I'm fawkin stuck on this part of the motion. How is Pat a member of the SFWA if he's not paying annual dues??? That exemption is suppose to only be for PoC's. There also seems to be a little gamesmanship with the wording stating they've never paid Pat during this time frame without acknowledging either way if they made payments on his behalf

I think you're right and they're being cagey. They don't have "copies" of any checks or payments. They're not saying they don't have any records. He probably didn't write a check (debatable that he even has a bank account), so they don't have a "copy" of a cashed check. If he paid by cash or credit card, they would have a record of it but might not have a "copy" of a receipt.

They're trying to protect their records for any number of reasons.

It literally says that they don't have any copies of payments either to or from Pat. How would they explain to the IRS if they got audited and couldn't show receipts of union due payments?

It's not even in question.
Page 2:
Invoices only disclose amounts owed by Mr. Tomlinson. They say nothing about his finances or assets. Moreover, records of payments made by Mr. Tomlinson would not reveal his finances or assets.
They're only giving the last 4 digits of the AMEX card implying Big Dick Jerry should go figure out the rest somehow and subpoena Pig's bank. The rationale is anything else they have doesn't directly show Rick's "finances and assets," which is what BDJ is ostensibly after. They're not stating it very clearly and trying to play the judge. Hopefully BDJ is prepared to expose their Technicality Tomlinson-style logic.

Like I said, I think they're being very literal about the word "copy". They wouldn't need to explain anything to the IRS, because they have "records" of payments as well as their bank statements. If a member, like Pat, pays in cash, they make an entry in their records that Pat paid and is current on his dues. But do they have a "copy" of that payment? Not necessarily, unless they generated a receipt and kept a copy of it.

Do I think this is a good tactic for them to use? No. But with subpoenas and lawsuits, sometimes people try everything, because A) it might work and B) if it doesn't, you've stalled and cost the other party money.

Whatever happened to that Scientologist Writers of the Future thing Pig was involved with? I think someone once figured out the current status of that, but I don't remember. Please be patient, I have special needs.

Can someone give me a simple yes or no for a law retard: is patrick completely fucked?

Same question for sfwa
I think Patrick's only hope is to roll over on the sfwa and basically say that this was their lolsuit and they were the ones who paid for it entirely and it was just his name on it, and he didn't understand what he was doing and didn't know that he could be liable, etc etc. Basically what wives of ponzi schemers say when the feds come for them after their husbands get them to open businesses in their name. This probably wouldn't work but it would be really funny.

SFWA is probably fucked if the IRS takes a serious look into them. Because of their political affiliations I would say it's not so likely, but possible.
