See the update below. Just last week, in Jane Doe 1’s lawsuit against Scientology, Judge Robert Broadbelt granted David Miscavige’s motion to quash his summons, telling Jane Doe that she’s going to have to try even harder to find the elusive Scientology leader before he is considered served and an official defendant in her case.
“It is simply time for Miscavige to simply step up, as a responsible member of our community, to generally appear in this case and defend himself against the serious allegations being made against him by the Plaintiff in this case. He is the apparent leader of a worldwide religious organization with considerable funds and support. He has (literally) teams of lawyers to defend him. Now is the time to utilize them to defend this case on its merits.”
Yes, yes and oh, in case I forgot to say it yes!
Love the update, but you were constrained by the bounds of propriety so allow me to restate it correctly: In an attempt to avoid public humiliation, Miscavige rapidly (finally) accepted service. Judge Hammock, who considered he had taken a good joke way too far chose to publish the decision anyway.
I can’t wait to laugh at poor victim Davey’s answer.
Watch lawyers sent by a number of corporations appeal furiously to the supreme court (if they can) that defendant David "he is NOT insane!" Miscavige has never heard of the lawsuit and that is why they are whining so loud. And who is in charge of those corporations? It remains a mystery!
I guess DM's legal team decided to give up the hiding and start playing ball. The 'antiquated' service regs do need updating and good luck getting Congress to update the Uniform Commercial Code. Given that the locations where the papers were left are, according to the IRS, places of his business, service should have been held done months ago.
Now, what about that Judge Broadbelt? Why can't he see the camouflage for what it is?

In a word: yeah!

Can a non-journalist pay to get a copy of that tentative ruling so it could be printed out and framed? Asking for a friend...
Tik tok Dave.

You've been served, Captain Blackheart.
Thanks for the ongoing updates.
This is exciting.
DM can't "win" forever.
YES! About time!
