Skwirl posted:So, assuming everything is dismissed like it sounds like, what's the next step for the defendants and their lawyers to file an anti-SLAPP suit? Would that come up today or would it be a separate filing? To be clear, claims being dismissed outright *during the hearing* is extremely rare-after the hearing the Judge has up to a month to decide on which claims to dismiss or not. Afterwards there would need to be another hearing to decide how much the sanctions (read $$$) against the plaintiff should be to deter future SLAPPs. If by some miracle any of the claims don't get dismissed, then the defense will move to summary judgement to get the claims dismissed (and they would win on this front due to lack of evidence, etc). Also plaintiff is still on the hook for cases already dismissed since they were jointly filed *cough* Jamie *cough*

Pigbuster posted:lol at all the talk of an appeal in the replies. Can you imagine a higher court going over this sham of a case? Can you imagine Vic deciding to throw even more money into the garbage can? The best part is, if he appeals, not only would he lose and have to pay the lawyers fees on those, but he'd have to pay for a whole new round of sanctions on each claim appealed

Maera Sior posted:Oh hey, it got a writeup in The Dallas Morning News. Yeah, the writer, Sharon Grigsby, is kind of a big deal. She did a previous write up on this case like a month ago, with the prosecutors not responding to her for comment, and then a bunch of Vic stans started harassing her and insinuating a bunch of conspiracy gibberish. She also personally went to the court hearing today, so she got a first hand view of the shitshow.

SatoshiMiwa posted:Generally believe all Vic Stans believe he did nothing wrong which is very much scary on multiple levels There actually are people with various degrees of opinion with regards to vic, the case as a whole, and the larger cultural movement, some of which are rather nuanced. But 99% of what you see by volume are either chuds using this as a proxy war for gamergate/comicsgate/anti-sjw/anti-metoo bullcrap or gullible suckers who got lured into watching all the youtube grifters videos on the subject and have no idea that they've gotten suckered into a conspiracy themselves. Also the disengenuous arguments followed by gaslighting is extremely tiring to deal with.

Anora posted:What did he miss the court for today, didn't he have a subpoena to go to it? He probably wasn't originally planning to go to it, since he had some event in California that he was at today, and he literally got the subpoena last night, so it would have been kind of unreasonable to get him back on short notice, though his inept lawyer, instead of arguing that in his motion to quash the subpoena, basically made up a bunch of flimsy excuses that boiled down to him trying to cover his own rear end so vic doesn't testify and expose him for fraud with regards to the false affidavits he notarized.

khy posted:Following the lawspeak and unfamiliar names as a non-law-person is very difficult, so to make sure I understand this totally : Somewhat, though the order is a bit jumbled up. For point 2, Roosterteeth decides to drop Vic and Funimation drops him after doing an internal investigation. It's the impending legal lawsuit that he filed against his former employer Funination, his coworkers, combined with the accusations that more or less ensure that Vic is now defacto blacklisted from most major dubbing studios (too much risk involved with hiring him). Point 5 comes before point 4-we don't know the truth as to who reached out to who first or what negotiations took place regarding the GoFundMe, but Vic agreed to taking it and retaining Ty Beard (a family friend of Nick, the guy who ran the gofundme). And as to point 9, SLAPP stands for 'Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation', which is a lawsuit that has no merit and is used as an intimidation tactic to silence people's right to free speech, free press, etc. Vic's lawsuit is a clear as day SLAPP, and many states have 'anti-slapp' provisions in their court systems to deal with SLAPPs-Texas has the TCPA (Texas Citizens Participation Act) which is designed to strike down SLAPP lawsuits and deter future SLAPPs by making plaintiffs pay all the defendants legal fees PLUS sanctions deemed necessary on how deep the pockets of the plaintiff go.

SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL posted:Somewhere in all of this didn’t a related party release those inappropriate “outtakes” from Funimation as a form of retaliation? Yeah, Nick obtained them from an undisclosed source (probably a former funimation employee) and was trying to cause a shitstorm over it to get the #cancel crowd to attack Funimation, the VAs, and try to get Toei Animation mad at Sony and Funimation. (As well as to cover the the abysmal response to the TCPAs Ty wrote that was due the very next day  ) As you can imagine, none of that really panned out.

