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

How the hell does that work? I need more details.


This is the best article I could find about the situation the only thing missing from it was there was a video of the paralegal confessing all this to her ex but not sure if that was played at the case for the lawyers or if the ex made it up. My Googlefu sucks and havin a hard time finding anything about the trial for the 3 lawyers except the outcomes.
 
Anything from just denying them the questionable billing item to sanctioning them for it, up to and including completely denying their billing or reducing it to a dollar, or even issuing a perjury referral for criminal prosecution to the state. Don't expect much, though.
I find it ironic that Chupp thought Ty was possibly jerking him around during the TCPA hearing but now its clearly the other side thats doing it

Well if you find anything let me know. It sounds juicy.

The article covers a lot so I would give it a read just not finding anything about the actual trial for more details. Kind of crazy a 13 and 17 year lawyers just do something this stupid but then again I know of an instance where a 16 year aircraft maintainer got crushed to death from a spoiler due to his stupid so not surprised stuff like this happens.
 
Oh, they'll still spin it.
They'll suddenly hate Chupp or say Vic used his gay pants power to bewitch him.

They are so desperate to be right that they'll entirely disregard the truth.
Impossible, that was the first time Chupp met Vic and Vic was wearing normal pants for once.
 
If Chupp changes his tune (not just in a 'flips the ruling' way, but in an attitude way) from now on, this may be what Nick was talking about months ago, where the last thing you want in a TCPA motion (as a defendant) is for the judge to get interested in the case. Chupp was clearly uninterested in the case when the initial hearing hit and wanted it all off his docket, but as of this latest hearing, it's possible he's gotten interested.

In retrospect, it looks like it was actually a huge mistake not to get Vic on the stand earlier. It's Monday Morning quarterbacking at its worst, I know, but it's fairly obvious at this point that the man has no better advocate than himself.
 
The question isn't really whether perjury was committed but who committed it. Frankly, Ron's deposition performance was so horrifyingly bad that his testimony he wasn't prepped for it was completely plausible at the time. So maybe it was Casey and Lemon who committed perjury by billing for shit that never happened, thinking Chupp was a moron they could just use to rob Vic blind with fraudulent bills.

Monica and Ron have too many lies going to keep track of them all. I doubt their lawyers would want to add to the web because they would get tripped up at some point

Lemoine and Casey probably started padding the bill because why not? Chupp wouldn't be bothered to deal with a perjury charge even if he noticed it.

I'll blame the lawyers.

Maybe Chupp is taking this seriously because he was visited by glow in the dark CIA niggers?

The way this case is going I would not be surprised if aliens started intervening on Vic's behalf. God himself seems to have decided to make Vic's enemies look ridiculous so anything goes now.
 
Martinez is credited with being very smooth and efficient, but Chupp also doesn't talk over him and literally tell him to shut up, either.

This is because Martinez is doing what a good lawyer should do, and that is filling in gaps in the judge's legal knowledge with accurate and simple to understand explanations of the law as well as references to where to find more. If a lawyer consistently does this, the judge will become accustomed to learning from them.

You'll see this happen as a case goes on. When a judge asks a question and one lawyer consistently just gives them a bunch of absolute nonsense, ranting about irrelevant bullshit, and anything but the answer, and the other lawyer consistently answers with what the judge actually fucked asked for, that other lawyer gets increasingly relied upon.

The judge's eyes are glazing over as Lemonhead babbles angry nonsense about some whiskey lawyer in Minnesota he doesn't give two shits about while Martinez is talking the actual law, law that Chupp isn't all that familiar with and was actually asking about.

In short, you should always talk about what the judge is interested in, not babble irrelevancies about your own personal anal devastation.

It's amazing and bizarre that Lemoine isn't smart enough to keep his vendetta out of the courtroom. I get it that lawtwitter is jacking it to hating Nick, because he's on the 'opposite side' of the PR and they have to, so every stupid quip JSL makes about him in a filing is STUNNING AND AMAZING, but pissing off a boomer judge with ranting about some youtube dude is...so dumb.

I do think he is so desperate for Nick for a few reasons.
1. He's not "getting" paid by anyone and is working as a 'plaintiff's attorney' and will only get paid if they win that GFM money.
2. He knows that Nick knows things, and this is a fucked up strategy to scare him, or have him consider wtf he is doing cause he has a family and kids.
3. Brain-damage due to lack of oxygen to the brain. Thank you Mosquito-chan.
4. He like the other KV'ers suffer from projection. Oh boy is he bad at it, but he pulls it off.
5. I think part of the motivation to drag Nick in comes from his clients.
6. I believe he might be jealous of Nick. Not quite sure why, but I am adding it to the list.

This is because Vic just OOZES Earnestness. Every syllable, motion, and look just says "I am a puppy that got kicked repeatedly."

If Ty has any failing at all, it's that he does tend to ramble and deviate from the immediate topic. He's playing up the simple country hyperchicken lawyer angle too much. No doubt it works in his usual practice, where he's faced against financial city slickers who he can bamboozzle with bumpkin act and then drive in the shiv when they're least expecting it, but this is a whole different ball of wax.
 
Lemoine wanted Vic on the stand sooooo badly and it's gone in the opposite direction for him, then he rants about Nick like a butthurt ex. He's really fucked up letting a charisma master like Vic talk on the record again and this time in front of the judge, all Chupp can do is just stare at the crestfallen and well spoken plaintiff and wonder if he's made a bad call.

Chupp calling in Casey and Andrea means he's got questions about their billing, the fact they skipped out on the hearing and let lemon fuhrer piss all over the place is odd. I expect when this hits the CoA that they both file notices of leave and let Lemoine fly solo.
 
Nick has a good looking wife, five kids, and gets paid hundreds of dollars an hour to get drunk and ramble to strangers for hours. Lemoine has a ruined body and gets paid nothing. Of course he's jealous.

I was not going to say what I am about to say; but doing it anyways.
Nick can also have sex without the risk of dying.

While West-Nile here would perish before anything even started.

So the "Simple country lawyer" act is least effective when you're actually in the country?
 
Maybe they're not the ones lying, but Lemon and co. are? They just might be too stupid to notice.
Also possible. MoRon have probably been reassured multiple times not to worry about Lemonparty's fees because "they'll be awarded fees once the case is dismissed."
So I imagine that they haven't been looking too closely at the bills, which is ill-advised for somebody whose hourly rate is in the hundreds of dollars.
