Trump supporter Nick Sandmann just lost $200 million from his fake lawsuit hahahaha!
His attorney made a rookie move and failed to file his lawsuit a minimum of 10 days after giving notice demanding a retractions from the defendents to according to Kentucky state statue. The attorney filed 5 days after demanding the retraction voiding the $200 million libel aspect of the case :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:321GFY
Nick Sandmann’s Lawyers Just Cost Him Millions with a Rookie Mistake
"As a result of alleged harm to his reputation, Sandmann’s lawsuit asks for $50 million in compensatory damages and $200 million in punitive damages.
The punitive damages, however, may be a problem due to a requirement under Kentucky law to give sufficient notice in libel cases. The statute, KRS 411.051, says that in order to collect punitive damages, a plaintiff has to show that the defendant “failed to make conspicuous and timely publication of a correction after receiving a sufficient demand for correction.” The law specifies that a “timely” correction has to be within 10 business days after receiving a demand for one.
Sandmann’s complaint, which was filed and dated Feb. 19, 2019, says that his counsel send a demand for a retraction on Feb. 14. That’s just five days before they filed the lawsuit, which appears to be an insufficient amount of time."