Dawgstar posted:There was also allegations leveled at Chris Sabat for running a casting couch-style audition process for women at FUNi and his own studio, but as far as I know the only place that's come up was in Chuck Huber's affidavit (which was entered by Beard, but later withdrawn). Sabat flatly denied it in a statement and as far as I know nobody's come forward to support the claims. What's more, the bulk of that was based on the assumption that this was why Stephanie Nadolny lost the role of Gohan. Anine News Network actually released an article concisely addressed a lot of this stuff that Chuck claimed in his affidavit. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-09-04/updated-law-and-disorder-mignogna-counsel-files-rescinds-affidavits-in-3-days/.150613 And ooops: quote:In an audio interview with Jason of Maven Collectibles published in February 2019, Stephanie Nadolny said that in approximately December 2010 a female friend told her that she was being replaced in the Dragon Ball franchise. Nadolny states that she does not know why she was replaced. The audio interview is on YouTube here, and can confirm the statements match with the quote. https://youtu.be/b8Ry6ssUjAg So all the rumors about stephanie and the casting couch, were 100% debunked.

Plastic_Gargoyle posted:Was there ever any more news about the accusation against Todd Haberkorn? That seemed like it was a part of this at first, but it got overshadowed by how terrible Vic is. Not really- Haberkorn admitted to date-raping Jessie Pridemore, and has basically kept quiet since. Supposedly he was retaining the same lawyer as Vic in case if he decided to sue her, but considering how this case is going, I'm sure he has 'noped' the gently caress out of there if he hasn't already.

Freakazoid_ posted:Can't fault him on this logic, it's the same argument US banks used 10 years ago when mortgage notes went missing. Fun fact, Nick Rekieta used to be a bank teller before he went into law school. There have been unsourced accusations on twitter that the reason for the sudden career change had to do with somebody getting caught with their hand in the till, so to speak. Considering that Nick is a trust fund baby, this very well might have been true.

Phobophilia posted:What does Nick even make youtubes about im not clicking that poo poo Nowadays it's 99% vic stuff, but he's always been an anti-sjw/comicsgate style bullshitter/conspiracy peddler. RottenK posted:i thought vic's lawyer was just some grifter taking an idiot chud and his manchild fans for a ride, i had no idea he apparently actually believes in his bullshit So to be clear, there are two lawyers involved- Percy Tyrone 'Ty' Beard, who is Vic's actual lawyer (and lazy and incompetent). And Nick Rekieta, who is a "lawyer" who mostly just bullshits around on youtube doing livestreams and such talking about anti-sjw bullcrap while pretending to know the law. He set up the GoFundMe for Vic as a way of 'punishing' the defendants who sought to go after "an innocent man" and somehow vic and him ended up talking and Nick introduced Vic to Ty, as Ty is a friend of Nick's family. You know what they say, misery enjoys company.

Wark Say posted:Speaking of that and one thing I'm curious: Is it normal for a transcript to be made available this soon? Like I'm guessing that's part of the reason it was sponsored and stuff, but still. Transcripts of hearings have to be paid for so that they are transcribed-they charge a lot to do this since they know once someone has a copy they will just copy it and spread it around. Usually people wouldn't really have a need for a transcript for a basic hearing procedure, but obviously this clown show was very entertaining. Also if the hearing was on a Monday instead of a Friday (because court is closed on the weekend) it probably would have been available even sooner.

divabot posted:So, lawyers - is this Hsu guy another foolish person like Beard, or did he come across as a normally-competent lawyer who's been handed an absolute shitshow to do his best to recover from? After Bead falsely notarized the affidavits in his response to the TCPAs, he got other lawyers in his firm to sign off on it, which would open up the possibility for them to get sanctioned too. What likely happened is that the firm saw the writing on the wall and hired Hsu to course correct this flaming, sinking ship the best that they could manage, while possibly offering a way to defend the firm from sanctions as a result of Ty's improper conduct.

Considering how little his lawyer is willing to tall with Vic about the case (he didn't even know how much they were suing for during his deposition), I wouldn't even be surprised if nobody disclosed to him how much this could potentially cost him if he loses his claims. I have to wonder if anybody has broken the news to him yet...

Wark Say posted:Sorry in advance if I misunderstand things here, it's been a couple of hectic few days and all, but now the judge is giving Vic an out? Like I'm guessing he still has to pay legal fees and junk for everyone involved, but is the gist of it that if Vic and his clowns opt to retract the 5 remaining claims, he basically gets off "light"? It's more like the judge going "Hey, instead of dragging this out with appeals/continuing on any surviving claims to only lose in summary judgment, why don't all sides just settle things off the record and bury the hatchet, so that this is resolved quicker, so that they may be less damages to the plaintiff, and so that way Vic can be made fully aware of the consequences of going forward". The defendants can totally say "gently caress no, pay me $$$$", etc. I also suspect that this
