Captain Bob Submits Affidavit For Gallop Lawsuit

oh and for the record, in case anyone took what I said the wrong way, I was NOT referring to lawyers, but rather the people who hire them to sue for silly bullcrap.

(I could see how my earlier statement, as vague as it was, could be misinterpreted).

TAM:)

isnt that the point where a lawyers ethics are supposed to come into play?

I read it the way that you intended it and did not think for a moment that you were referring to lawyers, but rather to those that I might call 'professional plaintiffs' (some of whom just make up allegations of wrongdoing or negligence out of wholecloth - it's quite astounding sometimes.)

Mind you, the lawyers who accept such clients and pursue such frivolous and unsubstantiated claims aren't much better than their clients, in my view, and I have no respect for them. Similarly, I despise doctors who prostitute themselves for the fees that they can charge to give 'expert' reports and 'expert' opinion evidence at trial when they know full well that their patient's problems are unrelated to the claim made and when their 'expert' report is utter nonsense when it says otherwise. Unfortunately for both of us, there are small minorities in both of our professions who bastardize their oaths and who will say or do anything for their own purposes. Fortunately for both of us, they are a very, very small minority indeed, and they are not in any way representative of our professions as a whole, nor do they in any way, shape or form reflect the professionalism and honour of our professions as a whole.

Shouldn't finding out where he is flying be an easy thing to do. I know finding where a physician is practicing is not very hard when you know their name.

How? What do you suggest? That info is not in an FAA database as far as I know.
 
Quick question: Is Gallop's lawsuit basically that her injuries were in fact caused by the government, with her "proof" being the PF911T FDR analysis?

Quick answer: Not exactly. Her lawsuit (this time around) is the usual mishmash of "truth"er nonsense, alleging all manner of government conspiracy, of course, all mixed together so as to be both internally and externally inconsistent. Not to mention failing to set out a proper, justiciable claim. When the defendants brought a motion to dismiss Gallop's complaint on several grounds, she submitted several affidavits, including one from Balsamo, in an effort to bolster her insufficient complaint. However, affidavits submitted on a motion to dismiss do not correct a deficient pleading.

But yes, she is now claiming that the government caused her injuries because it faked the terrorist attacks, and that no plane crashed into the Pentagon, despite a previous lawsuit in which she negotiated and accepted a monetary settlement on behalf of herself and her son on the basis that terrorists did, indeed, hijack and crash Flight 77 into the Pentagon. (And despite having also previously sued various banks, claiming that they caused her injuries because they failed to notice or notify officials about monetary transactions made through the banks, which amounted to money laundering that funded the terrorists to carry out the 9/11 attacks, including the hijacking and crashing of Flight 93 into the Pentagon.)

Bizarro-world, indeed.

Marry me... As a qualifier you must mumble legal precedence while we make lurve over and over while I....

Yeah, not gonna happen.
 
This lawsuit is ridiculous and I predict quite confidently that it will be dismissed.

For starters, April Gallop cannot sustain a lawsuit that is based upon the argument that Flight 77 was not hijacked and did not crash into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 because in previous lawsuits, she asserted (quite correctly) that Flight 77 was hijacked by terrorists, and did indeed crash into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, and in the "September 11 Litigation" matter, her lawyers negotiated and she accepted a settlement for her damages and her son's damages based on the fact that Flight 77 was hijacked by terrorists and crashed into the Pentagon.
She is estopped from making a claim arising out the same event based on an alleged set of facts that is contrary to the set of facts upon which she previously sued, negotiated and accepted a settlement.

There are several other reasons why her claims will not succeed, of course, but even the most simple minded of the morons in the conspiracy fantasist 'movement' should be able to wrap his single brain cell around this one simple fact: April Gallop sought, negotiated, and accepted a settlement on the basis that Flight 77 was hijacked by terrorists and crashed into the Pentagon and, therefore, she cannot now purport to seek damages on the basis that Flight 77 was not hijacked by terrorists, and did not crash into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.

I believe we discussed this briefly back in December 2008 when Gallop first issued this particular claim, but it really is a shame that taxpayer dollars and judicial resources have to be wasted on such nonsense.

Oh, and here's a pro-tip: when the e-mail address that your lawyer puts on a court filing ends in "@gmail.com", you should be worried; when you have three lawyers signing on to your court filing and all three of them give e-mail addresses that end in "@gmail.com", you should be very, very worried.

ETA:
Summoning worked, even without any direct contact... perhaps you should work on an application for the MDC... :D


Thanks to LashL for her crisp, professional explanation. I'm not a lawyer, but I couldn't make sense of Gallop's lawsuit. Cheney is an evil super-villain who wants to kill thousands of Americans to do--well, whatever the hell he wanted to do--but he is responsible for failing to evacuate the Pentagon to protect the people working there from a plane that didn't hit the building.

For Cap'n Bob, this is all in a day's non-work, but the court system should not be expected to appreciate his special sense of humor and his unique take on reality.
 
It appears that April Gallop has requested the assistance of Cowboy Bob Balsamo in her most recent (of many) lawsuits.


This is from the PFFFT site:

I thought I'd have a look at Veale's affidavit...

This is one of his points of "evidence":

9. In addition, showing the resistance to the subject matter which flows on, I submitted questions to the editor of The Nation, Katrina vanden Heuvel, without response, and submitted questions to James Risen, Philip Shenon, and Craig Whitney of the New York Times, without response. I submitted questions to Christopher Hitchens, of Vanity Fair, Bill Moyers, fo PBS‟s Bill Moyers‟ Journal, Perry Anderson, Professor of History and Sociology at UCLA and an editor of the New Left Review, Rachel Maddow, of MSNBC and Keith Olbermann, of MSNBC without response.

Not sure. I just know for physicians, finding out where someone practices is as easy as knowing their name, and calling the provincial medical colleges.

Well I'm sure that Ms. Gallop is going to return the money she was awarded in the previous lawsuit so she can now pursue her new "no planer" lawsuit. That would be the honest thing to do.

...

Poor Balsamo; one of the top dolts on 911 issues in the world along with all his fellow 60 or so pilots for dolt ideas on 911. His forum is the most anti-intellectual collection of failed ideas you can find on 911 specialized in flying which Balsamo reaches new lows in stupid. He mistakes the truth about himself as an attack on him as he lies about people and insists he will put a bullet through our heads for supporting the government story as he postulates delusions that only fool idiots, a few dirt dumb neoNAZIs and people who fail to think for themselves.

Good news he is not an airline captain! What does the FAA think about delusional minds making up lies. Is that grounding material for the FAA if they see his paranoia and his death threats?
 
Can reheat reheat or another pilot help me out here...
Captain Bob indicates 4000 of flight time.
That doesn't strike me as a lot and also the airlines he worked for are smaller regional airlines I take it?

It isn't.
The average trade apprenticeship is 5000 hours and takes about 4-5 years to achieve.
So 4000 hours would be fairly low on the promotion ladder.
If he -was- a captain (First Officer) it would have been on a feeder (as you guessed) and flying something like a Metro

Bizarro-world, indeed.

If this world were just or more rational, the government would first take back our money that she lied to receive. Then she can proceed with this scam lawsuit.

I've always preferred the British system where the loser in a lawsuit pays both parties' attorneys.
