REBECCA Trial Coming up

^^^Read the article (I know, the grey-on-white hurts my eyes, too).

Sprecher isn't suing. The press agent who leaked to the other investors is appealing a suit Sprecher already won.

Yeah. But does anyone stage door? What's the view like from the jury box? Does the judge have a standby? Any merch?

REBECCA Trial Coming up

I thought Maxim was acquitted years ago for Rebecca's murder?

REBECCA Trial Coming up

Yes, very funny!

But it's interesting to note that the trial court ruled that Sprecher did nothing wrong in telling Thiboudeaux (the press rep) to keep quiet when they began to suspect a fraud had been committed by a third party. Per the court, as long as Sprecher didn't order the press rep to overtly lie (which he didn't), the producer was in the clear.

I don't know, but I can imagine Thiboudeaux is suing because he can't find work. I know every place I've ever worked has had a rule against disseminating confidential info, whether I thought the info should be made public or not.

REBECCA Trial Coming up

Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems like a dangerous precedent set by the trial court. A well-meaning person attached to the production realizes the producer is involved in fraud committed by a third party to the production, and that well-meaning person tries to warn an unsuspecting investor against losing money (literally making an investment on false information) because of that fraud. Isn't that against all the supposed investor protections provided by the SEC and just plain old "the law" or, you know, ethics?

You would think. You. Would. Think. (Oh, and check your inbox for a PM. I suspect your username is not a coincidence?)
