getting on Nick's case because he talks shit about the defendants but the whole reason him and Lawtwitter think this case is frivolous because they believe that all the defendants are doing is calling Vic mean little names. I ain't a lawyer but I can just smell the hypocrisy.

Monica is on the record in her deposition saying they didn't have deposition prep, only one phone call.

They just don't like being picked on. It reminds them of elementary school. and middle school. and high school. and college. and every public interaction they have.
Bull shit, they were coached as fuck.

They didn't require much. Ron: say i can't recall and personal fiance story, Monica: drink like a fish and try to cry. She's on the record saying that so I'd use it to argue against that billing, although Chupp's going to award everything anyway.

The obvious answer for Vic to protect himself now is to troon out.

Maybe he is already trans and what everyone claims is botox injections is actually facial surgery.

Then that part of the billing should be fought, either Mosquito woman can say his client lied or that he is inflating the bill, good either way.

I think An Lee was opposing council of a previous case Ty lost against, say it's almost as if not having opposing council hate you is a somewhat beneficial for both parties. In other-words don't be Fuhrer Citrus or Volney, and you might be able to form a beneficial connection with opposing parties for the future.

TCPA stops discovery once you make the motion. However, you don't just write the words "TCPA motion now, stop discovery plz" on a piece of paper. If you do that, the judge might just decide the TCPA doesn't apply to the case and deny the motion. So, while you are writing your TCPA motion, which you are apparently not allowed to gather and evidence in support of according to this idea, the plaintiff can force lots of discovery while you can't gather anything to help yourself at all.
I'm struggling to even imagine how to implement something like this. Are the defendants only disallowed from starting their own discovery at all if they think there's a potential TCPA motion, or are they also blocked from participating in discovery done by the other side? If the defendants, assuming that the plaintiffs are acting in good faith and the TCPA doesn't apply, do some discovery and find an email saying "Doesn't matter if we don't have a case yet, let's force them to shut up", are they still banned from filing a TCPA motion?

They hate the GFM until one of their clients comes to them with a quarter mill GFM warchest. Then see how much they hate it.

Okay so, I THINK I can explain this from a layman's perspective. TCPA locks all discovery, which it's designed to do. The issue here is that Discovery is a stage 1 part of a lawsuit, that once a Trial process occurs (Which in this case is the TCPA Hearing can't be 30 days before that). You have reached stage 2, which unless you have a court filing requesting leave to conduct discovery and have it granted by the court, you cannot conduct discovery, period. Basically the TCPA is DESIGNED to stop all discovery to cut down on legal costs.

Its a policy argument, the point of the TCPA is to swiftly dispose of frivilous lawsuit, if a lawsuit against you is frivilous, the last thing you want to do is engage in discovery and go through unnecessary cost, because the thing that frivilous lawsuits utilize to intimidate people is the cost of litigation. Even having your lawyer be present while you're deposed is screamingly expensive.
Thus, that is why the TCPA, and other anti-slapp statutes stay discovery (to prevent costs from being inflated), and awards costs to the defendant if they win (So that the costs of the lawsuit that would be forced onto them by the plaintiff are not)
By engaging in discovery, there is an argument, and let me make a point that it is not an insubstantial one, that the defendant is arguably waiving their right to the TCPA by implicitly agreeing that the lawsuit is NOT frivolous, by engaging in discovery. Because a truly frivolous lawsuit would get a TCPA response and nothing else.
There is a real argument that the TCPA may not apply here, it would not be beyond the pale for the courts to decide that beginning the discovery process in a lawsuit waives the right to the TCPA.
