What about Alex Jones, if I may trouble you on this again. This has surely been the most painful of any case I've happened to hear about. The newspaper only says he's shifting all his businesses to his parents, or going bankrupt or whatev. Even though his various incomes are well-known.
TFG is entitled to appeal to the 2nd Circuit as a matter of right. He can ask for reversal (don’t see any grounds for that) or alternatively a new trial, on the grounds that Judge Kaplan incorrectly admitted certain evidence (that seems like a very weak argument to me), or there was some other irregularity.
The 2nd Circuit can decide the appeal based solely on the parties’ briefing, or after oral argument. My guess is that they decide based on the briefing, and the appeal will ultimately be denied, given that trial judges generally have wide latitude on how to conduct trials and are reviewed using an “abuse of discretion” standard.
That is reprehensible. The court should have to pay the settlement, and then the court can work it out with the defendant. Why it would be contingent on me to collect money that belongs to me is inexcusable. The state needs to be the body that takes it away from the loser, and gives it to the winne
Just because the PAB wasn’t found liable for, or guilty of, rape (yet) doesn’t mean he is not a rapist (obviously).PS, Thank you Liz, I’ve been waiting for days to see your analysis. After sifting through all the “horseshit” the past few days, your column is a breath of fresh reasoning.
In the meantime, the court has unsealed a veritable flood of lunatic motions filed by Trump's supporters, in case you wanted to spend your weekend reading a disquisition on rape laws from1880 or a 50-page, handwritten manifesto from someone who claims "First, defendant is my half brother. He suffers from bipolar disorder, as do I."
Oh FFS. I'd rather watch that awful CNN Town Hall.
I hate it when that happens. I am a K-8 sub teacher in the CA region of the US of America. My undergrad is in a language I love--English. I am offended almost hourly with the levels of literacy I find... and not just amongst the students.

Dulce!
I think the best he gets is any sort of appeal and that might take a much greater stretch that any court is willing to go.

Dersh has fallen so far off the rails that Wile E. Coyote landed on him.
Apparently, in NY it does have to be penis and his was so small she couldn’t really tell.
Thank you for that! That clears so much up…
Roberta Kaplan really knows what she is doing, and Tacopenis was shut down several times in court by her

I think "none of the above" is DEFINITELY a valid option here.
He thought he was having sex with Marla.
Lol
Lotsa "shoulds" in the American legal "system".
