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

[Dr. Dickhead]

It could have been with permission, but permission doesn't make it kosher - for exactly the reason I already explained. Subsections i, ii, and iii are "or" statements, and permission isn't an excuse to falsifying time/place/order.

With regard to the intent element I think it is close to the borderline but not close enough that any DA would consider it seriously, especially when the reward is a mere class B misdemeanor. Beard is that special kind of special that can argue with a straight face that he didn't know what he was doing would cause the defendants to rely to their detriment on a document that was forged, so the intent element isn't rock solid.

Lurk moar, newfag. You are clearly too used to twitterisms. That retardation is not looked upon kindly here. Step back, reassess, and come back with a concise argument that you can stick to for more than a single post.

or keep being a fucking retard, I enjoy the mild chuckles. But if you want to have an intelligent debate with Kiwis, lurk until you find some intelligence

Nah, we need them here. People around here are so super serious they start freaking out the second someone, even a troll, dares to suggest that something they said might be (gasp) wrong! This place is already a total fucking echo chamber; even bad arguments are better than the 900th "Chupp's such an idiot" "A total idiot" "Did I mention he's an idiot" conversation.

First couple posts I was mildly intrigued by an opposing viewpoint. But the "I'm not SPECIFICALLY saying this I am just strongly hinting at it. But I never said it guys, honest" faggotry belongs on Twitter with the Twits. There's a difference between changing your mind when presented with new information, and going "oh shit, that argument didn't work, how about this one?"

Dissenting opinions are fine, but there's a difference between disagreeing and snidely stating that 2+2=trans rights, then moving the goalposts when people wonder how you manage to remember to breathe without assistance. If ideas are horses and the thread beats yours to death after you show it off, maybe you shouldn't bother parading its corpse again. Ignoring is also a thing.

The collateral source doctrine bars evidence that a party has already been compensated through another source, so this isn't an argument Vic can make.

I'm assuming you think this is untrue for some reason, but it's actually the case. You're still entitled to collect damages even if you received financial support for your legal expenses. There's an argument as to the actual fairness of the doctrine, but it's still a real thing.

Incidentally, it works both ways. If Vic can get the defendants to pay his legal expenses at some point, they can't use his GFM as an excuse not to pay.

Isn't that what happened with Hulk Hogan when people found out Peter Thiel was financing his entire case? Gawker tried to make the argument they owed him nothing in legal fees since someone else was footing the bill.

Half or more of Lemonparty's filings are incessant irrelevant screeching about the GFM.

There's a whole line of cases, many involving the NAACP, that this is completely irrelevant.

Gawker made a lot of arguments following the judgement, none of which worked. I don't remember if that was one of them, but it wouldn't surprise me. In the end, they didn't wind up paying the full amount of the judgement, but that was mostly because they went bankrupt.

I swear lawspeds are getting dumber. Motte and fucking bayley, it's just one step above the fucking gish gallop. I wasn't kidding when I said I missed BurnBabyBurn, hell even the birdbrain, whatever can add some more chuckles. But this newfag just sucks too much, he's fallen even beyong mein feuhrer waluigi's logic by the second post, and then kept digging.

Trolling and actually dumb are at least alternately entertaining.

I think some people are loathe to believe that Ty is so incompetent at being a notary that he forgot literally the first rule of being a notary in Texas, of which there are only five rules. I get his excuse is "I thought you could do them online now", but it's like a cop overhearing that medical weed is now legal and assuming their sore back means they can just go home and toke up.

I think it was rather like the other incident BHBH got sanctioned for, over a subpoena, where it was a basic rule they got wrong but "we've always done it this way." This is why you always read the rules. You read it already? Fuck you, read it again. You've always done it this way? Fuck you, read the rule.

Jesus Christ how much trouble could be avoided by this simple practice.

Boomers don't read rules, they expect the rules to conform to them.

If you ignore the intent element, a lot of things sound like crimes!

Nancy Pelosi would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Either claim he's commit a felony or shut the fuck up about it. Flip flopping is just making you look like a pussy who doesn't want to look like an idiot for making the claim directly like Lynn or Shane.

It's LawTwitter. If they take a firm stance they might be proven wrong, and if they're proven wrong, well, you don't earn cum from Popehat by being WRONG.

 

[WarJams]

you don't earn cum from Popehat by being WRONG.

Sure you do, as long as you're wrong ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY.

 

[BurnBabyBurn]

Texas forgery law makes it a crime to forge a "writing" with intent to defraud or harm another person. If the defendant is being charged with having forged two or more writings, then there will be a presumption that he or she did intend to defraud another person.

Technically there were 3 different affidavits Ty appears to have forged signatures for. Math isn't my strong suit, but I believe that qualifies as "two or more".

 

[Dumb Bitch Smoothie]

It's likely that Ty doesn't do notary work often and delegates it to an associate because that's generally standard in most law firms unless there's a reason to have your lawyer notarize something. Because it's a lot cheaper to go in and pay a paralegal or someone who specifically does notary like at a bank or even UPS apparently does notary work for a few minutes of their time, rather than paying a lawyer for their time AND the notary services.

 

[Markorian]

Personally, I wouldn't even be upset to see Ty lose his notary license over this, but suggesting anything more is patently absurd and exposes a clear assmad at the internet bias of whoever is commenting.
