DEFAMATION -- LIBEL AND SLANDER [Florida Law - FReepers Heed]

Florida Bar Association ^

[Chancellor Palpatine]

And you can FReepmail me for my ID provided you list all of your alias so I don't have to screw around at discovery. I've only one ID.

Your point?

Thanks for the explanation. So, just as a devil's advocate type of situation, suppose I, as a Maryland resident in Maryland, throw a rock in a non-criminal manner through the window of somebody's house across the border in Virginia. Which state's laws would apply?

If someone filed such a suit against me, they would have to prove that my statements were false. If the bible says my statements are true, then you will also have to dismantle the very basis for western law.

Please go back and read the bottom line on his post

[Porterville]

Yeah, assuming US Marshals have nothing to do than bother a bunch of political posters... give me a break.

[Modernman]

Gut feeling? No. It would be the domicile of the estate that controlled.

You are correct, sir.

From all accounts the latest threads on this case are the nastiest ever on this site and that says something.

My question is why take a chance by making outlandish statements that cannot be backed up on threads if they could get Jim and FR in trouble? Aren't we all adults that can control what we write on here?

From the sound of it, this case has enough facts that the outlandish speculation and comments were not necessary.

Like the Church of Scientology... and they have been VERY successful. Even if they don't win every case they file, they wear down the defendants and silence the critics.

Have they been successful. I can think of two of the lawsuits--one against a critic of the Church of Scientology, and one as a defendant in the woman who died in their care. Nasty, nasty litigation--and all coming out of Clearwater, Florida.

Just as an observation: In the language of tools, reason is a scalpel, while the law is a sledgehammer.

[TheAngryClam]

Just plead over the amount in damages- it's not a likely to recover, just possibly could.

And the limit is not very high considering the amount awarded in most tort cases these days.

Sorry, I don't plan on changing my tagline for quite a while.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

They are the official process servers for Federal Courts. You pay the check, they serve the papers when they get around to it.

They're remarkably efficient, too.

[Sloth]

I assume from the Florida focus that this is about the Schiavo case.

If so, let me state unequivocally that Michael Schiavo and George Felos are attempted murderers. Period.

I guess you can call the DA now.

[Catspaw]

Yeah, assuming US Marshals have nothing to do than bother a bunch of political posters... give me a break.

They don't see it that way. If they're assigned to do a job--for example, find you to serve you--they'll find you and serve you.

[jmc813]

Your statement is ludicrous in itself -- you cannot hide behind a screen name for long.

Anyone who in this day and age signs up to a site such as this using real identifying information and does not spoof their IP address is foolish IMO.

[LanPB01]

Are we following the second or third restatement of the law on conflicts?

[harrowup]

Document your claim or shut the hell up.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

The Bible would bear no weight in your suit. Its not evidence.

[Porterville]

Please, how can you spend your time worrying about such fancyfull nonsense??? You act like a court would actually take the case or a lawyer would even be so degenerate( possible but not likely)

This whole post is Bull Shi..

[exmarine]

Get ready to include the bible in your lawsuit as that will be my authority.
