Happy sleuthing folks!

One simple argument ..

As we come up to the trail date, which will be announced over the next few days .. I wanted to break this case down to it's simplest argument.

Basically this lawsuit boils down to two important documents.

An email sent to Tricia on April 24, 2011 [here] .. stating that Tricia was entitled to draw a salary of up to $3000 per month including expenses already paid for Websleuths LLC.

Then the legal contract for Websleuths LCC signed on May 1, 2011 [here]

If the email sent to Tricia which pre-dates the contract by only 7 days is deemed to be enough for Tricia to believe she was within her rights to withdraw monies from the LLC account, then Tricia wins. If the contract omitting the agreement is deemed to override that email is enough to cancel that arrangement Sue does.

Everything else comes down to intent, and intent may be what ultimately leads the jury to decide between the email and the contract above.

The jury may decide that even though the contract is a weightier document than the email, that the fact that it was drawn up by Sue's husband and they may have deliberately left out the important disclaimer when it came to managerial income. Apart from that there is ample evidence of other mis-doings on the part of Sue Pruitt, so we shall have to be patient and see.

It all depends on what is presented in court and the final decision shall be up to the jury, we shall try to keep you as up to date as possible.

Plaintiff's Response to Defendant's Amended No-Evidence and Traditional Motions for Partial Summary Judgement

Reading through the latest documents a couple of things really stood out to me in this document. Starting here:

Thus it is not a STRETCH for any reasonable mind to determine that the Defendant PREYED on her VICTIMS and then sought and obtained money from these victims / members of the Websleuths.com website. 

Oh no, it is indeed a GIANT LEAP. To go from complaining about money issues and taking money for Ad Free, to saying she used Websleuths as her grooming ground is a HUGE STRETCH. Especially when so many affidavits filed at the same time do nothing but complain that Tricia was largely MIA from the forum, so when prey, did all this grooming take place? 

The Great Clay Davis you say? Well .. Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeit!!

Not So Blind Item: Alien Invasion

It has been reported that some on a quest for justice (who were famously cast out of one queendom and forged forth to create their own) have recently been the victims of alien attack! Coming from the skies and unexpectedly time and time again comes an alien craft carrying this little green lady. It seems her mission is to bring news of unrest in their former land. How this is of any value or interest to them remains a mystery.
