@Justin Troudcul this is excessive, he isnt filing cases to correct any actual issues.

@mastakush47 you both realize that everything doesnt have to have pointless politics injected into it, dont you? I dont even support anyone, its just that politics shouldnt be discussed where it shouldnt be.
Because the lawyers are all in on it together and that includes the judges. You have to get really, REALLY corrupt before your partners in crime will call you out. Mainly because it makes it clear to all of us "little" people what a game it all really is and they can't have us realizing that.
Good! This man has caused so much harm to dozens upon dozens of hard working people just trying to keep their small businesses afloat. He manufactures issues and tries to intimidate & railroad innocent people. This has been going on with him for years.
There was a woman in the SF Bay Area who was suing everyone in the neighborhood over and over. Finally a judge ruled that she can't sue anymore just like in this instance. She has to get permission from the court. One neighbor said he saw her one time outside of her house across the street as he approached his car. Somehow she managed to sneak behind his car and claimed that he hit her with the car while he was backing up on his driveway.
@Darin Preston We have the slander and libel laws but because of the American Rule on costs they usually dont have to pay their opponent's costs when they lose in court. This makes it very costly to sue and they mostly go unchallenged in court.
Once again a liberal who didn't catch the fact he didn't say anything about the case, he just said "I do not give interviews to fake news". Details. You missed them.
Oddly, it isn't usually criminal. Lawyers can get a slap on the wrist from an ethics board. That's about it. You'd think it would be illegal, but guess who makes the laws?
Vexatious Litigator! 😂😂 I never heard of that before. It sounds like this is the way he has chosen to make a living just filing hundreds of frivioulous lawsuits hoping to eventually hit pay dirt. 😆
Big companies do this also, several states created legislation to stop Walmart from doing it. They sue people for stealing knowing they will just give them the money to get them to go away instead of fighting it in court. This guy is probable hoping for the same thing.
This is why so many people view attorneys in such a negative light. Meanwhile, there are so many great ones working very hard fighting for justice for those that desperately need help.
So basaically what hewill do is either go through another corrupt attorney or he will move on to other states!! He needs to be criminally investigated and prosecuted!!
A guy in a wheelchair came into our bar with a tape measure and threatened to sue because the toilet was 1/2" to close to the wall... I was a little speechless but while I was explaining that we got a variance from the building inspector he said he would drop his lawsuit for $5,000 I got so upset I started yelling every curse word i know at him... he couldn't have got out of there fast enough and we never heard from him again Scammers be scammers in every shape and form
We had a similar problem here in CA: there were lawyers going around to various businesses looking for code violations or less than honest business practices, they would then sue the business for said code violations or practices, then ‘settle out of court’ for monetary damage, despite the fact that the lawyer had not suffered any “injury”. Essentially extortion using the predatory lawsuits as the hammer. Thankfully, the CA Assembly put an end to this by requiring a lawyer to have suffered an actual ‘injury’, and by prohibiting lawyers from filing a lawsuit on their own behalf.
Yup... back around 2005-2007 I had an upstairs business in Redwood City I had to close because I didnt know any better. There was no elevator at the office space I was renting and I was confronted by an attorney. He expected me to pay him to avoid his filing, and because I was a doctor he thought he was going to get a major payout. I shut it down and had the office emptied over the weekend. Then I let the City council & BBB know they just lost a non profit clinic treating the poor because of this guy.
Finally - this seems to be a trend. Shouldn't they disbar all shotgun lawyers in all states and prevent them from filing any suits anywhere? Furthermore they should be paying 3 times in damages to any company they've harrassed.
So, what happens if he does attempt to file a lawsuit without permission from a judge? Does some clerk somewhere need to compare his name with a database, and simply reject it? I hope that's not all there is to it - he'd still be wasting the clerk's time. I hope that such an attempt would earn him jail time.
The simple solution is to change our civil tort system to that which virtually every industrial nation uses. Loser pays litigation. So every time you lose a case you pay the opposing persons costs. It gets rid of frivolous cases fast but valid cases still are pursued.
His strategy was to panic business owners into settling, rather than going to court. Because the case was never in court, the laws that would require him to pay expenses of the person he sued would not go into effect. Never get in a pissing contest with a skunk. Instead, get a bigger skunk.
The same thing should happen to Devin Nunes for all of the frivolous lawsuits he has filed. Currently he is suing a cartoon cow on twitter for saying mean things about him!
Not knowing ALL the facts regarding this individual, I am concerned this ruling will signal accessibility for the disabled is no longer an issue. Businesses, like the rest of us, that conform to the "handicap" laws have nothing to fear.
This should happen to Trump at all levels of the U.S courts system. Label him as a vexatious litigant so every time he so much as wants to fart in court he needs to ask permission.
