Wonder if the bakery has the courage to seek the college real estate, evict the lunatics and sell the property.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

Or better yet, run the place as a conservative university. Maybe bring in some administrators from Hillsdale College.

[HombreSecreto]

Seize the administration and “fill in the blank” studies buildings, convert them to Section 8 housing and bring in the ferals to terrorize the rest of the campus.

A foreclosure on the college as it were.

Go after the school’s assets.

The bakery should put a lien on every bit of real estate and capital assets Oberlin owns.

Oberlin was required to post an appeal bond in order to appeal. They paid a hefty fee to the bonding company and the bond holder has liens on Oberlin assets to collect on. IIRC Oberlin has something like $700 million in endowments plus physical assets. They’re not hurting for $$$.

The Oberlin appeal is based on a claimed technical error but they keep trying to litigated the fact finding trial and introduce evidence into the appeal. This is not allowable. Appeals are based on errors, not a do over.

Oberlin is the perfect combination of a stupid client with expensive but incompetent lawyers. The stay of award payment granted by the appeals court expired when the appeal court issued its ruling in favor of Gibsons. Oberlin filed their subsequent appeal to the supreme court but negligently did not request for a stay of the judgment from the Supreme Court. Gibsons pounced on this and has a request to the Supreme Court to order immediate payment of the award.

Gibsons is also appealing on a separate issue than Oberlin. Gibsons is appealing an Ohio state law limiting punitive damages based on the claim that the law is against the state constitution. If Gibsons succeeds in this appeal, the damage award would increase by about $12 million. My opinions….
