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

[TheClappening]

That extra $200K was self-inflicted. They had no reason to engage in a bunch of pointless discovery, since the whole point of a SLAPP motion is that the complaint is so frivolous on its face that it entirely fails to state a claim. If it does, any evidence more than a scintilla (like an affidavit from a party with personal knowledge) is sufficient to make out a prima facie showing. That is if the judge even knows what that is.

I know that, you know that. I don't think the anti-Vic nutjobs know it yet didn't have a single objection to how Chupp ruled. Because that would imply MoRon attempted to use the law as a sledgehammer against evil Lasagna man and it blew up in their face.

I think they know that, they're just damage controlling and going "no no no, Chupp was right on all of it, except the fees hearing, but he was right on it all".

@AnOminous any rebuttal

 

[Kosher Salt]

Both of those exceptions are 100% fucking irrelevant. Both of them involve admissibility in court of evidence related to what happened during the mediation, and have nothing whatsoever with posting it on Twitter.

That's because Two-ton Tewson knows absolutely nothing about how the law actually works.

Except the law of gravity.

Except the law of gravity.

Just because they're affected by it, does not mean they comprehend it.

Is the hearing tomorrow Open? Do we have Kiwis on the ground to report? I suppose in the era of covid maybe someone has a link to report on the Zoom call

There isn't a hearing. There's just a date when they officially start considering the case so that they can calculate all of the submission deadlines.

Ok thank you. I just figured it was trad appeal hearing with arguments. Thank you

That particular appeals court hasn't held a hearing with oral arguments since, like... the beginning of covid. They're doing everything on paper.

 

[DragoonSierra]

@Nontransferable Whats the bare minimum amount of time the appeals court has taken to rule on a case recently?

@AnOminous looked up the case record a while back.

Case events from the last five Second District cases with memorandum opinions, specifically the dates between submission and the opinion being rendered.

None of these were accelerated appeals, while this case is. The period between submission and rendering opinion range between 22 days and slightly over seven months.

 

[TheClappening]

And the waiting begins.

As an aside, it seems no one submitted courtesy briefs except Funimation.

Assholes, all of them. How the fuck do you not do this? Over a quarter million in crowdfunding isn't enough for some goddamn copies? They're just that goddamn cheap? How. Fucking. Embarrassing. Yet again more amateur hour shit.

I guess there's a chance they'll appear tomorrow morning, but yeah, seriously. This is game face time, not change the batteries in your spectacles time.

Last March I teased you guys with something, saying Nick had "made me aware of something" but I didn't give any more than that. It was because Nick said I could tease it here, but not explain what it is as he didn't want Lawtwitter to get wind of anything. At this point I can now inform you all of what it was.

Under the Texas Rules of Appelate Procedure (Rule 11) the clerk of the court "may receive, but not file, an amicus curiae brief." Because of this, literally any swinging dick could file one. Nick, at the time, said he was considering submitting one but he was waiting on that, and I suspected it might be as close to the final day as possible to submit one. I can now confirm that Nick has submitted one.

EDIT: Nick right now to the CoA:

 

[Kosher Salt]

Okay; can anyone post the rest of it?

 

[Spectre_06]

I can not. Nick only posted that, and he's probably going to go over it tonight, since tomorrow he has PPP on.

It's good that Nick didn't let word of this get out beforehand. If Lawtwitter had known he was going to do this, they would have all decided they needed to get on the train and the poor CoA would have had to deal with a ridiculous number of briefs from people larping as Lawyers. "No, your honors, I'm not a lawyer, but I've played the intern to a lawyer on Twitter, so I totes know what I'm talking about!"
