If you read my posts, you would see the subject for that post is RG.

I hope MB heals and recovers and is able to resume his life. I even posted that several times going way back.

Question for the legal peeps:

One of the filings by Nagel on Thursday was for a protective order. What is that about?

You are correct and I apologize. I also hope Michael is able to resume his life and career free from the terrors of the past five years.

As for RG, he appeared to be happy at one time in NC and even testified to that idea. At one time he was a talented employee with friends and respect. What a shame his life has taken the path it has.

It is time for Michael Barisone to be released and all parties free to resume their lives.

If you read the filing, it looks like a mistake in the caption, because all it contains is a request to postpone decision on the motion to compel Lauren Kanarek to go to NJ for her deposition.

They want to go to the superior court of New Jersey for what?

This is the proposed attached form of order Bruce references, which is really just saying Lauren Kanarek shouldn’t have to go to Jersey, which is why I think it’s a mistake in the caption, unless NJ names things differently than I’m used to.

The case already is in Superior Court - he’s just saying he’s going to ask the Court formally to grant his order on that date.

He calls her his employer. I’m not sure it’s love that keeps him around.

Except the first paragraph also refers to a protective order. And in reading it again, it is a notice that the submitting attorney intends to apply for a protective order on Sept. 23 at 0900.

So is he filing for a protective order for LK? Or for himself? And why is he waiting till Sept. 23 to file it?

Legal people - is it typical that a lawyer announces they are applying for a protective order in the future?

This would seem to imply that they expect MB to be released after his Krol hearing, regardless of any fantasies posted on SM. (No need for protection from someone lodged indefinitely in a psych facility!)

ETA: I’m assuming that even if they didn’t include the correct order, they are planning on requesting the protective order and just screwed up which filing was for which. Seems about on par with the quality of work from that side.

That is sort of what I was thinking. Is Sept. 23 the new date for MB’s Krol hearing?

It’s unclear because the notice doesn’t match the proposed order. On its face it doesn’t make sense at all.

Edit to add: also, his supporting docs are just a copy of his answer to the motion to compel, so it really doesn’t add up.

I should hope that once Michael is released that both sides have protective orders in place.

Looks like someone used an old motion and order form and forgot to update the caption or double check it.

I just looked on the GoFundMe. No hearing dates mention there.

Theoretically though, you wouldn’t set that date as the same date you know one party and his attorneys are going to be otherwise occupied with another court proceeding.

Thank you for the GFM reminder!

Any request for a protective order can be made verbally or in writing. If in writing then an affidavit explaining why such an order is needed should be included. If requested in the form of a motion or cross motion then affidavits of service are a must.

To include this form of proposed order is a little off because typically an order of protection needs room for specific guidelines as shown below.

There are specific provisions like shall not stalk, menace, harass, threaten or ne within 300 feet from Jane Doe.

This gives an idea. I couldn’t easily find a NJ one.

Honestly, I’d think a zoom deposition would be a lot harder for the person being deposed than in person. Granted you may be more comfortable, but focus and awareness of the other people, reading the room, all that is going to be gone.

And for sure as the “losing” attorneys, I’d insist it’s at a law firm of my choosing, and she’s paying the cost to those lawyers\court reporter ecm, for their time.

As the attorney of someone being deposed by zoom, I’d be worried whether I can really have a quiet Convo with her in a timely fashion.
