It’s almost as though she makes stuff up. Well, just because you roll cat scat in sugar and sell it as Turkish Delight doesn’t mean everyone believes you for long.

Will the lawsuit stop the sale of the property? Wouldn’t it be better to sell it so there would be proceeds available from the sale? I’m not familiar with the legal ramifications.

I suspect she’s hoping the lawsuit stops the sale of the property so Barisone can’t pay his legal team.

Eh, I’d expect no less really.
I’m still curious about under which law she justifies all of these recordings that she allegedly took. Unless someone already covered that but I cannot recall.

Uhh, doesn’t he own a farm in his own name in Florida? He can sell that.

It might mean that the owners couldn’t dispose of property until the suit is settled. This is a way to keep subjects of civil suits from stripping off or hiding their own assets so they can refuse to pay damage settlements. You can easily imagine a scenario where someone signs over big assets to a family member and then says “I have no cash to pay damages, you can’t get blood from a stone.”
I don’t know if that’s how the law works in this instance but it might. In that case the civil suit only needs to be plausible enough that it is allowed to proceed.
As far as arrests I am sure if there were any other arrests they would be in the news. I think this is just fabulation.

Fictitious parties: essentially placeholders until (through discovery) their identities are found. For example: if you are in a car accident, and you sue the driver, your lawyer should also include a couple of John Does, in case the car wasn’t owned by the driver, or in case a passenger in the car jerked the wheel or distracted the driver or whatever. Essentially, you can begin the case against them before you know who they are and if one of the initially fictitious parties is identified, they can be charged and have to pay damages. In this case, if it turns out RC didn’t actually own the gun, or if there are other silent parties in the LLC, those people can be sued by LK under this complaint as well.

Kanarek’s suit claims she has suffered permanent injures, as well as severe emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life and wages. She is seeking damages for medical expenses, as well as pain and suffering.
Both Kanarek and Barisone are accomplished equestrians. Kanarek had won several national medals, and Barisone was a member of the 2008 United States Olympic team in Beijing. He also coached 2016 Olympic bronze medalist in dressage, Alison Brock.

What was she doing before that earned her wages? Truly curious.
Question related to the article linked above. (Quote is a copy and paste from the article.)
Barisone, 54, an Olympic dressage rider and coach, is accused of shooting Kanarak point-blank in the chest several times following months of an escalating landlord-tenant dispute between the pair.
Doesn’t several mean three?
I find it interesting that the one article (that the above article links to) says LK does not remember calling CPS and this article says she denies making that call. Those are two very different things.

Being an accomplished equestrian, particularly in dressage, doesn’t really translate to all the monies. Prizes in dressage aren’t really like prizes in show jumping, and even prizes in show jumping are way less awesome when you realize a) how few riders own their horses b) how expensive being a full time professional show jumping rider costs.
I would say that Michael’s money is made primarily from lessons and sales, not competition, at all. Lauren being an amateur, her income from horses is likely right around zero. She certainly isn’t flipping a lot of horses for profit.

As I view it as a red herring, I don’t think it matters how she earns money, or even if she does. Lots of equestrians don’t really earn money, or at least don’t really earn money that would in any way enable them to continue being professional equestrians.
She has to demonstrate that she was earning a salary and that there are verifiable losses. His attorneys get to depose her, her employer, her finances, etc. The burden of proof is on her.

What about future lost wages, say if she was in training with plans to become a coach or trainer eventually?

That is true in Canada. I am not sure it is true in the US. The article says losses for suffering and also medical expenses. I think permanently unemployed people have an easier time with civil suite layouts in the US. Might vary by jurisdiction.
As far as lost future wages you’d need to prove they were realistic estimates.
A young medical student just about to start a career would be different from a 40 year old trust fund layabout with no marketable skills and no coherent previous employment.

I have no idea what a national medal is.
You can win a national championship.
You can earn a bronze or silver or gold medal which is basically an achievement badge for grownups and does not require ever winning or even placing in a class. LK has neither bronze nor silver yet and probably never will.

But as per usual when journalists get into background details on subjects they don’t understand there is a slight fog of innacuracy hearsay and unchecked facts.
Journalists do make an attempt to get the legal facts straight in stories because the roof will cave in on them if they get those wrong. But the deeper background can be a muddle especially if those talking to the press deliberately lie. As people often do about their own importance.
