Greer v. Moon, No. 20-cv-00647 (D. Utah Sep. 16, 2020)

[goblin enby]

I think Russell is happy for the case to remain inactive for as long as possible. It means he doesn't have to deal with bias judges not understanding how evil Kiwi Farms is, or with the criminal activities of stalker Hardin.

He often engages in a form of magical thinking where things being delayed into the future will eventually result in the outcome that he wants without him actually doing anything in the intervening time to make it happen. E.g. his ever-moving album release dates or the "90 day stay" that would somehow enable him to have enough money to pay the DJF to come back. So as long as the case is alive he has a chance to somehow win it.

I just became aware that nearly 5 months after the Florida case ended, the Judge there found out that Russ lied about his address. I don't think this was posted here. Wasn't on Courtlistener either. Updated.

I think Russell's litigation serves a similar function to his career as a brothel owner. Both allow him to larp as a man of substance -- a person of some importance. A white collar businessman who negotiates real estate deals in the Nevada desert and litigates against those bastards who have breached his all important intellectual property rights.

It all acts as a barrier against the intrusive reality of his life as a pug-ugly failure who delivers Door Dash for a living.

Given that, I think he'd be happy for the case to keep ticking over and doing nothing -- as long as it doesn't cost him any money. When it starts costing him though, he'll want it to go away.

Nothing messes with the whore fund.

Damn I have you on thread watched and I thought this was new court orders. I got so excited.

Josh just mentioned on MATI that he has 40-50k left in the litigation fund

Mr Hardin can add this to the 'Life and Lies of Russell Greer' file, although it was probably an innocent goof. Resoectfully, Plaintiff does have a job y'honor.

Out of 150k raised last Feb? That's... honestly a bit discouraging. I hate being a doomer, but it's possible we could win the battle and still lose the war, unless Nool can find a more stable way to shut up and take my money.

IIRC it was well over $200k. The $150k is just what was tracked with debit cards, it didn't include USPS money orders/mailed checks/crypto donations.

i am betting someone told her or issue was also found in snail mail.

Are you KIDDING ME? That's utterly AMAZING! The amount of work done for that $100k is absolutely astounding. Hardin can always take funds via the IOLTA account. That can't ever be shut down. But now I'm seeing there were crypto, money orders and mailed checks and such. Still utterly amazing. Even if there was another $100k in the fund.

You know how they say you can only pick two out of the three categories - good, fast and cheap? I think we have managed to get all three. Even though the "cheap" part is only by lawyer's standards.

 

[Your Starter for 10]

Don't think of it as losing $150K. Think of it as our boy Hardin gaining it. And he probably deserved more. Imagine trying to write a well reasoned response to a Russfiling. Also minus fees, expenses and whatever pittance he pays his paralegals (who deserve even less since people here do most of their research for them and they make typos).

Also didn't a big chunk of that go to 'help' that Australian retard who chose "do nothing" as his legal defense.

The amount of work done for that $100k is absolutely astounding.

That's $100,000 , two years worth of pay for the average person, given to an office nerd, to finance that office nerd providing legal opinions to an authority who does not give a fuck about the law or anyones legal opinion, and has ostensibly promised to take a break from golfing to make a vibes-based binding decision for all involved, at some point in the next 10 years. At the behest of someone with (what were the fees again?) $170 of skin in the game. It is astounding, I cant deny that. I'm reminded of that golden oldie Onion bit where the CNN panel all sit around arguing about the merits of the national money hole.

Look Hardin is great, I'm not disparaging Hardin here, but Hardin has damn near been bought a house behind this, and what does Josh or anyone else have to show for it?

 

[AnIntrepidCrow]

A good chunk of that went to nulls retarded Australian buddy, so it wasnt even all spent here. That's pretty good tbh.

 

[Ted's of Beverly Hills]

The money has gone to its intended purpose - preventing retarded pro se gimps from winning default judgments unopposed. We were never guaranteed any other result than that.

Deterrence, a firm warning against every fucking tard that gets their panties in a twist because we have the audacity to archive their behaviour.

Think of it as Nuclear Sperg Theory.

Though extremely hard to directly quantify, an answer is "Kiwifarms still being up" or "Not having even more frivolous lawsuits". The success of the fundraiser and subsequent legal nonsense may act as a deterrent for other anti-farms retards, it may already have discouraged some people, that was part of the whole point. A number can't really be put on something so abstract as "Some amount of bad things not happening" I'll admit, but I remain confident that all of this was the right choice.

Boy thats some expensive fuckin deterrence. It's good to know that anyone with Russell Greer's unique set of skills can cost anyone $100,000+x at any time if they want to pay the price of deterrence.

I remain confident that all of this was the right choice.

Right choice? Sure. Good use of money? I cant delude myself. Not even the judge gives a fuck about what the law says or demands, despite six figures being thrown at a guy to explain that law to him. This system is too clusterfucked for me to feign respect.

It worked against Melinda Scott's endless bullshit. With luck, it'll work here too.

Well, Null does have to pay the Nigger of the Internet tax.

If that's cheap in lawyer terms that just goes to show how broken our justice system is. If litigation is prohibitively expensive then the law only exists to serve the rich.
