Seems a bit of venting is needed RE: Todays issue

[applesmom]

Thank you drothergoodnow,Gingers Mom and shais_mom. The truth will set us free!

Thank you Kym for bringing truth to PT.

Does anyone remember when borzoimom first joined - she threatened a bunch of teenagers on PT that the police were at their door and they were going to jail? Yeah.. well they're still all here and I still haven't heard of anyone getting a knock at their door!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

She's not still here, but may still read the posts, as this is a public website! Don't let it worry you, honestly, though.

People, people, people............let it go and move on. By continuing this thread (yes, I know I'm posting on it) you are only giving them "air time". Lets get back to the serious business of enjoying our animals and each others company before PT is closed for good

[JenBKR]

Just had to laugh - ok, being sued for slander. Think all of PT will be called in to testify?

Yeah there was lots of drama when she first came here...we were all going to get police visits for questioning anything she said.

I would not worry Dr. Goodnow. I got threatened with a lawsuit when I had the problem I posted about. It wasn't the breeder though who threatened me but one of her friends. I contacted a lawyer, showed him all the posts, pms, emails, everything. My mother taught me well, she was a paralegal and taught me to always keep everything. I still have it all too. He told me since I never posted anything that was not provable and backed up and was only about my business dealings that there was no case. No lawsuit ever came. It was just a threat. Some people like to throw it around to try and scare people who do not know about the law and the legal system. Since you did not post anything that is false then you have nothing to worry about.

I would be very interested in having you post all those posts, pm's and e-mails on this site so we all could see and know what you talk about. I think it could be a big help in claryfing things.

That might not be a good idea, if it was involved in someone threatening litigation in the first place. But if you had a question, maybe one of our Pet Talk law folks could answer it ... those who have had experience, or even our own Cataholic, though I don;t know what branch of law is her specialty!

[Cataholic]

HAH! I might have missed THIS drama with BZ, but, I **knew** things were goofy with her way back when.

Kicks self for not having brought her laptop home with her last night!!!

[DrKym]

Good Morning all,

I have contacted several lawyers in and around the shenendoah valley area, to clarify if slander is a sueable offense, I ahve been assured that if it had been spoken, it would, however as it wasn't and it was typed the correct venue, would be libel.

Libel would constitute falsities being posted (verifiable falsehoods typed with malice), not opinions, and that any verified fact that directly contradict, a persons position, and view, based on a falsehood. DO NOT constitute either.

Which is too bad as I was hoping to have a court house party, so I could finally meet Orc. I wanted to meet Mario also as he would be my star witness!


Applesmom,
you got an email?? I got my notice of the impending doom via MSN and Ceph!

Thank you all for kind words, and your thoughts on the thread.

Now I need to go take some new pics to post before I get yelled at for no new pics of the kittens and the new foster birds!

Dr. Goodnow - drop in Thursdays and I will buy you a large drink of your choice!

[Cataholic]

DrGN, are you **really** serious that you consulted attorneys about this? LOL, were they laughing at you when you called? Can you really, really take any of this seriously? Can any of you? Man. I wish I had your lives! I worry about bills, about my job, about sickness in my family, **close** friends. I even worry about more grey hair! But, as I read this, and come to understand the claims/happenings, I cannot imagine taking this seriously. It is so super drama'ish, like grade school stuff. " She called me a name, I called so and so, and she said..."come on.

These are the people that are on my super, duper short list as contacts. Who wants the drama? Not when there really ARE things to get worked up over.

If ANY lawyer takes ANY of this stuff seriously, and truly moves forward with litigation, L.O.L. That attorney is fresh outta law school, bored outta their mind, or, insane.

Get your fee up front.

Johanna 20 minutes on the phone was worth it for the chuckles.

The first chuckle being the basis of the suit is wrong, second being the clarification of the terms, and an overview of Virginia Tort law.

Now it wouldn't have been due diligence, as according to all things posted by the ex-mamber EVERYTHING is different in Virginia not to have clafiried would it?

This isn't

There it is...the voice of reason and sanity
