[16-Jan-2020] DarksydePhil is filing for bankruptcy (general thread) - and has officially done so on January 31 2020, meaning a lot of his finances have become public

[Prince Lotor]

When is Phil's next stream? I don't regularly follow him like some people here might, but these bankruptcy documents are so extraordinarily juicy that I would really like to watch his next stream just to watch the chaos unfold.

He Tweets his schedule constantly and it's always his pinned Tweet https://twitter.com/theycallmedsp?lang=en
He "Tweeted-in 'sick'" today, so ostensibly he should be streaming tomorrow and Monday unless he decides to turn the sniffles into a 4-day weekend.
Here is a perpetual restream on YouTube that @PutridElephant runs, with no commentary and occasional memes https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWCnVA_CknWIB1m0XoAUrTg

I really be shocked if his Chapter 7 isn’t tossed out.

He's started out as poorly as he possibly could, with half-assed obvious lies that it doesn't take an experienced bankruptcy judge to see are utter nonsense. I presume an actual bankruptcy judge will see even more shit that's bullshit.

I have second-guessed every use of in this thread. I don't even know what's real anymore. I think I'm under some form of pignosis.

>Claims not to own any electronics

Good thing for him there's not years worth of video and photographic evidence to disprove that assertion or anythi--

Oh dear.

Well okay he lied about that, but at least he got some use out of all those expensive electronics in the pic--

@AnOminous in your experience, how sloppy of a job was this bankruptcy application?

I know it’s been reiterated multiple times that no competent lawyer would ever rubber-stamp this without any sort of reviewal and at least refusal due to the glaring inconsistencies but here we are.

Probably about as bad as the average person who is not only filing pro se but also lying poorly and lazily. So pretty bad, it could conceivably be worse, but well within the bottom half of the range and in a kind of filing where over 50% of applicants fail already. So it's well within the range that just at the outset, it looks like an application that's going to fail at some point, and maybe just be thrown out literally immediately.

I'd think the very first response from an adverse party who isn't just a credit card company with minor debts owed is going to be a motion to dismiss it, or at least convert it to another form of bankruptcy, challenging his numbers, especially that $5,000 a month nonsense.

If the mortgage holder in Connecticut is really aggressive, they might open moving to throw out the entire bankruptcy, but in the meantime, also motioning to lift the stay so they can continue going after the foreclosure and deficiency judgment in Connecticut, while trying to time it so as to get in a judgment lien on the WAkondo in the interim between when his Chapter 7 is dismissed and when he gives it another shot, which he probably will if dismissed. That's obviously what I hope for.

But at the very least I expect someone or multiple someones to move to dismiss this or convert it, maybe to a Chapter 13, as well as contesting his numbers and arguing to the court that he's obviously completely full of shit and committing fraud.

ETA: the dream scenario is if they figure out he's blowing immense amounts of money on gacha gambling, basically his addiction is eating the bankruptcy estate and he's committed fraud to conceal the extent of his waste. At that point, they might file to have all his shit put into receivership, i.e. the trustee and/or receiver immediately takes custody of all his property and doles out what is found to be actually necessary. And then probably just starts selling shit off. That could happen if he is continuing to fraudulently transfer money to his addict shit.

Don't care if someone's already posted this. I'm reading the numbers with my tax attorney and my head hurts. Looks like what he reported for his spouse is inconsistent on the documents, affecting monthly income... and it can snowball from there.

Form 106I Schedule I item #2 states the spouse makes $1,349,92

Form 122A-1 Chapter 7 Item #2 states the spouse makes $1,742.32

One major difference is that it changes his family's net monthly income from negative to positive.

Like I said, there were some errors. They've been corrected. Please lock and delete this thread mods.

it looks like semantics, one value is an estimate for the last 6 months, the other value is just an estimate, for what I assume is YTD

[Salubrious]

It's very clear DSP filled out the forms from bottom to top.

He already knew the result that he wanted, so he just reverse engineered all the numbers until he got back up to his name.

Looks like one also specifies bonuses and overtime. It's possible (though unlikely) that that made a difference somehow.

That may be because she was working at Kohl's earlier in the year, and working more hours then. If there's one thing that appears totally ahnest on this, it's Katherine's earnings.

Does anybody remember when Phil was talking constantly about Kat's "new position"? It'd be interesting to see when that was going on and compare with the Yelp review date to see if there's any potential connection there.

I find it weird that with over 800 cases she only has a max of 9 reviews on any platform and each review is a 5 Star praising her as the best attorney they could have wished for. Also it seems she’s not a part of the national association of consumer bankruptcy attorneys. Seems a bit fishy to me.

Online review systems are so easy to manipulate, they've become quite useless as a meaningful or credible evaluation tool. It's easy to cajole people to leave five-star reviews, buy glowing reviews, or see to it that mediocre reviews get memory-holed. Similarly, it's easy to leave one-star reviews as a form of revenge. One such example of the latter is a couple in our Rat King subforum who got so butthurt over a perceived slight that they called for a personal army to flood the business with 1-star online reviews even though none of the reviewers ever set foot in the place.

TL;DR - Reviews in and of themselves aren't trustworthy and any entity with a significant number of extreme-value reviews -- good or bad -- should be be cautiously scrutinized.

Good catch, @Jaximus on the lack of NACBA affiliation. While I'm not sure if that's compulsory for bankruptcy attorneys, the lack of such designation is definitely something that looks suspect on the surface. It certainly bolsters the claims of those that believe DSP looked for the cheapest corner-cutting bankruptcy lawyer/firm he could find, even if it ended up being someone who was Z-list tier.

Couple of things

Mentioned DSP to my dad who is a tax lawyer (here in Aus) and I cannot stress enough to you guys how much he laughed at how fucked he is. So thats a good sign. My legal experience says hes fucked but hes got a few decades on me.
Protip: dont lie to courts, you will get found out and fucked

Second. Proposal for @actually in that there is a thread called 'Bankruptcy Inconsistencies' and in that thread there is 1 post that lists the inconsistencies.

For example:
Item 3: x
Inconsistency: y
Evidence: (link to video with timestamp or other evidence)

Could be sourced from this thread or others
Seeing as you are a mod round these parts, i feel this would compliment the FAQ thread well.

Oh shit big ups

Cheers for that. It came to me today when i was thinking about how much of a tism-vortex these threads can become

We got to remember that the real test will come when they bring in the estate agent(s) to actually sit down and make sense of it, maybe in Phils mind like with a defense attorney there's some sort of client-attorney privilege in regards to confidentiality and he feels he can just what he feels is right and there will be no recourse.

Can you really do much worse than this short of literally wiping your ass with the form and sending it caked in feces?
