Colin v. Cuthbert is the food lawsuit that stole my heart. It might have been the first Food Court topic. This Trademark Case is filled with cheeky replies from Aldi's social media campaign that is delightful.

Enjoy this blast from the past that you didn't know you needed.

This 2024 Halloween Food Court Live Stream is one of my favorite live streams of the year! I've covered a lot of criminal cases this year so going over food litigations that are less heavy is welcomed.

We also have a long discussion over Dunkin Donuts' hilarious marketing strategies and you'll never guess the brand accounts that partake in the shenanigans.

In 2022, I had the pleasure of bringing you a conversation with Jay Edelson from Edelson PC - YES, the firm that has sued Erika Girardi and helped bring the Girardi Fraud crumbling down.

I was stunned to learn how the California Bar responded to Edelson PC when the fraud was brought to their attention. I had to ask Jay his thoughts on Judge Durkin's Order and whether Diana Jenkins really did pay the orphans and widows of the Lion Air crash disaster?

Blake Lively filed a complaint against Justin Baldoni, his studio Wayfarer, and others, alleging sexual harassment and retaliation. The Complaint was filed with the California Civil Rights Department, which is a necessary step before a lawsuit can be filed in the superior court.

Blake Lively alleges that Baldoni and his associates hired a crisis PR team to embark on a reputationally damaging social media campaign to protect Bladoni’s reputation from allegations of harassment on set during the filming of ‘It Ends With Us.’

Through his legal team, Baldoni gave a statement to the New York Times stating, “[t]hese claims are completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media.” 

Is this about reputation, is it about retaliation, or is there more to come?

During the Alex Murdaugh Murder Trial, Juror No. 787 AKA Egg Lady Juror, was dismissed prior to Closing Arguments. It turned out that she had been talking to people about the case that weren't jurors. That is not allowed.

She wrote a book about how she was wrongfully kicked off of the trial called Enough is Enough. She is requesting to unseal the record so that she can prove to the media and bloggers what happened to her was unfair. The Supreme Court of South Carolina denied the motion because when she agreed to see the sealed proceedings, she also agreed to not disseminate it.

Her attorney fired back that Courthouse Clerk Becky Hill talked about the in camera hearing in her book, Behind the Doors of Justice. I know what I'll be reading during the holiday break!

Diddy is denied Motion Seeking Discovery and Evidentiary Hearing related to alleged case leak information by the government. Diddy is allowed to have access to a laptop that doesn’t have access to the internet so that he can review discovery information regarding his case from his lawyers.

Alec Murdaugh filed his full appeal to the South Carolina Supreme Court as they have agreed to take up his case. This can change the standing law of the state that can overturn the verdict. The main grounds for appeal is that an elected official, Clerk of Court, Becky Hill, tampered with the jury. Becky Hill’s 76 Ethics Complaints are on hold while the criminal investigation is in progress.

Jay-Z & Diddy's accuser did an interview with NBC. They admitted to there being inconsistencies in their allegations. Jay-Z's attorney, Alex Spiro, filed that interview to the record in hopes to get the file dismissed. Diddy also has given up the fight to get bail as he sets his sights on other pressing matters.

TikTok asks the Supreme Court to take up the ruling and filed an injunction while they review the case. 

Tom Sandoval is representing himself in the Rachel lawsuit. Hopefully he is doing this because they are in mediation for settlement.

Tom Girardi's Prosecutor has recommended 14 years of prison.

Karen Read is back in court for a Daubert Hearing. Dr. Russell is the Defense Expert Witness and is being questioned by both the Defense and the Prosecution to see if the testimony should come into the Re-Trial. Dr. Russell explained why she thinks the marks on John O'Keefe are specifically from a dog attack which is different than what she said on the stand in the first trial when she said it might be from a dog bite. The Prosecution was not done questioning Dr. Russell but it was time for court to end. It is scheduled to resume on Jan 7th, 2025, at 9am ET.

A Daubert Hearing is used to challenge an expert witness. The Judge acts as the gatekeeper of the evidence when determining if there is sufficient reliability for admissibility under FRE 702. The court can examine the methodology and reasoning behind the expert's opinion.

Jay-Z has been identified as Celebrity A, who participated with Diddy in sexually assaulting a 13 year old Jane Doe back in 2000. Jay-Z's attorney requested the court have the plaintiff refile the case without anonymity. Jay-Z also filed a lawsuit against The Buzzbee Firm as a John Doe, claiming he is being extorted.

Buzzbee explained on social media that requesting to mediate a lawsuit is not extortion. Tony Buzzbee was Denied a Restraining Order against the Quinn Emanuel Firm. The firms are accusing each other of legal gamesmanship, filing lawsuits in bad faith and malpractice. We have seen Diddy's lawyers attack other plaintiff's attorney's before.

Tony Buzzbee went to social media to claim that one of his clients recorded a call they had with an investigator offering to pay them to sue Buzzbee.

Do you want me to continue to follow this mud slinging saga between the attorneys?
