At my suggestion Parker Family is introducing a bit more ‘order in the court’ (pun intended) so from this point forward cases will be addressed one at a time and will be given an official number and title.
The current case is
Case 15 - American Eagle vs Taps and future lawsuits will go from there.
If you wish to file a suit you may introduce your claims now, but please refrain from starting the arguments on them until their number comes up so things don’t get confusing.
SWA, that can actually be your job if you’re still wanting to bailiff. When someone proposes a lawsuit you can officially announce its number and name.

Excellent.

Your honor, I contend that American Eagle’s suit has no basis and should be thrown out of court. His claim that my client stole ‘his’ quote is false. At no time was the quote in question made the exclusive property of American Eagle, nor was American Eagle even the first person to use said quote.
A simple forum search reveals many members, myself included, using the quote in question before American Eagle.
As Exhibit A I present
this post containing the earliest use of the quote, according to search, made by The Scribbler, who was quoting an Odyssey Tattler journalist. If you’ll notice the date, this post was made 3 years before American Eagle even joined this message board.
