Legal representatives for Tallarico responded to the lawsuit on February 8th, 2023, with 22 defenses and a prayer for relief (as spotted by CUPodcast).
Tallarico's attorneys claim, among other defenses, that Amur Equipment "has failed to fully pursue Intellivision Entertainment LLC before pursuing Defendant" and that "The purported personal guaranty is not enforceable against Defendant". It then goes on to allege "Negligent Administration of Financing", essentially arguing that Amur Equipment increased Tallarico's risk through bad decision-making in granting the loan in the first place, and also that the finance company performed a "sham sale" of the office equipment after repossession.
