A complaint doesn't need to allege evidence. Correct grasshopper. (Are you already studying Civ Pro?)
In a complaint you merely allege the facts that you intend to prove at trial. Whether you have the evidence to prove up the facts is for the jury to decide. The complaint must contain enough alleged "facts" to establish that there is a legitimate cause of action.

Correct grasshopper. (Are you already studying Civ Pro?) Yep. Along with Torts, Property, ethics, and Research and Writing, that rounds out my first semester curricula.

Don't misunderstand me. I think he is the right man for the trials and tribulations regarding the big problem. The WAR on terror. But his timidity in dealing with the bloated federal government and willingness to spend needlessly on social programs troubles me.
I think he has neither have the courage or willingness to admit total failure of the social engineering practiced in DC.
The words Social Security trust fund is so hollow. There is no FUND therfore no TRUST. Someone, in the future, will be tasked to fund social security. There is nothing in the bank drawing interest.
What brave soul has the timerity to say the words "there is no money in the trust fund, only promises (IOUs).
I will not stake my retirement or future on that program.

I was trying not to make a judgment until this all shakes out. Though, I have to admit, I'm skeptical of the charges.
As woman, if any man started speaking to me in that manner, they wouldn't finish the conversation. And that would be the last time that loser would attempt to speak to me like that. I certainly wouldn't continue private meetings. So, I can't understand, in one paragraph she went to dinner on such and such day and he said blah blah blah and she was discusted. Then the next paragraph, she went to an Italian restaurant with him on another day and then he said. Why was she encouraging it? Something doesn't add up here.

You really should have taken Crim law in first semester. Crim law is where you really learn how to think like a lawyer and analyze laws and facts. Torts is ok, but there are too many nuances in tort law that really have no basis in reality.
Crim law is more concrete and clear and has 1000 years of history behind it. That is why most law schools include it in the first year curriculum. Civ pro is something you should only learn after you have taken torts and contracts and property. It is like learning algebra before you learn to add and subtract.

Speaking as an ex-attorney. It is my understanding that an "ex-attorney" is a disbarred attorney. Are you inactive, or disbarred?
BTW Jude, don't let the naysayers discourage you. You'll make a great attorney.
To: P-Marlowe
I have been trying to get this answered.
In the complaint, the lengthy phone passages are NOT quoted but are indented paragraph form without quotes.
O'Reilly said:
xxxxx blah blah
O'Reilly boasted:
xxxxx blah blah
While shorter passages are quoted.
O'Reilly boasted, "Blah Blab"
Is this significant?
To: WildTurkey
Ummmmmm . . . . what?

I feel dirty having just skipped through a few pages. Disgusting! You're right, he is done, caput, finished if this is true. Especially if she has tapes.

Agreed. It's true that he was her boss. But her claims that she agreed to go to dinner, etc. "only if things would be professional," etc., don't ring true. It's like the old joke of the guy who keeps telling the other person to pull his finger, and the other person who keeps falling for it.
Fall for it once, shame on O'Reilly. Fall for it for the nth time, and her claims to be shocked at his behavior lose credibility.

Oh right. Some crank on the internet is going to change my mind and make me eat $10k in student loans. It's not like I haven't heard every lawyer joke and all the rants against shysters before.
Not going to happen.

The 6000 lawyers the Democrat Party had on standby have gone to work. Of course if O'Reilly is this stupid I hope he is convicted.
I have a problem with this women asking to come back to Fox and never mentioning the harassment though.
Also I noticed in the suit she brings the name David S. Ratner and wonder if he is related to Ellen Ratner. She is the great Fox guest that wished the war would go badly for Bush and Fox kept her employed.You cant worship two masters and there is no doubt in my mind Fox is being targeted from the so called "Mainstream Media" and they should have known it. Hope the truth comes out.
The ABA will rule America very soon!
To: BurbankKarl
Ha!
I can't help but notice that the tales of extortion, talk of "evil," and and countersuit itself do nothing to deny that, in fact, any or all of it didn't actually take place.

I think one of the reasons she continued to go out to dinner with him was that she was taping him, building a case for sexual harassment. When she was on Today this morning, she got an awfully smug look on her face when she was asked whether there were tapes of the conversations. Of course, her attorney would not let her answer that question, but he did say they either had tapes or her memory is fantastic.
If there are tapes of this, O'Reilly is through. Fox will have to fire him.
