Well, we came down to a settlement. My lawyer says that they want a permanent injunction and $2K. But, my lawyers said they are going to make sure it is worded to where I take no responsibility or liability for the issues that have happened to them. Basically that I promise not to do what I have...
Well, I have a new development. The trial date was set for Feb, but we've informally extended the date since we are going to try and negotiate a deal. I have founds myself in a strange spot. They are seeking a "permanent injunction" against me. I am unable to afford the costs for depositions and...
I am currently involved in a civil case. Part of the case deals with SPAM mail being sent to the plaintiff. For some idiotic reason, I am being sued because they "presume" that I sent them spam mail. The plaintiff's lawyer said they have a ISP IP address to trace. I also have been receiving SPAM...
I am aware that my lawyer is not my friend. I know he runs a business and needs to make money too. He is a little slow, but seems to be getting the job done.
It is the plaintiff that wants me to pay them $15K, not my lawyer. My lawyer told them to shove it and said negotiations are off the table.
I had a new development today. My lawyer called and told me they wanted to settle the case. They want me to pay them $15K and a permanent injunction. We are only two months into the case. My lawyer says they do not have a case against me (cannot prove damages), so they want to settle. Is that a...
I like to get as many opinions as possible, to see if there is a fresh prospective on my current case. I have never been involved in any type of legal matters before, so I want to be informed as much as possible. Thanks for your input.
Well, this is just a hypothetical scenario that falls close in line with what I am dealing with. I have not gotten a amount on what I am being sued for, my lawyer said they will come up with a number later. But if it is something in the millions, I can't see where I would be responsible for lost...
This is true, I am not admitting to the first thing entirely. I only purchased the dog, not for the use to interfere with someone else' business. But since I admit partially to that allegation, would that swing a jury over that "great than 50%" margin to find someone guilty of something. I mean...
I have a question regarding "preponderance of evidence". I am currently involved in a civil case, which has many claims or "torts" to it. I am going to make up a scenario to try and lay everything out.
So I am being sued in a civil case. Lets say a person I know owns a prize show dog named...
That's where I'm starting to get into a gray area. My former boss signed an affidavit that said my termination was based on a on going conflict with a co-worker. But, that conflict was based on my co-worker doing something illegal and that can be proven 100%. I guess they just got tired of me...
Yes, but even if they use "At-Will", if you reported something illegal going on within the company only a short time before being terminated, isn't that considered a wrongful termination?
What would qualify as an expert witness? I am currently a defendant in a civil case revolving around IT allegations. Would I be able to use myself as an expert witness? I am not certified in computer forensics. I do however have 12 years experience in the IT field and a degree in computer...
The company suffered a DOS (Denial of Service) attack on they're network which shut down the company for a day. We requested the logs from this attack and all of the logs trace back to another country. But for some reason, they want to tie this attack to me. I think they are trying to draw a...
They did go forward with filing the injunction against me. I have two lawyers working on this case for me. There are a few other things involved not relating to this domain issue, but we agreed to the injunction. My lawyers rewrote the injunction to say "I agree to stop doing what I'm not doing...
I use the term typosquatting, because I cannot find another term for the legal mess I'm dealing with.
After I left a company, I was looking for a job and wanted to work on my IT skills a little bit more. So I registered a domain that was one letter off of the former company I worked for. I only...
