Here is my theory. The attorney charged the client for her time to write those 56 pages while knowing that the law suite was deeply flawed and her client was not going to win. She took advantage of an angry client which, I think, is unethical.
Perhaps the opposing attorney felt threatened by this complaintant, her client so typed it up while he was sitting her in her office with his new shotgun and wrote it up cause she new it would get thrown out before it was started and just wanted to get this guy out of her hair before he went postal.
No, what happened is she filed this case but hoped that by screwing up the summons and statute of limitations, it would be thrown out and nobody would pay attention to the fact that she sucked up a client's money knowing full well that any service provided would be fraudulent.
Mortimer Latin Jones 😝😝😝👏👏👏 back in our day, we called them a ‘crackerjack’ attorney as a negative. Most of us consider that a GOOD thing. Meaning, they’re good at what they do. Not me. So now I ask...what’s your understanding of what that means...being an ‘old fart’ now I get cringeworthy answers more often than not and lmao, then I teach them and back it up with google!! 🤔 MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
If the info is correct, she has been a lawyer for over a dozen years, so not inexperienced in terms of time. She had her license suspended three years ago, and thus can't claim lack of notice that her actions are wrong.
At 50+ years of age, you're inspiring me to finally go to law school! I've taken the LSAT previously and got a 158, I guess I could go around again.... :)
@@chrisbudesa The requirement varies by school. I'm sure that Harvard wants near perfect scores as opposed to much lower tier schools. Nope, haven't applied yet.
I actually followed this VLOG thread since I thought it was a joke. I concluded there was no way an atty would subject themselves to the penalties associated with filing this case. I was wrong. Looking forward to episode 4.
This is great entertainment. Thanks for sharing. I am one who would not be characterized as interested in law, but you do have an engaging way of delivering a story.
From one of her online reviews: " When I went to another attorney interview with the same set of facts they told me that based on certain aspects of the case it was impossible for me to win since certain time frames had expired." Someone is calendar-challenged.
That was probably a fake review triggered by the videos here. But it's still not as obviously fake as the positive review. And I don't know what to make of the endorsement by an attorney who seems to have no professional existence.
Steve it sounds like the other attorney is watching your videos and learning how to practice law that's why she's wanting to jump ship thanks for sharing the videos very entertaining and very educational.
I found this referencing this attorney's law school on Wikipedia: Judge Quist noted that "it would be unreasonable for Plaintiffs to rely on two bare-bones statistics in deciding to attend a bottom-tier law school with the lowest admission standards in the country." I think this describes the attorney's they push out. I just remembered a piece from an old sitcom that Michael J. Fox was in. His sister was rather dim, but got into a college. One of the major selling points of the school was a free pancake breakfast.
You can counter sue someone for expenses, generally though that happens when you get sued and because you believe the law suit against you is frivolous. There is a kind of humor in a lawyer being angry that there getting sued, that feeling is pretty much what every person Steve ever sued felt , even if they were in the wrong.
When will we have the episode where we can speculate as to how this attorney passed her law classes since the use of her brain doesn’t appear to be a significant factor?
I was wondering the same thing. How do people like this make it out of an accredited law school?? It strikes me what's lacking is not so much a brain (though, as Lehto pointed out, some of the language she used is stupid), but ethics. You can tell from her behavior that she knew when she filed this it was junk. She must've assumed he'd settle, rather than go to trial. He talked about it in a previous episode, that he's somebody who doesn't pay on frivolous claims. However, lots of people do, for whatever reason. It opens them up to junk like this, though, because they gain a reputation as someone who will settle at the drop of a hat. If you have money, that behavior makes you an easy target.
@@mmille10 I doubt she is actually licensed. If she is, she is wholly incompetent and unethical. If the goal was to settle, it would have been smarter to contact the defendants and try to work something out with demand letters. No, I presume the attorney and the plaintiff are literally psychologically impaired and should be held fully accountable for their misdeeds and antics.
Maybe. It could be something else is at play, but unlikely. I wonder if she was somehow coerced into filing this. Steve, can a case be thrown out if the representing attorney was coerced into filing this? Or not in a "right " state of mind (due, perhaps, to side affects of some prescription meds).
