  2. Agreed as to all and, further, why did she let him go on like that? I was certain she was going check him at five different times. And then, she made a point to remind TCC counsel they were short on time? That was was a a double double, “Say what?! Say what?!”
  3. As I said up yonder, this was simultaneously an application for Knighthood, the acceptance speech and an assault on the ramparts of Fort TCC. If that was extemp, I’m Bugs Bunny. (No smart comments, any of you. I did mention that I took a wrong turn at Albuquerque, so I may have it coming.)
  4. Yes, as well as the indication of recess. I swung and kicked at the same time and landed on my tuchus.
  5. How long is the recess? I had to go assault and batter my heavy bag and missed it.
  6. He gets none of them. Jim Stang’s application over road it with flourish, flare and fury.
  7. Yup. Wow, indeed. The recitation of his CV was the setup for his attack from the High Wall while riding the White Horse with the Sword of Justice extended.
  8. I think Mr. KR is making his application for Knighthood, Sainthood, the Congressional Gold Medal and Presidential Medal of Freedom. Good grief. “Ditch the TCC. We got this...”
  9. Amen, brother. It’s right on par with Coalition client recruitment and I think it’s reprehensible. It’s not factual. The ‘sin of omission’ is clearly meant to manipulate thinking/voting toward their conclusion. Manipulating is not informing. There is stating an opinion based on analysis and there is stating half truths to lure one into the ‘trap’. I caught a bunch of rabbits in my handmade traps. “Fresh garden vegetables! Come and get it! See? It’s just a wee box and you can obviously get out because you can clearly get in. Oops. The box closes when you snatch the snack? Oh, that’s right. Guess I failed to mention that...”
  10. In my combining for news, I found this a good piece. It focuses on religious organization COs. https://www.christianitytoday.com/news/2021/september/boy-scouts-church-lawsuit-abuse-bankrupcy-liability.html
  11. I’m sorry, but this is tipping the toe and splashing around in the mystical pool of fabrication, fantasy and manipulation. Seriously? On second thought, they may already be up to their belly button in this magical elixir, ready to wade yet deeper as shortened time and expedience necessitate. Did Reciprocity write this? Inquiring minds...
  12. Someone please file such an idea so I can watch Tanc Schiavoni fly around the room like a whirling dervish. I’d pay to see that. (Pretty much a zero percent chance we will get to see either that sort of exit ramp cash or therefore, sadly, the dervish.)
  13. I’m mostly referring to the Mass Tort Claimant Cottage Industry, as my friend calls it. Comb the papers for the latest action and file away. “Penalties for fraud? Jail time and fines? Pah. They won’t enforce that.” I’m not saying it is the case, but there are 5000 pro se claimants, a couple of us included who are NOT such humans. Also, if you have a decent pool of claimant clients, do the math. $3500 adds up quickly especially if you didn’t do a lot of legwork on the front end. I am NOT saying this is rampant, but cipher it out. $3500 x 1000? 2000? At 40%+...?
  14. Nor done their homework. Archdiocese of Portland, 32 months Diocese of Tucson, 4 months Diocese of Spokane, 28 months Diocese of Davenport, 19 months Diocese of San Diego, 9 months Diocese of Fairbanks, 23 months Oregon Province, Society of Jesus, 29 months Diocese of Wilmington, 21 months Archdiocese of Milwaukee, 58 months Christian Brothers of Ireland, 33 months Diocese of Gallup, 31 months Diocese of Stockton, 36 months Diocese of Helena, 14 months Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, 44 months Diocese of Duluth, 41 months Diocese of New Ulm, 27 months Diocese of Great Falls-Billings, 17 months Crosier Fathers and Brothers, 14 months
  15. 3) My claim is not actually valid or verifiable and I’m going to avoid that exposure and/or hassle; 4) I do this for a living, filing in any and all cases in which I may or may not have a connection or grievance and see what happens. Cha-Ching. $3500 is a dandy pair of ostrich Ferragamos and matching belt.
  16. Oh, joy. Oh, rapture. Wrong state. Wrong church. Wrong turn at Albuquerque and “definitely not wearing my underwear.” (Nod to Raymond, aka, Rainman.)
  17. I assumed that, but he used the plural. What else you got, Sir Volunteer? If the asset assumptions are incorrect, bring on the comparative analyses and let’s get ready to rummmble.
  18. Agreed. This ain’t going in without a fight. Still like to understand precedent and implications if denied. Ja. Du hast einen guten punkt. (A good point.) Anyone know the attendance at the meetings? I’d like to see if there’re an uptick.
  19. Thanks for this. As has been said, they/we must be given this opportunity. I can’t see how the judge excludes an official statement from the Official Tort Claimants Committee representing all victim claimants. It’s also signed by our representatives, not merely their counsel. I don’t know the legal implications, but from a precedent standpoint, has a TCC ever been denied this right in a mass tort bankruptcy? That said, as one of our posters stated several times, he sends a client mailing stating in giant letters, “THIS IS NOT A TAX BILL.” The response? A perennial deluge of calls to see if it is a tax bill. Including the TCC statement and having it read may be two different fishes. I hope both occur and it’s in very simple English. It’s pretty darn good, now but maybe some tweaks. I know. I’m in the peanut gallery. I’ve found that creating added white space helps people transition between thoughts, especially when bullets are used. My point being it needs to be absolutely as accessible as possible. I’m proud of our TCC!!
  20. Please don’t delete my last post. I was submitting nearly simultaneously.
  21. I don’t entirely think so, beloved brother. Those with well-stated open state claims could sail and skate with little involvement. Cases in point, some of our fellow don’t even know who represents them. That’s ghastly and telling. I don’t see that magically changing. Open to be wrong. I’ll just add another hash mark to my poop sheet.
