Please take notice that Appellants Roy Moore and Kayla Moore have advised that they will be arguing on their own behalf pro se at the upcoming oral argument of June 10, 2022.
O RLY?A lawyer for Roy Moore tried to persuade some skeptical federal appeals judges Friday to revive a $95 million defamation lawsuit that the former Alabama candidate for U.S. Senate brought against comedian Sacha Baron Cohen.
Attorney Larry Klayman complained during arguments before a panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan that Moore wasn’t treated fairly when a judge tossed his lawsuit last July. He even compared his client to actor Johnny Depp, saying Moore also deserves to have a jury determine the validity of his claims.

Before the 2nd Circuit, Klayman urged a reinstatement of the 2019 lawsuit to allow him to gather evidence to prove that the former chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court was defamed and subject to emotional distress and fraud because he was tricked into an interview with Cohen.
“There’s nothing more heinous than being accused of being a pedophile,” Klayman said. “People jump off buildings over that.”
Inevitable motion to recuse to follow.Circuit Judge Gerald E. Lynch noted that Moore had signed a release provision for the show, before he knew Cohen was involved, disclaiming reliance on “any representation made about who these people are and what they’re up to.”
And he added that the ability of Moore to bring claims of fraud, defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress were “categorically released” by papers Moore signed before going on the show.
On many arguments Klayman made, he was challenged by Lynch or Circuit Judge Rosemary S. Pooler.
At one point, Klayman expressed disappointment with the lower court judge, and Lynch quickly jumped to the judge’s defense.
“Don’t tell me that Judge Cronan went back on something he promised you,” Lynch said, explaining that Cronan told Klayman he had a valid argument but ultimately decided that the law favored Cohen.
Still, Klayman pleaded for a reinstatement of the lawsuit, saying: “You have to give it to a jury. It’s not for a judge to decide.”
“This was not handled fairly. It was not handled the right way,” Klayman added. “And my client deserves his day in court.”
As best as I can tell, he ended up back in the saddle because they had not done the proper paperwork for a pro se party (he was still the attorney of record). He also seemed unable to file things correctly and so there are a bunch of defective document entries.bob wrote: ↑Tue Jun 14, 2022 4:37 pmnorthland10 wrote: ↑Tue May 31, 2022 9:34 pm In the 2nd circuit appeal of Roy Moore and Showtime/Sacha Cohen, GIL filed:I was wondering when he would be out of that case as well.

Attorney Larry Klayman
GIL is broke and can't travel to NY (well, I can most definitely agree with him currently being seriously in debt though I bet he still travels elsewhere), and Moore is now destitute.Second, Appellants have severely harmed and financially drained as a result of the heinous misconduct of the Appellees, falsely branding Judge Moore as a pedophile on television. Counsel for Appellants also do not have the resources to travel to New York for oral argument in person, and they have been informed by the Appellants that the Appellants are also financially in a poor condition. Thus, based on the foregoing, Appellants, based on the sudden rise of Covid yet again, and the cost of travel to New York with attendant hotel costs, respectfully request that their counsel be granted leave to appear at the June 10, 2022 oral argument via Zoom or other remote appearance software.

