Michael Barisone/Lauren Kanarek Civil Suit

I could be reading incorrectly, whether true or not, (and I don’t believe it for one little minute) it really makes no sense that MB would invite LK’s parents to meet with him before meeting LK. I mean, why would MB even know LK.

What am I missing. It’s been a week.

In response to CH’s post saying that only an insider like LO would have known who was sending the texts that have only now just made public to us in recent filings, I was wondering what basis she has for that assumption based on the fact that only MB’s legal team knew about this as part of discovery.

As I understand it, it’s @erinmeri who considers people posting images with the one finger salute as low class.

But maybe it’s not worthy of criticism when it’s a member of the EIM. Who knows.

I believe there’s reciprocal agreements between Canada and some US border states. In looking out of curiosity I did find this. Not the same but still.

Answer to What will happen if an American visitor doesn’t pay for a parking ticket in Montreal, Canada? by Mark Shainblum https://www.quora.com/What-will-happen-if-an-American-visitor-doesnt-pay-for-a-parking-ticket-in-Montreal-Canada/answer/Mark-Shainblum-1?ch=15&oid=93983465&share=0f723c59&srid=Ggwra&target_type=answer

This says it may be possible. I guess if there’s a warrant issued maybe it’s possible?

Its so small I could not even tell what it was! LOL Honestly I never thought it was someone flipping the bird, but I guess I’m not hunting hard enough for things to take offense to.

And it makes zero sense that MB, out of the blue, would contact them and invite them to meet him and Justin unless someone had approached him about the Kanareks first (training Lauren and / or having Daddio sponsor him). Top level dressage trainers just don’t watch average ammies in a low level class and proclaim, “Somebody bring that girl to me. I must train her!”

The narrative, as I understand it and have been told, is that LK went down to FL with her trainer, and RG was in tow. Said trainer was going to different clinics with other trainers, including MB, where LK opportunistically approached MB and talked herself and her family up, eager to get in his graces and his barn in FL and NJ. Then she went back to NC to relocate to FL for a bit to be with MB and then relocated back to NJ after the seasonal period was over, to be with MB there, with the understanding that she would eventually be finding lodging for herself and RG, which apparently didn’t happen because JK didn’t want to pay more money - he was said to have set a monthly limit for what he would give her for whatever it was she was up to - for additional housing there or keep LK in his home.

I am assuming that MBs legal team, and therefore an insider like LO, would have access to the unredacted versions of the exhibit. We outsiders have access only to the redacted version that was posted.

All the lawyers would have access to the unredacted texts and would be able to see exactly who wrote the incoming “homeless” text.

Similar to “cry havoc”?

I agree the lawyers certainly have access to the unredacted texts.

My question was would/ could they share this info (pre-trial) with LO? Particularly since LO is not legally tied to him as a wife or blood relative. I was genuinely asking how much confidentiality surrounds case discovery items to people who are not the defendant or legally tied to defendant.

Did I? That’s odd and doesn’t sound like me, given I probably flip someone the bird at least once a day. I drive in NYC, after all.

@KurPlexed, love your nail polish!

This question may have been asked and answered as I’m just catching up, but what in the he!! does LO have to do with the court filings or the exhibits? Is she a plaintiff or dependent in the civil cases? :thinking:

MB can authorize that, yes.

I am not misrepresenting them. You lay them all out there repeatedly (see corgi on the merry-go-round above), often making excuses for IM/JK - even praising him as being credible. Everyone can see those posts for themselves and offer their own opinion. No straw men - or hay men - involved.

Also, there is no need to tag someone when you are already quoting them. It is just… redundant. No matter who does it.

But you do you.

I have no idea. I doubt she would have access to everything but I don’t know.

Probably like confidentiality in a medical setting, I would think.

If someone who is not a relative walks into a hospital and asked for information about a patient, the medical staff does not disclose anything.

But the patient could authorize it by saying, “That’s my friend/dogwalker/fishing buddy, and you can give that person the information.”

They have to authorize it in writing - not just verbally. In my state it has to be witnessed too.