This lolsuit seems so moronic that I'm compelled to entertain the thought that the attorney probably doesn't know her credentials were being used to file a case. I really can't think of any other scenario here 😵
I can hear the penny drop.... the lawyer shout abort! abort!! ABORT!!!! and after that realizing she is PHORKED! I love it! Can't wait for part four... and the next series ;)
I like to listen to you. As you are a lawyer I am pleased to listen to your case reports. You are a good lawyer and a breath of good talent. I will say this much, i was so inpressed with a judge who was a "lawyer. He had surch a great real personallity and common sense intelligence. Judge in Mobile, Alabama I enjoy watching you You leave a good impression Thank you
Once again another rational and understandable summation of the situation. Enjoying this, can't wait to hear what becomes of the complainants and their lawyer.
I am enjoying this real-life storyline very much. I stocked up for it pretty well with popcorn, but I am running out of beer. Must make a run to the store before the next episode. Hoping for a second season with new characters.
If she can withdraw without some type of sanctions can't she just re-enter later her suit. Basically can you appeal a dismissal no matter what in some fashion? You're great btw, Steve. I enjoy listening to you and your stories, rationales and observations of others. Keep it up. You're a valued member of our society and that include more than just Michigan. Thanks Steve.
I think the one who is going to get cluster fucked is droopy lawyer lady who scammed her client, gets sued by her client and gets disbarred due to complaints by Lehto (among others) and most likely will have to pay up too...
Hey, I like these Sovereign Citizen morons ... I like the way they stick to their script right up until the taser gets them ... funniest video's on RUclips!
I'm following this fascinating series, Steve, and you're right, "It's getting crazier!". I hope the plaintiff's attorney is not able to abandon ship, and gets stuck on this Titanic as it comes to it's inevitable conclusion.
I'm excited to hear the ending of this story. Most interested to see how that complaint goes against that attorney since she obviously attempted to abuse the court, and didn't fact check her clients frivolous case.
I'm not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, but it seems that this woman's case is going to be self-limiting once the judge reads it, as the judge should get a raucous laughter spell from it, and dismiss it, thereby making it moot, as you said. In addition, I suspect the judge will immediately KNOW that the woman's client won't get another attorney and the reasons why as well! What a mess! But SHE created all this by taking it in the first place.
Sounds like it's time for the plaintiff's counsel to "eat crow while it is young and tender", admit the mistakes she has made, pay the legal and lawyer fees, and hope for the best.
Interestingly she's already received a court punishment of a 30 day suspended license back in 2016. Seems like a lawyer that just scoops up anything she can to suck retainers out of plaintiffs.
I love your analogy of the sinking ship.. in this story she thinks she's the rat but in fact she's the captain and the captain goes down with the ship.
And even in this day and age, the modern US Navy STILL installs "rat guards" on every mooring line just after tying up to the pier. In fact, that's usually done before anyone leaves on liberty! They keep rats from climbing the lines as well as keeping sailors on restriction(to the ship) from sliding down to the pier. Yes...I've seen the later!lol!
You know, as a complete lay person, it almost sounds like she was purposely sabatoging the case at multiple points hoping that either it would get dismissed or budy would get bored so that she wouldn't have to see it through but could still charge him for time.
Dido - White Flag (the lawsuit) Read the lyrics, laugh at the vague converse similarity to this lawsuit. What a poor confused soul plaintiff's counsel is. 🤦♂️
If a new attorney did take it over, would they have any personal liability for the prior mistakes? I mean... I'm envisioning a situation where this attorney passes away or something, and a new one comes in, looks it over, and (presumably) immediately moves to dismiss it as unfounded. It's an aspect of legal ethics with which I'm not familiar: is an attorney ethically obligated to examine a case-in-progress before taking it over, or is one just obligated to behave ethically once they "own" it?
Steve, I received a summons with the name whited out and my name written over it. This has already been resolved but I want to hear your thoughts about it. What do you think? I gave the original to my lawyer but he lost it. Luckily, I scanned a copy of it that clearly showed the whiteout. My new lawyer resolved this for me.
This is nothing compared to what I have been going through on my moms guardianship and estate. It is so crazy when my sister took a large amount of money out from under the judge when court had control of moms guardianship and kidnapped our mom and took her to another country. The judge put a warrant out for her arrest for grand theft and kidnapping on her. This is the crazy part is my sister hired a former judge to be her lawyer. This lawyer was so crazy during one of the hearings she walked up to the beach and told off the judge and he finds her $250 for contempt and then filed a petition to get her money back. This lawyer filed a petition 4 different times on ransom demands to the court which set off the judge big time. The last time the lawyer filed the petition and went to the court my mom was already dead and didn’t tell the judge she had died. And there were many crazy things that went on. Steve mine is worse and still going on over 6 years later!
