The three former Sea Org members suing Scientology for labor trafficking in Tampa — Australia residents Valeska Paris and Gawain and Laura Baxter — have answered Scientology’s attempts to derail their suit with a powerful collection of legal briefs and declarations, and we have them for you to read.
Good luck to the plaintiffs. If the authority of the court can be used to compel people to “arbitration” then surely the court is required to ascertain that the contracts are not unconscionable
"Unconscionable".... a word that describes every $cieno 'contract'. There have been fairly recent changes to civil and criminal law that take human trafficking very seriously. I hope that the court actually exams the $cieno contracts and holds a hearing on that matter. Unless a court finds those contracts one sided and nixes them, no former member will ever be able to successfully sue the CO$.
As for the corporate structure of the $cienoverse, yes, Dave Miscavige controls all of it. Every freaking bit.
Unfortunately not reading before signing has not ever been an excuse in a court of law. I understand that the circumstances here are massively different than a simple automotive contract. I hope that a Judge is able to see that too.

This floor wax tastes terrible on my ice cream.
