What a cocknozzle

It's a conspiracy, the Mayberry Macivallians live*

LOL, they all but say Dan Mullen will be one of the "John Doe" witnesses. This is high comedy.

 

[Xenomorph]

If you don't commit, we won't acquit!

Hey recruits...when someone in Oxford offers you $$$ and free stuff on your visits, don't take it or you might get sued.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Could Hugh, Barney, and others be deposed in this case?

 

[BlueRidgeMtns]

A few things:

1) Who are all of the John Doe folks?
2) Did he record conversations with customers stating they would not shop at RR anymore? Otherwise, how do you prove they said it and that they actually stopped shopping their due to LL's statements?
3) 17 this dude

I'd have no problem defending that...I'd love to be the attorney that is hired ....this is just an attempt to harass [FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]....the first thing I would do is get a change of venue. Because RR filed and not the owner individually, I'd move this to federal court. Because they do business over the Internet, (interstate commerce) and the defendents are in different states, this certainly meets the criteria. [/FONT]

 

[Arloguthrie]

They've also noticed the depositions of Leo Lewis & Kobe Jones for July 19. Doesn't mean they'll necessarily go forward on that date, though.

Matt Wyatt say...

"Yeah State fans are thinking differently derp derp!", considering the lawsuit and all the "snickers" we've had over the investigation...

So we're supposed to be worried about this lawsuit? As if it's gonna bring down State? Good Lord...

 

[DerHntr]

If it was only Kobe and Lewis, they may have an easier case to prove. How do they explain that Miller also picked on Rags as the one company giving him and his OM football playing son free gear? There are a lot of other places to get OM gear.

1-15 is just a placeholder for all the folks he hopes to drag into this thing.

By naming them in this suit as unknown he doesn't have to file another lawsuit to get more people sued.

At least one of the defendants is a MS resident, so it's not quite that cut and dried. It's still perhaps possible, I think, depending on who has or has not been served.

 

[coach66]

You have to connect the dots here, the theory is someone in the 1-15 group

orchestrated this whole thing, including Miller.

 

[DerHntr]

orchestrated this whole thing, including Miller.

I'd bet a decent sum of money that they never find a connection between Miller and our players.

It almost feels like a commercial for his business. You know a lot of the local mouth breathers will go buy an extra baby blue Columbia shirt just to show their solidarity.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Does RR sell the "I Stand with Coach Freeze" t-shirts? Egg Bowl Attire - check

^^^^

I can hear them checking out now..."I'm so, so sorry you're having to put up with those stupid Bullfrauds from MOOU! I hope they all die and burn in hell. I just want you to know that we're praying for you, hun. Do you have a Facebook page?"

Sorry, but the case is not removable to federal court. You have a MS LLC plaintiff and MS defendants. No diversity of citizenship.

Classy

Matt works for Richard Cross...so there is that.

 

[Ishmael]

Could Hugh, Barney, and others be deposed in this case?

Absolutely. There are some limits to discovery, but pretty much anything relevant to a claim or defense is fair game. Since there's apparently allegations that coaches directed recruits to the store, it's highly likely a number of current and former coaches will be deposed.

I bet the NCAA investigation documents will be subpoenaed too, which should be interesting.

 

[coach66]

Maybe we can get it moved to Waynesboro*

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I hope everyone gets subpoenaed... Freeze. Farrar, Leo, Kobe, AJ, Mullen, Tunsil, BJork, Chuck, Yancy, Rosebowl, Kiffin, Saunders, Luke,....lets put it all out on the table

 

[thatsbaseball]

If you don't rue , we will sue !

 

[Xenomorph]

Can LL and KJ pay their legal fees from the Opportunity Fund?? **

 

[ShrubDog]

Sorry, but the case is not removable to federal court. You have a MS LLC plaintiff and MS defendants. No diversity of citizenship.

So will the FBI be investigating this along with the Tunsil leaker?

 

[DerHntr]

Sorry, but the case is not removable to federal court. You have a MS LLC plaintiff and MS defendants. No diversity of citizenship.

Bullet point #2 on the first page of the lawsuit says otherwise.

"2. Defendant Lindsey Miller is a resident citizen of the state of Georgia..."

"2. Defendant Lindsey Miller is a resident citizen of the state of Georgia..."

That's not how it works. There has to be complete diversity of citizenship, meaning none of the defendants can be a resident of the same state as the plaintiff. It only takes one defendant to destroy diversity. Here you have 2 MS resident defendants and a MS plaintiff. So it's not removable.

Nice catch. I'm glad to see Ole Miss people are finally at least throwing out some legal arguments (even if they are flawed) instead of just denying wrong doing.

 

[dog12]

Could Hugh, Barney, and others be deposed in this case?

Not sure who the attorneys will be for the defendants, but THIS has to be done.

If this were my case, the #1 priority would be figuring out a way to connect Hugh Freeze, Barney Farrar, Ross Bjork, Jeffrey Vitter, etc. to the case and require them to appear for a deposition.

Shouldn't be too difficult.

Those depositions would be fun . . . especially if the attorneys work at the NCAA.

 

[Shmuley]

5 pages? 2 counts? Extremely tenuous jurisdictional grounds? 15 "John Does"? Probably facing significant hurdles with statutes of limitation on both counts. This is nothing more than a continuation of the bjork/freeze/vitter "throw **** against the wall and see if it sticks" approach. 15 John Does, Merkel? This is nothing more than a fishing expedition masquerading as a lawsuit. It's the proverbial "we know somebody is behind this, but we don't know who, so we are going to place hold with John Does and abuse the discovery process to get names." Has as much chance as Jackie's ill-advised lawsuit.

 

[dawgstudent]

Damn. It's like you were on the consulting team. What's your billable rate?

 

[Shmuley]

Ahem. Federal question? And don't say there isn't potentially one.

 

[DerHntr]

That's not how it works. There has to be complete diversity of citizenship, meaning none of the defendants can be a resident of the same state as the plaintiff. It only takes one defendant to destroy diversity. Here you have 2 MS resident defendants and a MS plaintiff. So it's not removable.

So it's "some diversity of citizenship" but it's not removable because of the way diversity of citizenship is categorized. Got it.

I'm not claiming to know crap about legal issues. I made my comment simply based on what you said in the previous post.

 

[Arloguthrie]

Five "I Stand With Freeze" sweatshirts/hr, which seems fair.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Look at that cuck

What is the federal question?
