So much for the frivolous lawsuits. I still believe in the 7th amendment...0 -
A lot of lawsuits are injurious falsehoods [a tort akin to defamation] with insufficient cause and are meritless nothing short of extortion and/or constructive fraud. 0 -
They should go after him, now. He was a lawyer trying to bully and intimidate people by threatening a lawsuit if they didn't meet his ridiculous demands ("Don't you realize I'm a lawyer and I will sue you?". But maybe he's already screwed enough. I hear he has lost his job as an administrative judge over the bad publicity this case caused. He's a loser all around.
He should get a job at McDonald's. He's an embarrassment to the legal profession (and THAT'S saying something).0 -
Oh, I don't know Saxon, Mateo is an embarassment and he is one of the best.[}:)] 0 -
There is a well known court case named Yost v Torak.
Mr Torak was wealthy and had a bone to pick with Mr Yost. He continually filed false and frivilous suits against Mr Yost, who couldn't afford all the legal expenses. He finally filed a suit against Mr Torak for the cost of defending all these frivilous lawsuits. The court ruled that Mr Torak had to pay up. This important decision has saved many a defendant, including me. In my 39 years of handling insurance arson, fraud and theft fraud claims, many perps included my name personally in their suit against the insurance company. All it usually took was a call to the plaintiff lawyer asking him if he wanted his client "Yosted." The suit against me was usually dismissed. I had to Yost one stubborn dude. Cost him $2500 to pay my lawyer.0 -
...Looks like the so called "judge" may have problems holding on to the bench, as his "boss" has withdrawn his previous endorsement; and recommended he not retain his position...[^]

Where do you get your stats? "A lot of" my ass. Your buying into insurance company bull again.
See what happens when you file a frivolous lawsuit? Reread the first post. That's the way it is supposed to work "A lot of the time." That's why I have observed that "frivolous lawsuits" are few and far between, and are a form of urban myth.
That's why jury trials and the 7th amendment are important. Way to go jury!0 -

More frivolous lawsuits anyone?0 -
I'd still sue that a-hole for filing a frivolous lawsuit, defamation of character, unethical conduct, abuse of power and intentional infliction of emotional distress. I might also throw in promoting ant-Asian sentiment for good measure. [:(!] 0 -
The question will be how much should he pay for the legal fees?
The answer is simple. He was asking for $500,000 in legal fees to represent himself. That seems like a reasonable way to set the legal fees he should pay.0 -
