Did you all catch the first thing after returning from the break was the judge striking the defense's entire opening statements from the record "due to having no evidentiary value."

This is fun.

Did they strike more than "Alex has already apologized?"

Interesting. Thanks

Is a time frame usually in place for payment? Pay all within X years or something.

no, its usually a whole separate trial about how "this dipshit was faced with a court judgement but hasn't paid yet" and then said dipshit needs to plead their case

keep in mind that alex jones already plunged through the thin ice and the judge is happily scorching his criminal rear end with the powers given to her so as precedent goes he's not going to be able to delay payment for long. like i said i dont know if this is possible in texas but the judge is already so done with jones' bullshit she may end up attaching penalties to pay to this phase of the case if she's allowed to

Maybe I misheard it, I was making lunch while it resumed, but it sounded like the whole thing was struck and then she specifically pointed out to the jury that having apologized is irrelevant.

The worst thing about Alex Jones is that Alex Jones is far from the worst. At least he's on some fringe bullshit channels and not shoveling his weird conspiracy theories into peoples' faces like Fox News and Newsmax can.

Any lawyers in the thread know what the limit of appeals is for a civil case like this? I'm curious if he will try to send this up the chain and just hold out for donations.

I don't think you have to have a separate trial, I think if there's a valid judgment against you, you can get an order for the sheriff's office to just show up and start seizing assets to be sold off to pay your debts

So I mean they could just show up and take all the poo poo at Jones's studio etc as a start

obviously that wouldn't settle the entire amount but you don't need a whole separate trial to do that, just a court order I think

Yeah he died in a shootout with the cops over tax evasion or weapons charges or something appropriate, I forget which.

This judge really seems like she is trying to give the defense the benefit of the doubt but when they're like "no fair to call it lies" she's rightfully slapping them in the face.

i don’t know how the jury is supposed to be able to tell if the prosecution is lying or jones is lying. seems like a classic he-said-she-said unless he admits he did wrong.

To be fair, I get it, you're a defense lawyer and their job is to try and do anything they can to defend their client. I mean, these are stupid questions and a stupid cross examination but that's all he really can do and all he has to work with.
