Scoville's frivolous lawsuit
This is an official statement made by the AHBL regarding the suit filed in Texas Court by Richard Scoville. This statement has been authorized by our legal council. On Saturday December 17, 2005, the AHBL was served at it's Indiana address with a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and Suit filed in Bexar County Texas Circuit Court. The suit seeks in total 3.525 million dollars in damage for Mr Richard Scoville, broken down as follows:
$2,000,000 "For the loss of "benefit of hte bargain" to negotiate and conduct business in good faith"
$1,000,000 "For the continuing damages to personal business credit"
$500,000 "For his emotional distress occasioned by the wrongful acts set forth above, including hte personal humiliation and embarassment in hte Usenet portion of the internet"
$25,000 "For the costs incurred to constantly change ISPs and the escalating costs to maintain an ongoing business"
Very shortly the AHBL will put up a page and ledger requesting donations to fight this case which is 1100 miles from the AHBL base of operations. We will also be posting in PDF format over the next few days all public record paperwork for this case. Your donations will be put to good use in defending the AHBL and are greatly appreciated. Please note that the AHBL has never been financially profitable and even with Google ads is run entirely out of my pocket. Thank you for your consideration in this matter, I will vet all questions posted here through council beforeanswering them.
Please note that because of the TRO a removal of the "Free Speech Store" has been in force since Monday December 19, 2005, in full cooperationwith said order.

IMHO this is extortion or his form of intimidation. I am surprised that a Texas County Court can issue a TRO to someone in Indiana.
Dick is claiming he will sue Canada's Sympatico. Those County Courts have a long reach.
While I am some what amazed that THE Dick got this far and this is a serious "problem"(legal funding might be, but I think the rest will be ok) for Brain, I can't help but continue ROTFLing at his antics.
Like I posted before, I can just imagine the legal savvy Dick and his equally enthusiastic pals winning this one..... The court is going to love him, and especially all his past and current actions....
..... *cough* ..... Of course that is assuming it gets that far, and his pals would actually help/go there/etc. I would love to say more, but I won't bother pointing out the flaws since they are quite obvious & he will get hit by them soon enough.
Darn, maybe I can scurry up some loose change to donate...
We can laugh, but US courts have awarded large judgements in stupid cases before. Stella and McDonalds is the most quoted one.
Dick can honestly say he was too stupid to know the difference.
One way to battle the prick is to sue him for the EXACT same reasons and amounts. If he wins his case, we file the same case against him, show the precedent and ask Dick for the money. He's done EVERYTHING to a number of us in the same manner that he claims AHBL did. What an idiot.
Now why would Dick lie? Let's take his claim of 2,300+ full $40.00 members as gospel, let's presume they are full members. That would make an annual income for FSS of over USD $92,000.00 we can drop a dime to the IRS on Dick.
He'll probably write a speech on how unfair the IRS is to him.
