Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Well, perhaps not this entire dispute. Aside from the terms of the raffle, there is the issue of defamation and damage.
Saying someone did not abide by the raffle terms, and saying that Parks was in error is one thing, and I believe he did not in fact follow the terms of the raffle.
However, even if that is true, some of what has been said in the thread has been taken by Parks as defaming his character, and that and the issues of damages arising out of such alleged defamation are separate findings.
I am only pointing out that there are several, separate, findings to be made on these issues. Jumping the first fence doesn't make one the winner of the race.

What about the defamation of her character that Ty has done to Michelle on FB?
That goes both ways IMO. Though I still feel that Ty's behavior here and on FB is what lead to his defamation of his character. But what was said about her in his FB group was outright sickening IMO.
Also, I am a little worried about some of the things said in this pdf, like:
Quote:
2. On or around March 2016, Mr. Park conducted an online raffle to raise money for reptile and amphibian conservation. The online raffle offered the chance to win a blue albino tegu, with tickets selling for $100.00 each. Ms. Cutler purchased 4 tickets from Mr. Park.
|
The bolded part in the PDF just saus a chance to win an blue albino Tegu, it doesn't say "bread by him" which I think might be used as a loophole. I dunno. Am I being paranoid?

What about it? You have to understand this is a legal proceeding. If Michelle wants to sue for defamation she can if she wishes consider doing so. But in THIS proceeding, the judge will make a finding based on any presented evidence of defamation of Parks because that is the issue presented in this particular action. The courtroom is not a playground where the opposing party can present a defense of 'well you said something about me too!'
I am simply saying here that this is a formal proceeding, there are formal rules, and it is not a snowball fight where one just picks up something and throws it at the other side.

Do you think that Park's post on here being extremely rude and dismissive along with claiming he was intentionally withholding information information from Michelle will be considered?
I've never really dealt with legal proceedings except for one time when I was like 16, so this kind of stuff is Greek to me.

I have. People lie in pleadings every day, even if by omission rather than commission as Ty has done in the latest pleading. That's why there is the discovery process.

Yup yup yup. And said process can take days or months depending on the evidence.

I suspect that Ty may have some difficulty proving any financial damages from any alleged defamation, especially with the quantity of his minions expressing their adoration of him despite his actions, as Michelle recounted the raffle events here on Fauna.

No, you’re not being paranoid. Ty is skewing the facts of the raffle to better fit his actions. It’s up to Michelle’s side to correct that by presenting the actual raffle communications. And the judge has to not only see the discrepancy, but understand the significance.
On a very positive note, it is blatantly inconsistent to scream defamation of character has negatively impacted his position as the #1 breeder of quality tegus, while also saying a tegu from some unknown source would be of equal value and quality.

Yes, I noticed that also....I almost posted that it sure looks like he wrote it himself. There are some names at the bottom that look like lawyers. I'm not sure if those names are indicating that they wrote it?
