3. Not a public figure

This could be a slam dunk defamation case.

[madaboutharry]

4. This accused other guy is a middle school teacher.

Accusing someone of a serious crime or felony is prima facie defamation.

5. Then Avenatti should have another client

These assholes need to learn to shut up.

[Hassler]

6. Avennati has himself another winning case.

7. Some comments on Avenattis tweets..Man A tries to give cover for man B and defames

man C - me thinks Whelan is in a whale of trouble.....

[dchill]

8. Having seen the tweet...

I don't see how it's anything less than open and shut defamatory.

IANAL, but still.

9. Not to worry they have great liability insurance.

[TheBlackAdder]

12. Yeah, but writers liability does not generally cover willful intent to injure another.

[KWR65]

14. This is just their 'opinion' so insurance would have to defend a lawsuit.

[malaise]

10. I hope the other guy sues Whelan and the Federalist Society

And I hope Avenatti defends him

[Vinca]

11. I can't help myself. I love Avenatti.

13. K&R...
