Victor Mignogna v. Funimation Productions, LLC, et al. (2019) - Vic's lawsuit against Funimation, VAs, and others, for over a million dollars.

Another reading, Chupp is personally offended. Chupping up the trial was his fault, but this is the other side literally trying to use him as a weapon with BLATANT bullshit. Pride is a thing, and this would wound it...
 
Don't think so because Chupp himself wants to make sure Vic can get his appeal through. I don't think he'd make himself personally liable for fucking that window up.
My opinion of Chupp has changed dramatically throughout this trial. At first I thought he was just some no nonsense low level judge. Then I believed his name could be a synonym for lazy and incompetent. This last transcript and current ruling has changed my opinion again.

Chupp for all intents and purposes seems like he currently is gravely worried he could royally fuck Vic unjustly. He has seen Lemon's plan for inflated fees and denial of appeal based on a technicality. His currently picking through fees is completely unexpected by me. It is neither lazy nor incompetent. His actions are seemingly just and fair. The fact that he is even taking more time than he anticipated to actually read something is a shock.

For any wondering what I'm referring to in the transcript, it is this.

No. If he didn't have jurisdiction and the appeals court did, the appeal notice was timely filed. If he retains jurisdiction until after the sanctions are decided upon, then the appeal notice is perfected after the sanctions are decided upon.

That being said, I've been informed that Chupp has "requested" unredacted billing from all defense attorneys involved, with the first calls going to Lemoine, Perez, and Casey (and these requests were in the form of an order). There may also be a surprise hearing early next week that Perez and Casey are demanded to attend.
Not to pry too much, but how solid and reliable is this informant? I only ask due to how specific the information is.

I hate to ask because it is probably obvious, but fuck it others probably wanna know too. What do you mean? Like how did they weaponize him?

No it is good to ask those questions. I also am curious as to the reliability of the source.

HAAAA I knew it
 
Don't get too hasty. I've confirmed this person's place of work and this person has given me good intelligence before, but we won't know until tonight, most likely, if Ty confirms something to Nick.

Probably sooner because if this is legitimate I don't think Rackets will wait to break the news.

But man this makes me wonder if my musings were correct. I'm still stuck on the fact that Volney testified and nobody talked about it, and we know that early billings from Casey involved Funimation.
 
I hope Chupp is actually going to take his office, and responsibilities seriously for even a bit; and look into the possible perjury, and suborning of perjury from Casey Erick, Lemontwink, Ron, and Monica.

Seems odd that JSL isnt going to be at that hearing. Maybe its because of the deposition and those are the two attorneys that were there when MoRon got deposed and committed perjury? Or maybe hes gonna ask the other lawyers about JSL billing to see if they agree with it or if JSL has purposefully stated hes padding his fees to go after the GFM?

It may be he's making sure they attend, since they skipped out on the last hearing. All of this is conjecture, as I don't know if the hearing is a guarantee (even my source wasn't sure, it was a 'maybe').
 
I think this is an aspect of law that chupp is actually passionate about.

The transcript of the last hearing and accounts of this one seem to indicate it's possible Chupp isn't some kind of nightmarish globally incompetent judge but possibly was just really, really bad at TCPA. While I remain very unsatisfied with his handling of that part of the case, I'm at least somewhat less worried about the case actually coming back and going to trial if that happens.

They attempted to block bill a BUNCH of bullshit onto fees, skyrocketing the amount, and seemingly expected him to just rubber stamp it. Hell, WE expected him to.

Not to toot my own horn, but didn't I bring up almost all his cases seemed to be outside of something the TCPA would apply to? You smacked me down on that point, but I'd like to bring it up again. Could it be he just legitimately has never had to handle one all the way through? I know nick floated the idea too.

I appreciate that and makes it more clear. We do have an audience of lurkers of ISWV, KV, and people wondering what the fuck is a kiwifarm and what do we have to do with new zealand or agriculture that might have been curious about your statement.

I hope that information is solid because Perez and Casey have been at literally every other hearing before Chupp, even when they didn't say anything. It was very, very suspicious they suddenly didn't show up when redacted billing about deposition prep they billed for but their clients testified never happened was an issue.
