The only people who need to fear depositions are liars.
This is great, it isn't like it is 1995 any more, 20 years have gone by, and everyone knows a great deal more, and the ones doing the deposing, literally, may not know everything but they know more than enough that the dwarf can not disclose.
I have no problem being deposed by $cientology, though they seem to have a problem with what I say...
This is my last deposition, in 97 I think...
They had set up a camera in one of their Lawyer's offices (Sinclair) in Alexandria..
DEPOSITION STARTS
Lawyer Rosen asked: Mr Lerma, why do you continue to say bad things about the Church of Scientology???
Lerma: Mr Rosen, in your question, are you referring to the international psychopolitical terrorist organization running a rapidly shrinking but still brisk fraud upon innocent citizens worldwide dba scientology and related entities and front groups???
Rosen (Face gets red) said (acting angry) (waving arms around) : Mr. Lerma, you can't describe the CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY that way.
Lerma: Mr Rosen are trying to trick me into committing perjury on your behalf?
Rosen: This deposition is OVER.
THE END.
I wish they would release that video they made....but they haven't even released a copy of my own SP declare, so I suppose I am still in good standing?
Compare the above to:
Q. MR. MISCAVIGE, DO YOU HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION?
A. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT QUESTION MEANS.
Q. DID YOU GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL?
A. NO, I DIDN'T.
I'd bet a ham sammich he'll pay up before he allows himself to get hammered by an SP attorney. Of course, he'll have his atty's delay as long as possible before reaching into CSI's piggy bank for the hush money.
They have to be reaching the bottom of the delaying tactics barrel. That anti-SLAPP card had to be near the bottom of the deck.
He is ranting and raving and letting the lawyers know that they suck. Throwing things around and kicking something or someone. Too freaked out to eat or workout, decides to get drunk. Imagining scenarios of Marty getting what he deserves. Psycho
IAS fund raising time. Build that war chest.
Options:
1) Flee to Bulgravia.
2) Play the Bigot Card.
3) Fake his death and go into hiding while continuing to secretly run Scientology.
4) Organize a Religious Freedom Crusade in Texas.
5) Throw Ron under the bus, blaming everything on him.
6) Continue to throw as many curve balls as possible into the Judicial system to delay as much as possible.
7) Some combination of the above.

I can see it now - every single Sea Org staff, Class 5 Staff and public are called to a mandatory special briefing tonight! If you want to keep your status of "good standing" - you must attend. Then COB will go satellite telling the clubbed seals that the Cherch of Scientology is winning...with the epic expansion and opening of Stupid Power - the SP's are howling and they are trying to destroy the Cherch. Everyone must give up all of their money now...or else....oh wait....that has already been done before - 1,000,000 times in the last 35 years~! No one will show up except the Sea Org and a few die hards that are broke!15 lawyers don't come cheap. And if at some time, they had to sue for common assault, oh ... right...