That two mil ain't gonna collect itself.
Naa, Godzilla (when he was only a Tyranosourus) attacked US Soldiers in WW2 and was shelled by US warships, and was then dropped into radioactivce goo and became big Godzilla. So the Monsters lost WW2. Or at least thats the *cough* official version.
Nice to see he's come back to his roots as a lawyer specializing in international trade.GIL wrote:Importantly, this Petition involves issues of monumental importance not only to Mr. Klayman, but to U.S. and international trade and commerce as a whole, which underscores why it is so imperative that the Court step in and take action, since this case impacts not only Mr. Klayman personally, but advertising, trade, commerce and industry as we know it in the 21st century, where everything is digital, and advertisements are often broadcasted nationally, if not worldwide. This is why it is so important that there be a uniform test among all of the circuits for claims brought under the Lanham Act.
Here is the petition for Bob (and maybe others)GIL concluding whine wrote:The Court must respectfully step in and correct these errors to prevent not only manifest injustice to Mr. Klayman with regard to a $2.8 million judgment which will bankrupt him and his family, but also to avoid setting and allowing to stand conflicting harmful and disastrous legal precedent which will govern, if left unaddressed and corrected, U.S. and international trade and commerce as a whole.
Yes, he wrote out four and added (5).To this end, Defendants have brought four (5) meritless investigations and complaints against Mr. Klayman...
I would have included 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 based on a bunch of his cases.A lawyer shall not bring or defend a proceeding, or assert or controvert an issue therein, unless there is a basis in law and fact for doing so that is not frivolous, which includes a good-faith argument for an extension, modification, or reversal of existing law.
This sort of argument was in his original petition as well. And it needed to be. Of course, it won't be any more convincing on rehearing than it was the first time.northland10 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 11:45 pm I did not read the original petition (at least not enough so I could remember) or most of the stuff between the paragraph above and the conclusion (in short everything) but I suspect the international trade is just his attempt to squeeze into the rules for a rehearing petition.
Rule 44 covers petitions for rehearing. It's too long to quote, but it doesn't impose any additional restrictions on the arguments to be made in a petition for rehearing. It just boils down to 'There are very strict time requirements, and it's expletive-deletin' unlikely to be granted.'Review on a writ of certiorari is not a matter of right, but of judicial discretion. A petition for a writ of certiorari will be granted only for compelling reasons. The following, although neither controlling nor fully measuring the Court’s discretion, indicate the character of the reasons the Court considers:
(a) a United States court of appeals has entered a decision in conflict with the decision of another United States court of appeals on the same important matter; has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with a decision by a state court of last resort; or has so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings, or sanctioned such a departure by a lower court, as to call for an exercise of this Court’s supervisory power;
(b) a state court of last resort has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with the decision of another state court of last resort or of a United States court of appeals;
(c) a state court or a United States court of appeals has decided an important question of federal law that has not been, but should be, settled by this Court, or has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with relevant decisions of this Court.
A petition for a writ of certiorari is rarely granted when the asserted error consists of erroneous factual findings or the misapplication of a properly stated rule of law.
Klayman played college golf (he may have attended college on a golf scholarship?), and, per the complaint (filed in state court), also purchased spectator tickets to some PGA tourneys.Commissioners of PGA Tour and DP World Tour, Jay Monahan and Keith Pelley, Also Sued Over Their Alleged Conspiracy
Today, Larry Klayman, Esq., the founder of both Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, a former U.S. Senate candidate in Florida, and a member of the trial team in the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice which broke up the AT&T monopoly during the Reagan administration, along with co-counsel Stephen L. Sulzer who will appear pro hac vice, filed a class action antitrust lawsuit under Florida law for monopolization, market division, refusal to deal (aka group boycott) and civil conspiracy against the PGA Tour and its partner DP World Tour, and their respective heads Jay Monahan and Keith Pelley. Klayman filed the action to halt the defendants' efforts to restrain trade and commerce, by trying to kill the new LIV Golf Tour.
Klayman had this say to upon the filing of the suit, which is before the 15th Judicial Circuit for Palm Beach County, in a case styled Klayman v. PGA Tour et. al (Civil Action Filing No. 152278):Klayman wrote:Using the phony pretext of Saudi financing of the LIV Golf Tour (as the PGA Tour and DP World Tour also significantly benefit from a huge amount of Saudi and Arab/Muslim money) these defendants have flagrantly sought, through their anti-competitive actions, to harm Florida consumers who would attend PGA Tour and its admitted partner DP World Tour golfing tournaments and events, by suspending and fining professional golfers who were formerly on these golf tours, simply because they signed up to play in LIV Golf Tour tournaments and events.
The LIV Golf Tour, which was organized and is led by champion golf legend Greg Norman, is paying large competitive contract fees to big name professional golfers such Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau, Patrick Reed, Lee Westwood, Louis Oosthuizen, Kevin Na, and Talor Gooch, and a host of other prominent players. It is seeking to establish itself as a potentially significant competitor to the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, which these entities apparently will not tolerate. Using their superior market power, as set forth in the class action complaint, the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, under the 'leadership' of Jay Monahan and Keith Pelley respectively, have set out to kill the LIV Golf Tour.
This anti-competitive and bullying behavior cannot be tolerated in a free-market capitalist economy, or in general, particularly since consumers of the great game of professional tournament golf will be among the big losers if the LIV Golf Tour is destroyed in its infancy. The preservation of the LIV Tour is therefore in the public's interest!

I was told the story that an NFL attorney had presented a $5 bill to a USFL attorney. According to Wikipedia, this is false; there was actually a check for $3.76 (the seventy-six cents was interest).
