Dragon Family lawsuit against the United Nations

I'll try to avoid big words here. You seem to think that that because a lawsuit is filed that the facts claimed have validity. Above I corrected your error. Do to try learn something.

Here is the full post: http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=7895661&postcount=117

My point is that if a wife for example falsely accuses her husband of having raped their 2-years-old child, then the man's reputation will go down the drain. Because it may take a long time before the truth about the matter is known. And then it doesn't matter that he is completely innocent. The lawsuit will cause harm even when as in this example it is a completely fraudulent claim.

That's nice. Go and learn something.
 
What I would like to know is if there is some penalty for knowingly filing false lawsuits? Can for example a person be sent to prison for filing a false lawsuit?

In the US, no you cannot be sent to prison for filing a frivolousness lawsuit. You can be forced to pay the other side's costs. If you're a member of the Bar association you could be disciplined by the State Bar association.

You can be sent for to prison for perjury. This could be lying on the stand or lying in a document covered under the penalties and pains of perjury.

That was an intelligent and reasonable question. Ask more of them.

A following question is then: What is the rationale for NOT being able to punish people who file fraudulent lawsuits? In other situations, frauds are illegal, so why not in this case?

If you have deliberately lied to a court then a crime has been commited and is punishable. By jail time.

The crime is perjury. If you lie under oath or in certain legal documents it's perjury. Just filing a frivolousness lawsuit is not a crime. You can get stuck with paying the defendant's legal fees in many instances.

Aha! So if Keenan in this case has been deliberately lying he has committed a crime. I wonder what happens if Keenan didn't know about any lies and that the Dragon Family has been lying. Then it will be some kind of international matter. :confused:

Who decides if the Dragon Family lawsuit is frivolous or not?

I think he'll be lucky to not end up paying the legal fees for the people he's trying to sue. Of course since the Dragon Family doesn't exist it will be kind of hard for them to ask for sanctions.
 
Well, if he didn't know it can't be a deliberate lie. He will simply lose and be lumbered with expenses for both sides.

If he did know, he will be commiting purgery.

Are you seriously not aware of how the legal systems of most Western countries work?
 
How can the Vatican keep its own power hierarchy in order without risking betrayal etc? They mind control each other!!! :D Seriously. They trauma-based mind control all members of their own shady power structure.

Or they could keep their hierarchy in order by being an organisation of wealth and influence, populated by members of a shared political belief, through the same mechanisms as any other religion, using the internal system of "laws" and codes of conduct, and procedures as other churches and organisations.

Of course, if you actually wanted to supply evidence for something, go right ahead. Now would be a good time to start.
 
So when will this happen for the Dragon Family lawsuit (filed in late November if I remember correctly)?

When it reaches a hearing if not before.

Seriously, why not look this stuff up instead of asking here? It is a whacko claim, and there is nothing that suggests any kind of evidence supporting it. You have faailed to identify any evidence supporting it.
 
I don't even know how the Swedish legal system works.

Do you not think that might be of some benefit to find out before continuing with this particular discussion? The fundamental principles of the system in the US might be of some help before you continue to refuse to believe that something you know nothing about works differently to your imagination?

No, not for such a long time such as for centuries! There would be some people who exposed the conspiracy. Mind control is used to ensure that something like that doesn't happen. Pretty hardcore. :eek:
