Forensic accountants can be very good at spotting the signs of that. Plus I doubt Alex Jones hires accountants any more competent than his attorneys.
Every public statement Jones has made since his ass was first dragged into court has only worsened his circumstances. A bankruptcy court is far less likely to be sympathetic to his plight when he’s basically announcing to all the world that the bankruptcy ploy is little more than a gambit to avoid paying any of the damages he owes.
They won’t. You can’t use bankruptcy to weasel out of paying judgments. The courts already noted his bad faith actions and stated desire to commit fraud against them.
Seize everything
EVERYTHING
Liquidate
Pay out the victims
Default judgments are usually considered acceptance of all elements of the Complaint as alleged. Since the default was not excusable and the result of bad faith actions on Jones’s part courts are going to take a dim view of such arguments.
I don’t think there is a lot of wiggle room for appealing Bankruptcy courts beyond claims that a decision was arbitrary or capricious. (I could be mistaken there)
Wonder if he’ll face charges for his courtroom antics or has that ship sailed?
Now, I am not normally in favor of the debtor’s prison, but exceptions can, and should be made.
So, he’d be ‘poisoning the water’ again.
He was up to 150,000 USD in court-ordered penalties two years ago. I haven’t found anything with dollar amounts for additional sanctions this year.
He and his lawyers had a chance to argue that, and chose not to. No judge worth their law license would allow a second chance to argue that in front of a court for which that question is irrelevant.
Recommendation: When reading this imagine its being spoken in Samuel Jackson’s voice.
What about personal responsibility?!!?!?
so, back to where he started? a bullhorn on the sidewalk on Guadalupe Ave. in Austin? driving up and down Congress Ave. in an old car, shouting into a megaphone. yeah, cuz that’s how i remember him back then.
fuck alex jones.
