Vic Mignogna Lawsuit |OT| Hold My Beard (Update: Appeal lost, Mignogna must pay attorney fees to defendants)
- Thread starter Sibersk Esto
- Start date
as far as I saw it came up today but the judge didn't care. I don't think it was something the judge wanted to waste time talking about today. I doubt that it's completely forgotten but it didn't really come into play given the judge was already annoyed at Ty for all of the shananagins he pulled since august 30th.
Taking a look-over, sounds like it was a good day for justice, and a bad day for grifters and lazy high-pitched voice actors.
At this point it's out of my depth, but I wonder if it's just a matter of relevance. Wasn't the entire point of the hearing to see if Ty Beard had enough substance behind his case that it shouldn't be immediately struck down? The illegal stuff he's done is something else.
Looking further back in their twitter history, they're pretty ISWV-heavy, so there might be a reason their coverage of it leans a bit heavier on the Judge's disagreements with the defense at points.
But it seems pretty neutral so who knows.
We have existing transcripts of hearings where the judge openly stated that he didn't understand what the point of it was, why it isn't just solved the by the defendants saying they aren't going to tweet anymore, and so on. If there's any doubt as to how the judge views the case or carries himself, that's what we have to look at.
Why is Greg Doucette the only person on twitter capable of using threads correctly?!
That's what I would assume. If that other post is correct and Beard said he thought he could notarize via phone then he openly admitted to fraud which will have to be explored later.
I can't imagine you can become a notary without it being hammered into you that the other people need to be present.... but then again I didn't think you could pass the bar without knowing laws.
just a quick search though
covers not once, but twice that you need to have people present for the process :P
I was wondering why there were some Vic Stans running unopposed in those tweets. Still, they don't appear to be lying so I guess I'm okay with reading some more details even with that slant
Yeah looking into their timeline...ISWV focused stuff and the very recent GamerGate stuff (Blaming Zoe for the suicide). So yeah they have some deep biases already that may be coming into their recount of what occurred, pretty much all we can do is cross-reference it with LawofTheGame's notes and eventually the transcript.
It feels like the kind of dumb shit that co-counsel was probably meant to be there to stop Beard from saying.
Reading through those 2 other recaps, it is becoming increasingly clear that a mute break dancing clown, or a really well trained bear replacing Ty Beard at that hearing would not have changed the outcome at all.
How in the world does this happen?
Miranda rights will need to be changed: "You have the right to an attorney, but you can't pick Ty Beard!"

Are we sure this isn't a lost episode of The Simpsons?
Feels like a major Lionel Hutz move.
OH NO, THERE'S NO FIGHTING BACK AGAINST #METOO! WHAT HORRIBLE FUTURE WE ARE HEADING TOWARDS!!Stans taking today well...
Edit: also lol at this idiot thinking we live in a shonen jump series.
The judge didn't waste much time with it because all of those affidavit/declarations were coming from non-hostile parties. While they could have wasted time trying to determine if Ty violated notary rules, that wasn't really a matter for this hearing. The judge most likely had no issue believing that those were the declarants' statements, and that even if the declarants didn't technically sign the documents themselves, that they at least gave Ty permission to sign for them.
Most of the time I just browse this thread but goddamn I'm getting some great laughs. Between Beard's immense incompetence (notarize by phone hahahaha) and the meltdowns on Twitter from Vic Stans this has been a great read.
It's hilarious as shit that so many people are trying to spin up that there is a conspiracy against Vic like his stupid case is a major political battle . Really shocked how many people haven't just realized the case was bad and Beard was a shit lawyer.

What is this reality they live in? How much paint do I have to huff to get on this level?
"This is the part where the protagonist starts to win!" Oh my god...
Stans taking today well...
"Are we going to the supreme court?"
Sounds like...hearsay :)
"Laughing?! Must have been the Judge was paid off, not that the Lawyer was incompetent!"
Regardless of Vic, why does it seem every Dragon Ball YouTuber supports him? Can't even look at my recommendations without it being filled with Vic's shit and people calling Funi hypocrites because they think saying dumb and questionable things a decade ago is the same as being accused of sexual harassment.
The fact lack of evidence was turned back on Ty after months of ISWV's "Hurr no evidence" claims is just beautifully poetic.
I mean if you're just on the DB money train instead of a broader anime/manga perspective it's normal you would engage in clickbait shit considering DB is not something you can provide enough content to sustain a channel on youtube.
Simple economics, it's easier to live off clickbait and the rando DB news.
Especially with how garbo the manga of Super is.
TeamFourStar stayed silent though that was probably for the best.
They're big enough to have Toei notice them directly.
There would have been ZERO upside on them taking a stance here.
It would have made literal zero sense for them to take a stance one way or another.
Oh I know, but I also recall that historically they seem to not be fond of Vic in the slightest and probably wanted to avoid being caught in law stuff. ISWV would've absolutely weaponized the questionable legality of their operation if they said anything.
I only look at a few Dragon Ball YouTuber and most of them are for Dokkan Battle and Legends and they had nothing to do with Vic one way or another. The only 'mainstream' Dragon Ball channel I regularly watch is Geekdom and he kept his ass out of this too as far as I know.
So really sick of seeing Youtubers like Yellowflash when I literally never clicked one of their videos.
At the very least they would have mass false reported DBZA and had there Channel and livelihood destroyed.
Which shows how much intelligence they have as that's what they think happened to Vic.
Person with the Persona character avatar must not have played the game since the Phantom thieves would had stolen Vic's heart and have him confess.Stans taking today well...
