A post has been located on justanswer that appears to be from Patrick S. Tomlinson begging for legal help in advance of his Contempt hearing last year. The hyperbolic language, the poor reading comprehension and lack of references to his trolls' in-jokes all point to it being genuine.
In the post, Pat not only admits that the SFWA funded his disastrous attempt to sue the Internet for calling him fat, but also that they agreed to pay the legal fees he consequently owed (and still owes) Quasi, made him sign an NDA, and then ghosted him.
He also confirms yet again that the purpose of the suit was not to obtain damages, but to use the subpoena process to find the real identities of the mean old cyberboolies who called him fat and pointed out how bad his books were, so that he could sic the police on them for Felony Literary Criticism.
