Date: June 12th, 2007 12:10 PM Author: amber wonderful lay this has nothing to do with real life. you're arguing the case on its merits. the defendants will need real lawyers to make those arguments at the summary judgment and/or trial stage, and real lawyers cost real money to get to those stages. those who own homes probably have homeowners insurance and they should contact their insurers ASAP. those who are not homeowners... are screwed.

Date: June 12th, 2007 1:19 PM Author: Disgusting Fragrant Fanboi According to the WSJ article, they are claiming that they couldn't get good summer associate positions because of the attention from this site. Now if that is in the complaint (I haven't read it yet) won't they have to prove causation there which means getting the hiring committees from all those firms on the stand to show that it was a "But For" cause or substantial factor? This is assuming they get past all the other hurdles in this case. Seems like there are a number of defenses that are glaringly obvious that the professors are missing.
I have a feeling this is going to turn out just like the Pentagon recruiting case. Every law professor thinks this has merit, but even the most liberal judges in real world law laugh them out of court.

Date: June 12th, 2007 1:26 PM Author: Anal Coral Resort The complaint doesn't have an "interference with business prospects" or anything like that, so it'll only be about special damages, I think.

|
Date: June 12th, 2007 1:33 PM Author: Disgusting Fragrant Fanboi The complaint seems thin on Anthony's involvement. It just claims he didn't stop any of the threads. Since when does anyone have to step in to stop anything in this country. That's the American way. He had no duty to help these people.

Date: June 12th, 2007 1:49 PM Author: Disgusting Fragrant Fanboi What's wrong with posting their emails? Those are probably regarded as public information, just like their names. Especially if they used their emails to contact him. Unless they have never used their email to contact anyone and worked hard to keep it private then maybe, but still doubtful.

The posting threat was just the insult, but the injury was the refusal. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=644106&forum_id=2#8246831) |

Date: June 12th, 2007 1:30 PM Author: racy primrose rigpig hospital I didn't read these threads at the time, but the comments reproduced in the complaint are seriously disturbing. Frankly, I'm glad they brought this suit. People should be held accountable for their actions and the effects those actions have on others. What goes around comes around. |

|
Date: June 12th, 2007 1:45 PM Author: racy primrose rigpig hospital I'm not saying that the comments are or should be legally actionable. I think the purpose behind this lawsuit is to nail every one of these guys to the wall by publicly exposing their identities in connection with their posts concerning these two women. Forget about employers - do you think any of these guys will date again after this becomes public? They all contributed to making the lives of these women extremely uncomfortable and this seems like perfect retribution. |

Date: June 12th, 2007 1:54 PM Author: racy primrose rigpig hospital No - that doesn't shock me at all, but it's not relevant to this situation.
Do you really think that private locker room talk is the same as google-bombing someone with rape threats and STD allegations? Sure, guys say things all the time. Broadcasting things like this to a person's family, acquaintances and future employers is not just a case of guys being guys. They're getting exactly what they deserve.

Date: June 12th, 2007 2:03 PM Author: Boyish Fat Ankles It's a little relevant, I think. Everyone of the posters, except one, did not intentionally broadcast (or "google-bomb", as you like to call it) anything to the public. Xoxohth can feel like you're in private just having fun with friends, and it's easy to forget that you're actually in public and that what you are saying is being stored.
All I'm saying is that none of the guys said anything that you won't hear from a of regular guys if you spend some time with them, including rape threats and STD allegations. |

Date: June 12th, 2007 9:56 PM Author: Overrated hyperactive sanctuary keepsake machete This is actually a very interesting legal point that has not really been mentioned. It applies to the invasion of privacy torts. Yet another defense (actually, plaintiff has the burden of proof). This one seems very challenging for both sides--I really don't have any hunch what the legal answer is. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=644106&forum_id=2#8248661) |
