Vic Mignogna Lawsuit |OT| Hold My Beard (Update: Appeal lost, Mignogna must pay attorney fees to defendants)
- Thread starter Sibersk Esto
- Start date
If it's anything like RateMyProfessor it's mostly going to be salt.
If a judge ever ruled on civil or IP/business cases then of course they'd have poor reviews, those types of cases always make (at least) one of the parties mad.
I know this transcript is missing things that the person couldn't hear but I want to believe this line is word for word what Beard said
Lol aye. I wan't to believe he has a tick where he just randomly inserts candy into sentences.
Your honor ... TOBLERONE ... that tweet is clearly defamatory.
So it just occurred to m.
idiocracy was a good concept but a bad movie 0/10
By the way. The existence of Nick's show and Vic's fandom were brought up to the judge months ago, with the judge even asking if he himself was on the show. So I'm thinking he's had plenty of time and even a personal reason to be check it out, and remember that Ty Beard has openly been talking about his strategies and misinterpretations of the law on Nick's show even recently.
I don't have time to look over the transcript right now so maybe it came up, but I'm thinking that it's entirely possible that the judge is "biased" in the sense that he's actually been following the case and has no reason to give Beard the benefit of the doubt on his filing when he's already heard him talking about them.

The judge was extremely nice to Ty and literally walked him through the entire thing.
Ty is the one that had nothing to show and couldn't make sense of his evidence.
And for the record it's not because "there was nothing to show" it's because Ty is that incompetent.
Do these idiots think the judge just goes into the courtroom without reviewing the case before hand at all?
It's not like going to the movies you morons, though, it was certainly a show.

They think whatever they want to think to make them think this was in any way not the way the law should work. Many think he was influenced by an outside Twitter mob. From all the transcripts, he kinda sounded like he was not up to speed with any of that mess. Up until now, they were counting on this being such a slam dunk because this was a Republican judge in a Republican state. They were all screaming, "We'll see what the truth is when it gets to court!!!" Some were even saying they'd admit they were wrong if things didn't go their way. But that sure isn't what's happening now.
"What do you mean the judge read up on the case? Aren't judges supposed to be oblivious and keep changing sides?"
"This is what happens when you get all your legal knowledge from Ace Attorney".
"This is what happens when you get all your legal knowledge from Ace Attorney".
Translation: Even Nick realizes he can't pull his usual grifter shit to salvage this, and needs time to think up a new angle.
By sober analysis he means he needs time to recover from drinking his problems away after that show yesterday.
Man, this post has levels.
We can start putting scare quotes around "lawyer" now because he would have been able to tweet during the hearing if he had presented his bar license.
He won't need that Fireball to get wasted with the amount of spin that'll be happening.
Greg tweeted saying that the top secret super lawyer cabal (him and the other twitter lawyers) can't really justify paying for the transcripts, because they're over £1k in cost. He's going to set up a GoFundMe for it instead, any extra money the make will go to repay Shane Holmberg (who has been paying out of pocket for all those filings we've been reading!) and then left overs will be donated to RAINN.
Transparency on how money gets spent?
The nerve of them!
Really makes you think.
That sad thing is in the late amendment that Ty submitted he actually claimed the Defendants were using the "Seinfeld Defense" as if we're a real legal concept and not just a meme.
The sad thing was that they were mocking this quote in the one case where it actually is valid advice.
That whole actual malice thing still hasn't sunk in.
Edit: OMG we really are dealing with the brightest minds of a generation here.

They are commenting on posts from 2010, apearently when the judge was on his profile the last time.
TCPA, the most broad and most aggressive Anti-Slapp statute in the country, was passed with over 2/3ers of votes by a Republican state Legislature in a Republican state, signed by a Republican governor in 2011. And defended as constitutional by a Republican State Supreme Court.
Like, it suddenly isn't valid today or something?
Mind you, HB 2730 tries to reign some stuff, but that doesn't apply here.
Let's also bear in mind that Vic's fanbase has already been brought up as a point against him in this case.
There are goldfish that learn faster than this.
The words "Cotton", and "Bold" spring to mind for some reason.
But this is Texas we're talking about! It's completely different here than anywhere else that have Anti-slapp laws! Let me cite an Australian case to prove my point!
