Shouldn’t be for that reason.
Partial. Judge S issued one order that Granted those motions in part, and denied in part, so Partial.
If you look at the Case Summary you see that word used.

Oh, I do not disagree with this at all!
I personally think it is important that the thread stay here in dressage so it is easily found by non-COTH members who google Lauren Kanarek’s name, so they can see her, and her family’s, outbursts and all the other information about them that keeps coming out.

Moving the thread wouldn’t prevent JK and KK from reading.

No, but whoever took it upon themselves to write @BigMama1‘s employer and trainer is a banned user, according to Mod_1. So it should make that sort of harassment of posters more difficult

It would not be too difficult to make a new user ID and gain access to the restricted section. The new user would have to restrain herself however and not comment.

Only if the person who is doing the harassing is rational, and clearly they are not because they are picking a poster who has gone out of their way to give Lauren Kanarek the benefit of the doubt in every situation.

Off topic alert-since we are in a holding pattern until new info is released I wanted to share a book I am reading. Those who are interested in the legal process might enjoy it.
It is called Tough Cases: Judges tell the Stories of some of the Hardest Decisions They’ve ever Made
Two of the cases discussed are Judge George Greer and the Terry Schiavo case and Judge Jennifer Bailey and the Elian Gonzalez case.
I would be interested in hearing if anyone has read the book and what they thought.

That did occur to me. But so far most of the banned posters have not shown much ability to restrain themselves.

Obviously someone is lol. It makes no sense though - nothing a small group of people discuss amongst themselves on the internet is going to have any bearing on the case one way or another

To behave like the K Klan does would wear me out. So busy keeping track of who is saying what, contacting employers and trainers about random posters behaviors and trying to keep out of the deep end of the pool. Must be exhausting to be them.

I read some of the E. Jean Carroll vs. trump deposition that was released. The lawyer for Ms. Carroll is Roberta Kaplan. Ms. Kaplan asked trump a question and his lawyer objected. She said: “What’s your objection, sir?” Mr. Madaio: “It’s an objection based on relevance.” Ms. Kaplan: “There’s no relevance objections at depositions.”
So the defence attorneys can ask LK anything?

Pretty much. Though not my area of expertise. At the deposition of my dad’s wrongful death/rehab center case I was asked 1000 questions (or so it seemed) regarding our relationship. They were trying like hell to get info I was wrongfully suing as an estranged money grabbing relative even though it was me on the death certificate, me paying the rehab center bills, me as his medical proxy, me on every one of his legal and health papers and me who accompanied him upon his initial survival there and who was the only person who checked him in there. Even though I am the only member of the family as next of kin.

@ekat can probably answer more eloquently, but an attorney can object as to the form of the question, and that objection will be on the record, and the asking attorney may, or may not, rephrase, but the person must still answer. There are no rules of evidence as there are in court.

Still catching up but pausing to comment that I love Gaelic Storm and this song and am so glad someone reminded me it exists 
Re: native Americans and Canadians being taken from homes as kids, Anne with an E on Netflix started a really interesting bit about this in the final season. I still haven’t got over that show being canceled though, I would have loved to see where it went with that story.
Thoughts while reading everything:
Some people have NO idea what bullying is.
Some people, that may or may not be the same as the above people, give off this air of self righteousness and superiority that reminds me of the South Park smog/smug episode. If you know, you know.
And…WOW. I missed a lot. My boyfriend asks why I’m so obsessed with this whole case. I tell him, I wouldn’t say obsessed, it’s more like every time you think it’s letting up, something else crazy happens. You just can’t look away. And you couldn’t make this stuff up. Like the victim (“victim”?) and family/friends repeatedly popping up and making certain lower body parts of themselves.
Also I feel like everyone who catches up after being at least 1000 posts behind should get a gold star. Or a free bathrobe.

@iberianfan said this well, as did @Knights_Mom. Remember, there’s no judge at a deposition. Attorneys can object for the record, but the question still stands.
As long as you can loosely relate the question to a claim or potential defense at issue, it’s fair game.

Since a deposition is part of the discovery phase, it makes sense that there is a lot of latitude regarding questioning. I mean, how do you discover what may or may not be pertinent to the case if you don’t ask the question?
