Someone mentioned to Nick last night, and I'm not sure if we caught it here, but the process server notarized his own sworn statement.

Notaries cannot notarize their own signature, nor can they notarize a transaction for which they receive financial or material benefit (separate from their notary fee). It seems that the Lemonfuhrer may have his own problems with filing fraudulently notarized documents...
EDIT: damn it, they're not the same names. "Marcus J. Collins" vs. "
Michael J. Collins." At a first glance they look the same (although I did notice that the signatures were totally different). Looks like it might have been a family job.
The primary named defendant is Funimation, which means the lawsuit is "Mignogna v. Funimation, et. al." I wouldn't read too much into that without some kind of additional confirmation.
Lemonparty specifically noticed opposing counsel that he was providing the binder to the court, but
not providing the binder to them because he claimed that they already had everything
in it. They did not, however, have any way to know specifically
which evidence he wanted the court to look at, or how he had organized it, because they did not have the binder itself. Nor did they have any way to know whether he stuck anything in that was disputed as to admissibility or was otherwise somehow improper, so they had no way of responding to strike it.
I'm a little bit inclined to think, however, that yet another sheaf of documents from the wheezy brown-noser was the
last thing the judge wanted to have on his desk, and that's why he rolled his eyes at the idea of
yet another binder of evidence (all of which was already on file, supposedly) from the Plaintiff.
