Nick Rekieta's Weeb Wars videos & livestreams - MULTIPLE SLURS

[AnOminous]

Marchi or Funi filing a TCPA would not prevent Monica and Ron's depositions from happening. It would only stay the discovery relating to them.

It says "(c) Except as provided by Section 27.006(b), on the filing of a motion under this section, all discovery in the legal action is suspended until the court has ruled on the motion to dismiss."

So it depends what "the legal action" actually means.

However, 27.006(b) says: "(b) On a motion by a party or on the court's own motion and on a showing of good cause, the court may allow specified and limited discovery relevant to the motion."

I'm pretty sure shenanigans by the defendants would be good cause and that Judge Chupp is not going to be amused by the utter bullshit MoRon is trying to pull already, much less any further shenanigans next week.

Death by Narutards flinging kunai.

And they all look like ADF

Monica and Ron are getting deposed the [edit: day after] vic. Marchi would have to be real choosy on the date of filing to time her motion hearing minutes before Team MoRon have to get moving. If the goal is to get vic deposed and prevent everyone else for a time it would hard since motions wont be heard the same day.

And its better for marchi to let the other 2 dipshits get deposed first so she can gauge how fucked she'll be based on their answers. I seriously doubt they're even telling each other the truth now.

I think discovery is stayed immediately when its filed.

I find it interesting that the agreed extension is until 19 July. That's well past the deposition dates. It's also past the date on which Funimation's documents and responses to interrogatories are due. I can't remember offhand when Marchi's are due, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's before 19 July.

When Ty made the original offer to extend the TCPA deadline until depositions were taken, the offer was to extend by whatever amount of days depositions were past the original deadline. Now he's giving them almost 3 weeks on top of that. Something else is going on.

I think it's more so Casey is perhaps starting to BUCKLE under how much this is going to be a loss for him. He tried to flex on Ty, and well got told off by "Dad"

Could the change in approach have to do with Casey changing firms?

Funimations: "We need this to go away as soon as possible because the people who own us are unhappy with this and the bad PR."

Monica and Ron: DERP! (Falls down).

 

[Allanon]

Didn't Nick say one possible reason why they might not be using TCPA (but keep bluffing like they will by asking for extensions) is because if the judge denies the TCPA he may find their case so anemic that he just rules summary judgment afterward, since he's in control of both? So it's in their best interest to drag things out and try to sabotage Vic by continued defamation and attempts to cut off his funds to end the trial first, and skip the TCPA in the hope of the judge not immediately deciding before it gets in front of the jury so they can hope to woo a jury?

Trying to cut off Vic's funds is almost a good plan - the famous murder case with the twins who killed their parents for their inheritance only ended once the twins ran out of money and their high powered lawyers dropped them - except that he has plenty of money to back himself up if he has to even without the GFM, and they've now so pissed off his legal team with their shenanigans they're probably not going to go anywhere.

I must confess that I am among the folks here that am not in any way into anime. I enjoyed the typical stuff: Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Akira, Wicked City, Fist of the North Star, my intros being Voltron, Robotech, Gundam, and Speedracer (alright, during the death-throes of the vhs store, there was a cool shop where one clerk talked me into renting a couple of Overfiend flicks: Nazi tentacles ... yeah ... I still wonder if he was fucking with me cause gen X faggotry ) Even still, it's great to see these cons go off so successfully because I'm so sick-and-fucking-tired of watching faggots bend the knee to these harpies. It sets a desperately needed precedent.

We have very different definitions of 'not into anime'. I've seen a few episodes of The Boondocks and that's about it, haha. I'm just here for the culture war and amusing cast of characters.

There's a good chance of repleading on the basis of what turns up in deposition, which would take a bit of time. The TCPA, if there is one, will also be drafted according to that, possibly causing the various papers to step on each other.

Didn't Nick say one possible reason why they might not be using TCPA (but keep bluffing like they will by asking for extensions) is because if the judge denies the TCPA he may find their case so anemic that he just rules summary judgment afterward, since he's in control of both?

The plaintiff has to move for that, although he probably will. If after discovery the only thing standing in the way of a judgment in the favor of the plaintiff is an affirmative defense of truth, and discovery has turned up jack shit supporting that claim, the case is ripe for summary judgment.

The case could go directly to damages, and perhaps that would be in front of a jury which would have the job of picking a number.

It's also possible there's summary judgment on any of the other claims, like TI which is a lot more solidly established in the case of Kamehacon.

you didnt missed much, most anime is realy realy bad and just for realy stupid people.

 

[Far Queue]

It appears as though tonight's show should be pretty good.

I have a strong feeling that Nick will utter the phrase "How embarrassing!" on multiple occasions.

 

[quickthrowaway]

I say that it will be very good.

There are lulz a'plenty in the fertile pastures of the Farm. It is truly a land of milk and honey. Something for the lawtists, the animoos, the beauty parlor, the youtube viewers,IBS fans,the freeze peachers.... We all gather round and warm our little black hearts at the roaring dumpster fire that is this little corner of the world burning.

I thought Akiva Cohen made a decent point on the "piece of shit" issue. The way Nick chose to launch into rage mode, obfuscate with generalities about notice filings, and last night explain his new no-response policy on "drive-by" lawyers is all kind of disappointing. Up til now, Nick has been pretty fair about airing opposing views. I hope this is just a minor glitch.

Nick tried to engage with Akiva and Greg - they both said they weren't interested and didn't have enough time to talk to him then carried on talking about it.

Not really, he cherry picked one thing, harped on it, then refused to address much of the rest of the case, and has said stuff so ridiculous it's hard to take any of his subsequent crap seriously.

 

[Dredgen]

I can predict this like I’m from the future.

Shane says Nick is lying about MoRonica requesting confidentiality.

Nick will clown Shane by showing documents, likely emails between Casey and Ty proving it.

Shane will immediately pivot to reeeeeeing about how Ty leaks secret privileged documents to Nick and that’s why MoRonica need the confidentiality agreement.

Deadbeat dad Douchette will somehow claim Nick showing an email is illegal.

 

[AlexJonesGotMePregnant]

Nick has also repeatedly said something along the lines of "When another lawyer disagrees with you, you always take it seriously" in regards to the lawtwittyers and he has several times addressed their critiques in detail. I agree that he is often yelling or otherwise angry while doing so but that's pretty normal.

 

[HarblMcDavid]

Nick did initially have some issues explaining the TDMA over-assertion in a way even the slow kids could understand, but by the last time I remember him explaining it on stream it was so clear that even I, in a state of fairly advanced refreshment, could understand it and still remember the details.

I do understand not continually engaging because at a certain point all the relevant critiques have been addressed, and once you've addressed them and don't see any new relevant critiques coming in what's the point of continuing to clarify and explain? Usually if someone is asking you for the same thing 3 or more times in a row they probably just aren't getting the answer they want rather than actually arguing a point, and they are just trying to get you to restate your answer as many different ways as they can to try and find a gotcha in the resultant explanations.

Nick posted a topic list for the show tonight. Appears to contain enough juicy bits even without the mystery bonus.

Anyone in his discord with additional information? I don't know if the person who posted in the lawsuit thread has some insider information, but they seem to think that there may be new filings tomorrow. Perhaps something related to Anime Matsuri going after BAM now that the event has ended?
