So if the family actually takes Kanye to court couldn’t he just pull up the report showing the fentanyl in his system? Or get his own experts? I guess what I’m getting at is of it would get Chauvin a new trial. Or if it could. That was such a strange and extremely biased trial and I would’ve thought any judge worth their salt would’ve declared a mistrial.
I have a friend who to this day believes it was all set up to spark rioting.
But I was just curious. I personally would love to see Kanye crush that greedy family in court.
I saw a clip of the dumb black lawyer who is filing the lawsuit. He thinks that there is an "Alex Jones" precedent, where you can just sue Right Wing people because they hurt your feelings. I'm not even kidding. He brought up Alex Jones by name.
George Floyd is dead. He cannot sue for defamation. Nobody else can sue on his behalf.
Apparently they are trying to sue for IIED - Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. This is laughable on its face. IIED has a large number of very strict elements. California courts have held for example "there can be no recovery for mere profanity, obscenity, or abuse... or insults, indignities or threats which are considered to amount to nothing more than mere annoyances" or "mere insults, indignities, threats, annoyances, petty oppressions, or other trivialities" & “It is not enough that the conduct be intentional and outrageous. It must be conduct directed at the plaintiff, or occur in the presence of a plaintiff of whom the defendant is aware.” The plaintiff also needs to suffer real damages, not just hurt feelings.
"harassment, misappropriation" are not real causes of action, nor would it ever make sense that they could be in any jurisdiction.
It's a bullshit lawsuit and the lawyer is filing it purely for the publicity and free advertising. And yes, it is being done because the lawyer honestly believes that the Alex Jones case represents a situation where Alex Jones didn't do anything wrong from a legal perspective, but instead got hammered because judges and the jury hated him and were biased against him personally. This lawyer thinks Kanye is similarly vulnerable.
Kanye's lawyers ought to immediately file a demurrer / motion to dismiss. That motion must be granted, because even if all allegations are taken as true, no valid claims have been stated as a matter of law. Any judge who does not grant a motion to dismiss such a case, is willfully defying the law and violating their oath. I wish I could say with confidence that that would not happen, but as far as I'm concerned, judges today are just politicians in robes, and I do not believe that Kanye would receive a fair and honest hearing from most Democrat judges, and especially not from jewish ones.
Yep, the precedent has been set.
There's justice, and there's whatever the fuck this is.
Don't forget disallow defense
But clearly they've claimed Floyd's name as intellectual property
