Pets Warehouse update
 

The U.S. District Court recently held a status conference in Novak's
original Federal lawsuit. A transcript of this hearing is now available. It
reveals quite a lot about the nature of the lawsuit and the Court's
perceptions about what is happening.

For those of you who are not aware of what is going on here, some time ago I
received really bad service from Pets Warehouse. After complaining to the
company and sharing my experiences on the Aquatic Plants email list, myself
and others who publicly spoke up about their bad service were sued for
$15,000,000. Read about it at http://petsforum.com/psw . You might also wish
to peruse the ongoing conversation about the case; search for the "Discuss
the Lawsuit" link at the bottom of http://petsforum.com/psw .

I got the strong impression that the judge thinks Novak is full of it
and that his suit is frivolous, but isn't really permitted to say so
at this point.

What about the sentence that starts "I think your conduct, Mr. Novak.."?

I think even the judge is hinting that Novak will release useless corporate
information to the public on request of information from the defendants in
order to sue them for breach of contract. Can someone take this guy
out(Novak) to pasture already (*cough* enlightenment through doing real farm
work) and save everyone this waste of time and money.

The matter in this document would be a two minute issue if the intent was to
produce legitimate proof. Buying his own free time versus defendant lawyer
time is not sophisticated at all as alluded to by the judge. It is a stall
tactic to settle and or drive up court costs. I personally would like to see
legally staffed firms go the distance.

defendants still active are going the distance. We have no reason not

I hope you get bucketloads from the plaintiff :)

I didn't understand a word of what you are trying to get at here...
Two of the defendants are represented by a lawyer, the rest of us are
representing ourselves, and two of the defendants are lawyers
themselves.

If you read inbetween the lines of this transcript, you can imagine
there is much that will come to light that Novak wants very much to
keep off the public record. As far as going the distance...all of us
defendants still active are going the distance. We have no reason not
to. We all smell blood.
