DM seems to be between a rock and a hard place, in a "no win" situation. If he lets the hearing go forward we could hear some testimony from Mosey that is very toxic to the cult. But if DM defaults to prevent that the judge will award damages, and being that Marty is married to Mosey than in effect DM would be paying money to Marty.

And as was said in the comments...

I think that the midget would rip out his own EYEBALLS before he would give one thin dime to Marty.

Judge to rule on whether Narconon Arrowhead must produce employee related documents in the negligence case of Heather Landmeier case out of OK. Of course, the cult is fighting it.

Most important matter because Plaintiff claims that staff gave Heather Landmeier drugs when she was in the program and she is now in a vegetable state after they dumped her at a motel during an overdose. Records requested include those of staff relapses and such. Article gives history of problems there including deaths and many other lawsuits ongoing for Negligence, Fraud and Wrongful Death

Quick question - I just read the article and am unclear: the hearing's set for Wednesday @ 10:00 AND the Judge really expected to rule on that day, too? Is the hearing not truly a traditional hearing (with arguments presented) -- rather, it's just the format opted-for by the Judge to opine on the record from the bench?

JB (It's going on the calendar either way - just want to understand a bit better, sorry.)

The plaintiffs have been trying to get these records for some time. Through discovery process, these specific records have not been turned over, hence the motion to compel them to produce them.

The judge will rule on this motion on the 18th. That is what the hearing is about. Whether to approve the motion to compel production of the documents or not. If approved by the judge, if ruled in favor of plaintiff's motion, Narconon will be given so many days to produce the documents or be held in contempt of court, with sanctions.

As the article states:

A judge is set to rule this week if Narconon Arrowhead will have to produce documents related to incidents of drug and alcohol use by its staff, according to court documents.

A hearing is set for 10 a.m. Wednesday in Pittsburg County District Court in the lawsuit against Narconon filed on behalf of a Narconon graduate now in a vegetative state after overdosing on heroin and oxycontin. - See more at: http://mcalesternews.com/local/x865...Arrowhead-case-this-week#sthash.LMlqLFI4.dpuf

The docket states:
08/21/2013 F&E PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO COMPEL DEFT. NARCONON OF OKLA., INC. TO PRODUCE DOCUMENTS RELATED TO INCIDENTS OF DRUG OR ALCOHOL USE BY RESIDENTS AND/OR EMPLOYEES
08/23/2013 F&E ORDER (9-18-13 AT 10 AM) S/BLAND

Hearings:
09/18/2013 10:00am MOTION TO COMPEL

When a ruling is made, the docket will reflect the date and state "RULING"

Hope this clears up any confusion

This thread really should be in the Legal and Government Actions against Scientology section, and be made a sticky so it can be easily found and updated.

http://www.forum.exscn.net/forumdisplay.php?99-Legal-and-Government-Actions-against-Scientology

Perhaps a message from the OP to a Mod about this should be made. It can be made as 'report post' with asking for this, with a link to the OP

Great suggestion, AnonyMary; thank you! I just started a new thread in the 'Legal & Gov't.' forum so I didn't have to bother the Mods.

Here's where the calendar is now: http://www.forum.exscn.net/showthre...-2013-amp-2014&p=847854&viewfull=1#post847854 and it will be updated soon with additional dates to track. Please add any new court-related dates to the new thread and we can simply let this one 'die'.

Thanks JBWriter for posting in that section about this thread.

Here is another upcoming hearing on all 3 cases. A Demurrer to the plaintiffs' Amended Complaints

A demurrer is a pleading in a lawsuit that objects to or challenges a pleading filed by an opposing party. The word demur means "to object"; a demurrer is the document that makes the objection. Lawyers informally define a demurrer as a defendant saying, "So what?" to the pleading.

Typically, the defendant in a case will demur to the complaint, but it is also possible for plaintiff to demur to an answer. The demurrer challenges the legal sufficiency of a claim, cause of action, or to the defenses set forth in an answer.

Thanks, AnonyMary! :biggrin:

So...

On October 17, the Judge ruled that the discovery phase in this case is stopped until the 3rd mediation is finished? And whatever happens at the 3rd mediation attempt will be reported/discussed at the Dec 20 case mgmt conference?

Is this correct?

(I'll update the calendar shortly.)

EDIT: Added Evans/Gallion v Narconon to the calendar. :yes: Link to ESMB calendar thread here: http://www.forum.exscn.net/showthre...-2013-amp-2014&p=867804&viewfull=1#post867804