If the law is being broken. Then it's illegal.and should be dealt with legally no matter how small the infrastruction .clean your own back yard before you tackle someone else's
Let him be banned for any lawsuit universally throughout the entire country in every jurisdiction, no matter how small (even a coral atoll as an American possession). Better yet, by every country in the entire world.
This guy is probably best buds with my former landlord who uses his rental properties to file insurance fraud and lawsuits against the low income renters he preys on.
I hope every single person he sued joins a class action that will get them back every penny he extorted from them. That or every one of them sue him for court costs plus anything they paid to him.
Seems like a pretty clear case of fraud, racketeering and extortion. Why has he not been charged? If it can be shown that he has worked with anybody in these criminal enterprises then it can become a RICO case.
"Stopping frivolous lawsuits" used to be a Republican mantra until Trump came along, and given that he had personally filed over 4000 mostly frivolous lawsuits and threatened to file thousands more, Republicans don't talk about this anymore.
now every defendant in his frivolous lawsuits should join forces and hire a couple of attorneys to pursue him in court for every false and frivolous suit he has ever filed. Obtain judgments against him and go after every dime he has or will receive as a result of his abuse of process.
City near my home a few years ago there was a " disabled man " and a lawyer going around scoping out businesses, mostly restaurants, citing their " violations" and then informing the business owner that for a few thousand dollars they would go away. Legal shake down in my opinion and no better than prison inmates suing because they don't get Lime Jello.
Under Most British based Law Systems (Canada for Instance.) , if the case is lost the Loser is Responsible for Costs. This tends to make most litigation simpler as those knowingly in the wrong just settle. Serial Litigators don't even bother because any lost case will cost them money.
He ruined hundreds of lives with his frivolity cases. Throw him in prison.
Why is prison the first stop for people? It's like the landfill bin of society, but more rapey. Why not make him donate his fortune and work at Wendy's and deliver food or something as part of a "working class" simulator.

IF I WAS HIS NEIGHBOR,,,,HE WOULD DISAPPEAR
Let him be banned for any lawsuit universally throughout the entire country in every jurisdiction, no matter how small (even a coral atoll as an American possession). Better yet, by every country in the entire world.
The term scumbag comes to mind.
Oh I forgot, he's an attorney.
This guy is probably best buds with my former landlord who uses his rental properties to file insurance fraud and lawsuits against the low income renters he preys on.
Judge needs to jail him for contempt and make him spend a few days in a cell with Bubba.
That can and does happen in Canada and the UK.
I hope every single person he sued joins a class action that will get them back every penny he extorted from them. That or every one of them sue him for court costs plus anything they paid to him.
Seems like a pretty clear case of fraud, racketeering and extortion. Why has he not been charged? If it can be shown that he has worked with anybody in these criminal enterprises then it can become a RICO case.
I'm a big fan of RICO- been studying it as a hobby for 35 yrs+. Big hurdle would be proving fraud. Agree?
That’s what is called in Australia a ‘Vexatious Litigant’. It’s rare for such a ruling. It takes a lot for the courts to say.. Enough!
I've had my own experience with a serial litigator who keeps tabs on his prey even after they've settled disputes with him outside of court.
YOU are next Giuliani!
It took me a minute and a half to realise i wasn't watching "The Onion". I still have a hard time getting my head around it.
Karen who!?? This dude after the crown!! 😅🤦🏾♂️
"Stopping frivolous lawsuits" used to be a Republican mantra until Trump came along, and given that he had personally filed over 4000 mostly frivolous lawsuits and threatened to file thousands more, Republicans don't talk about this anymore.
We sure treat our loonies gently! Let him sue! It’s who we are as a nation.
The second he said 'fake news' it all made sense
As a person with hearing and visual disabilities I am disgusted by this person.
In my days they called attorneys like this, Ambulance Chasers.
Justice!
What will he do now? Ringling Bros. Is out of business.
A punch in the face for every new lawsuit..
now every defendant in his frivolous lawsuits should join forces and hire a couple of attorneys to pursue him in court for every false and frivolous suit he has ever filed. Obtain judgments against him and go after every dime he has or will receive as a result of his abuse of process.
Shame on him. He should have to give back any, and all money he took from his shady law suits. All lawyers like him need to be disbarred.
Not surprised to hear this dude use the phrase ‘fake news ‘.
If he's not careful he's going to give lawyers a bad reputation.
City near my home a few years ago there was a " disabled man " and a lawyer going around scoping out businesses, mostly restaurants, citing their " violations" and then informing the business owner that for a few thousand dollars they would go away. Legal shake down in my opinion and no better than prison inmates suing because they don't get Lime Jello.
Under Most British based Law Systems (Canada for Instance.) , if the case is lost the Loser is Responsible for Costs.
This tends to make most litigation simpler as those knowingly in the wrong just settle.
Serial Litigators don't even bother because any lost case will cost them money.
WRONG. In most USA jurisdictions, the prevailing party is entitled to counterclaim against the losing party for damages, costs and fees.
