Michael/ Lauren civil trial update February 9

That would be awesome if they have them!

And now I am wondering if they will be introduced as evidence and shown to the jury. Even heavily redacted, I imagine they would be weighty ammunition for the defense.

Are you an attorney?

If yes, ok I sorta get interpretations can be different depending what side you are on.

If no, WHY are you debating this so much? Not meaning to be catty, but I really do not understand why you cannot accept what has been explained by the good folks here who ARE attorney’s are explaining.

Were you on the debate team in high school? If you weren’t they lost out.

As far as extensions go 4 months isn’t long at all. It speaks to them asking for the longest extension time that attorney thinks he can ask for that will be granted. And given they are new will most likely be granted.

There may be a game of new attorney carousel coming up as I believe they think their best bet is to $$ exhaust the defendants. Not just MB but RC and the older people too. They’ll take a settlement from wherever it comes.

That being said a judge gets weary of that game and can court order an attorney to remain on a case.

Are @Ekat and @Knights_Mom attorneys?

I believe @SierraMist is an attorney; someone said she is barred in three states including NJ. I trust everything SierraMist writes.

Someone suggested that ekat add the extension of casso to the end of her name. I think it would be more realistic to add Dali. I am betting that ekat is about ready to chop off an appendage.

That quote up above was @CurrentlyHorseless, not me.

I didn’t include the cross claims because they don’t matter unless a defendant enters into a settlement and/or the jury enters a judgment in LK’s favor.

Apples and oranges as our entire careers were based on the study, familiarity and application of law while yours was not.

I would say nice try but it was actually quite the crappy, ridiculous try. I expect more from you. Do better.

At least she had the guts to show up for hours and hours of questioning in front of the congressional committees hell bent on taking her out of the running in the next presidential campaign.

Edited to change he’ll to hell as my autocorrect is rather prim.

Though I love Dali’s work, and think he was a great artist, he was master of the surreal.

I think @ekat is much more of a realist :slight_smile: Artists that were central to the American Realism movement like Andrew Wyeth and Edward Hopper come to mind.

I vote for “Ekat Wyeth”

Sounds like Klingon LOL or maybe Elvish. Yes that’s it, Elvish.

At least you weren’t accused of sexism. :woman_shrugging:

CH seems more rested, and trying a TINY bit harder today.

But… she’s still not scoring goals. It’s gotta be frustrating.

@Maria specifically attempted to call me out for arguing with the “good folks here who ARE attorneys”.

I never argue with attorney SierraMist, and I don’t think the posters who engage in the legal discussion the most, you and Ekat, have represented themselves as attorneys.

I’m just clarifying who has the credentials and who doesn’t to Maria, who brought up the issue.

Not really, since CH’s unwillingness to learn or see opposing viewpoints would make her a poor debater. She’d be the weak point on her theoretical high school team.

I did not accuse you of sexism, VHM.

I asked you whether, in a statement describing the conditions under which one half of a household would be considered an “employee” of the other, in your view the statement holds equally well when the genders of the parties are reversed.

If you can reverse the genders and nothing changes, you’re not sexist.

I did finally understand the 51% in the first stage, and am greatly relieved that law, while complicated, is reasonably logical. This makes me very happy.

Anyone care to speculate who might be deposed as a fact witness? Would that group include JK, KK, RG, RC, maybe MHG, etc.? What about Mr. Davidson (Hay Guy), Ali Brock, Boyd Martin, Tarshis, etc.?

What about expert witnesses? I know it will include the medical personnel and probably the police officers who responded to the various 911 calls, but who else? Psychologists/psychiatrist?
