Lawtwitter is awful worked up for the fact that nothing's going to happen tomorrow and they're so sure that Vic is going to lose 0-17 on appeals anyway.
Look....just realistically, Vic is not going to lose 0-17 on the appeals. That isn't a realistic result. It'd be nice if Vic slam dunks 17-0 in appeals - and I do think that's a reasonable possibility - and it's much more likely he'll lose some causes and then keep some on all the people, but the idea that he won't keep even one on anyone? That's just not going to happen in any realistic situation. It would require all three judges, who include people that have ruled on TCPA before, to pull a Chupp and say "oh no this is too confusing, I don't want to try" and just throw everything out. Even Chupp didn't give reasons for his decisions, because he didn't have any - just 'oh no this is a mess I don't understand, get it off my docket' - and that's really the only way to end up throwing out everything on everyone.
Anyone who confidently says that Vic will lose 100% of his appeal (especially if they also think somehow Chupp was perfect except where he didn't award enough to MoRon) is either stupid or lying. Simple as.