She thoroughly investigated before filing. What did that encompass? The client is breathing and can pay my retainer, enough investigation for her. What’s with the judge reissuing the subpoenas? Wouldn’t the lawsuit need to be refilled? Noticed no OED in background. Sort of dates when you made this Crazy Town.
Steve, in reading the case docket timeline, it looks like it was filed by one attorney, then later substituted by another attorney, and several motions were entered into the timeline. After your final video, can you describe the timeline in a separate video with explanations for the line items. It would be interesting for us "lay people" to see how a civil court process works. Thanks. Jeremy
I'm not in Michigan, I'm not even in the USA, I'm not a lawyer, but somehow I stumbled onto the first episode of Crazy town, and I've been hooked ever since! lol! I think I now know more about Michigan law than the plaintiff and his legal team! (And no, I don't want the case!)
It's a cross between 'sad' and the suspense of 'anticipation' turning into anxiety because I'm affraid I won't find my Clown-Shoes, raindow-wig, and big red nose, before episode #4.... sigh 😢
@@tomgraves6463 another cosplay afficionado, hey? I wish I could find my happyface deeliebobbers, I find I get a better giggle out of those than the red nose.. XD
Not sad really, more excited. Given that there's only 1 more episode, I predict: The case was dismissed Nov 13, the other lawyer got a public scolding from the judge, and Steve filed the official dismissal order as evidence along with the 56-page complaint to the Bar. Episode 4 won't tell us the results of that because that's probably too soon for a decision to be made by the Bar. But hey, IANAL, and maybe the Bar really can censure her that fast.
I think Steve was never supposed to get the summons. That lady took crazy guys money and then realised she did not want to be his attorney.
Or she realized it was a frivolous case
Here is my theory. The attorney charged the client for her time to write those 56 pages while knowing that the law suite was deeply flawed and her client was not going to win. She took advantage of an angry client which, I think, is unethical.
Perhaps the opposing attorney felt threatened by this complaintant, her client so typed it up while he was sitting her in her office with his new shotgun and wrote it up cause she new it would get thrown out before it was started and just wanted to get this guy out of her hair before he went postal.
@@ericfine325 that's funny but some how I doubt that
@@ericfine325 What did the English language ever do to you that would cause you to butcher it so badly?
Were you even paying attention to the rest of the videos? She can lose her law license for that trash
No, what happened is she filed this case but hoped that by screwing up the summons and statute of limitations, it would be thrown out and nobody would pay attention to the fact that she sucked up a client's money knowing full well that any service provided would be fraudulent.

By Steve's own admission, he has to let her off the hook, because, after all, attornies sue people, do they not?

@@orlenbrown4293 Yup, this is gonna be an expensive one.
Probably would have to sue her back.
Orlen Brown she may already be broke, hence taking such a silly risk.
Hopefully both the attorney and their client get sued to a bitter end so that they forget this stupid stuff.
I'm not in Michigan, I'm not even in the USA, I'm not a lawyer, but somehow I stumbled onto the first episode of Crazy town, and I've been hooked ever since! lol!
I think I now know more about Michigan law than the plaintiff and his legal team!
(And no, I don't want the case!)
Anyone else sad this story is coming to an end? Lol
It's a cross between 'sad' and the suspense of 'anticipation' turning into anxiety because I'm affraid I won't find my Clown-Shoes, raindow-wig, and big red nose, before episode #4.... sigh 😢
@@tomgraves6463 another cosplay afficionado, hey? I wish I could find my happyface deeliebobbers, I find I get a better giggle out of those than the red nose.. XD
Not sad really, more excited. Given that there's only 1 more episode, I predict: The case was dismissed Nov 13, the other lawyer got a public scolding from the judge, and Steve filed the official dismissal order as evidence along with the 56-page complaint to the Bar. Episode 4 won't tell us the results of that because that's probably too soon for a decision to be made by the Bar. But hey, IANAL, and maybe the Bar really can censure her that fast.

I have a fancy imagination and dress like a bum...
$100 at the front end of the red Ferrari. Amazing that Crazy Town went on that long!
You laugh like the immortal in highlander. I love your videos. Are you from Scotland?
Can't wait for part 4!!!
Pay up sucker! :) Pretty crazy. May as well round up to a million.
Sounds like she is just trying to milk her client for money and should be held accountable for her actions.
I get the feeling that you'll be filing a lawsuit for all your legal fees when all is said and done...
Love when Steve chuckles
I can't wait for the conclusion! xD
