TCPA would be the breaking point, I think.
As of now, they "only" lose $160,000 if Vic just rolls over and dies. If it gets past TCPA, the $100,000 payout they get from Vic gets reduced by however many causes are upheld, and by how much the appeals court decides on.
And let's say they utterly destroy Vic at trial. They're still on the hook for the $280,000 Lemwaaah said he would bill them for. And that's best case scenario.
Anything less than best case is embarrassing discovery, costly settlement or a jury judgment, and lots of time and stress.
Martinez and Hsu seem like they're on the ball and out for blood, so I'm confident at least something will be reversed. And that's where the fun begins.
