Karen Read and her legal team are back in court for the second day of the Daubert Hearing. They are evaluating the Defense 'dog bite expert' to determine what testimony will be permitted in the re-trial and the scope of Dr. Russell's testimony.

We also learned that the prosecution actually went and found the dog, Chloe, and did measurements on her claws and paws and did molds of her jaws and bites as well.

Karen Read is scheduled to go back to court for Oral Arguments with another Daubert Hearing regarding the Digital Defense Expert, Rule 14 Discovery Motions with regard to the ARCA Experts on January 31st, 2025 at 9am ET. Based on how that goes, then possibly we will have an Evidentiary Hearing on February 6th, 2025, at 9am ET that could run into the 7th.

Colin v. Cuthbert is the food lawsuit that stole my heart. It might have been the first Food Court topic. This Trademark Case is filled with cheeky replies from Aldi's social media campaign that is delightful.

Enjoy this blast from the past that you didn't know you needed.

This 2024 Halloween Food Court Live Stream is one of my favorite live streams of the year! I've covered a lot of criminal cases this year so going over food litigations that are less heavy is welcomed.

We also have a long discussion over Dunkin Donuts' hilarious marketing strategies and you'll never guess the brand accounts that partake in the shenanigans.

In 2022, I had the pleasure of bringing you a conversation with Jay Edelson from Edelson PC - YES, the firm that has sued Erika Girardi and helped bring the Girardi Fraud crumbling down.

I was stunned to learn how the California Bar responded to Edelson PC when the fraud was brought to their attention. I had to ask Jay his thoughts on Judge Durkin's Order and whether Diana Jenkins really did pay the orphans and widows of the Lion Air crash disaster?

Blake Lively filed a complaint against Justin Baldoni, his studio Wayfarer, and others, alleging sexual harassment and retaliation. The Complaint was filed with the California Civil Rights Department, which is a necessary step before a lawsuit can be filed in the superior court.

Blake Lively alleges that Baldoni and his associates hired a crisis PR team to embark on a reputationally damaging social media campaign to protect Bladoni’s reputation from allegations of harassment on set during the filming of ‘It Ends With Us.’

Through his legal team, Baldoni gave a statement to the New York Times stating, “[t]hese claims are completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media.”

Is this about reputation, is it about retaliation, or is there more to come?

During the Alex Murdaugh Murder Trial, Juror No. 787 AKA Egg Lady Juror, was dismissed prior to Closing Arguments. It turned out that she had been talking to people about the case that weren't jurors. That is not allowed.

She wrote a book about how she was wrongfully kicked off of the trial called Enough is Enough. She is requesting to unseal the record so that she can prove to the media and bloggers what happened to her was unfair. The Supreme Court of South Carolina denied the motion because when she agreed to see the sealed proceedings, she also agreed to not disseminate it.

Her attorney fired back that Courthouse Clerk Becky Hill talked about the in camera hearing in her book, Behind the Doors of Justice. I know what I'll be reading during the holiday break!

Diddy is denied Motion Seeking Discovery and Evidentiary Hearing related to alleged case leak information by the government. Diddy is allowed to have access to a laptop that doesn’t have access to the internet so that he can review discovery information regarding his case from his lawyers.

Alec Murdaugh filed his full appeal to the South Carolina Supreme Court as they have agreed to take up his case. This can change the standing law of the state that can overturn the verdict. The main grounds for appeal is that an elected official, Clerk of Court, Becky Hill, tampered with the jury. Becky Hill’s 76 Ethics Complaints are on hold while the criminal investigation is in progress.

Jay-Z & Diddy's accuser did an interview with NBC. They admitted to there being inconsistencies in their allegations. Jay-Z's attorney, Alex Spiro, filed that interview to the record in hopes to get the file dismissed. Diddy also has given up the fight to get bail as he sets his sights on other pressing matters.

TikTok asks the Supreme Court to take up the ruling and filed an injunction while they review the case.

Tom Sandoval is representing himself in the Rachel lawsuit. Hopefully he is doing this because they are in mediation for settlement.

Tom Girardi's Prosecutor has recommended 14 years of prison.
