In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, if you bring a lawsuit against a city’s police department and individual officers under a contingency fee arrangement (commonly known as “no win, no fee”) and the case is dismissed with costs awarded to the defendants, you, as the claimant, are typically responsible for paying those costs.

Key Points:
1. Contingency Fee Agreements:
• In Wisconsin, many personal injury attorneys operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if you win your case. 
• However, these agreements usually cover the attorney’s fees and may not include other litigation expenses or adverse costs.
2. Responsibility for Defendants’ Costs:
• If the court orders you to pay the defendants’ legal costs after a dismissal, you are generally liable for these costs.
• Contingency fee agreements typically do not obligate your attorney to cover the opposing party’s costs.
3. After-the-Event (ATE) Insurance:
• To mitigate the risk of adverse costs, some plaintiffs obtain ATE insurance, which can cover the defendants’ legal costs if the case is unsuccessful.
• It’s important to discuss with your attorney whether obtaining such insurance is advisable in your case.

Recommendations:
• Review Your Agreement: Carefully examine your contingency fee agreement to understand your financial obligations, especially concerning potential adverse costs.
• Consult Your Attorney: Discuss the possibility of adverse cost awards and whether ATE insurance or other protective measures are appropriate for your situation.

Understanding the specifics of your agreement and the associated risks is crucial in legal proceedings, particularly when facing potential liability for the opposing party’s legal costs.

I can only assume his lawyers have gotten dashcam footage they didn't have before. It's starting to look like MPD has some real retards working for them, even by general cop standards.
That seems to be the downfall of every prosecution that faces good lawyers. There are so many dumb cops that even a small amount of digging usually turns up a decent defense. In the cops' defense, they aren't there preparing for a lawsuit, they are there to make sure Chubby Cheesesteak isn't making pepperoni.

A cop in the OJ case went into the house, grabbed a blanket and tossed it over the bloody corpse of Nicole to prevent the photographers from taking photos of the body. By the time the lawyers brought this up in court they were able to claim all of Simpson's hair and blood evidence at the scene could have come from that blanket.

I don't know if it will matter or not? But the recording that torswats posted wasn't a call to the MPD, it was a veterans crisis line and they notified the police. That little psycho had to get creative because direct calls weren't working anymore. Seems fucked up that Rick might get paid even though the police only showed up a handful of times and the person making the calls went way above and beyond in order to make that happen. Torswats gets sentenced next month and hopefully we get to find out more info on who he admitted to swatting.
How did TorSwats get involved in Pat posting? Or was he inspired by the pepperoni incident?

Didn't patpost other than on his telegram re swattings, was probably aware of him through kiwifarms, as many of his targets besides schools and politicians were prominent lolcows or adjacent. Many of them were swatted, some several times but none acted the way Pat did on his first one (or if they did, no angel provided audio evidence for everyone to laugh at).

Toswats never patposted . He just swatted him and admitted he did it in few telegram posts.
Dan invited him here and i nuked everything related to it. Thats when i "banned" mullen. He had like 10 alts anyway just like boomia. Then someone posted some conversation from telegram and i had to nuke all that to you dummies.

Keep it mind, since this is federal court, the jury would be made up of any citizen in the eastern half of Wisconsin, since that is this court's territory. So the jury will be whiter and more Republican than a jury from just the city of Milwaukee.

Edit: The jury pool might only be from the southeast section of Wisconsin, since Green Bay has its own Division. Still, it covers a lot of white and Republican counties.




It's funny because all of Pat's fuck ups are self-inflicted. We don't do anything but laugh at him stepping on rake after rake.
I can literally trace the casual chain. The swatting is due to the notoriety from kiwifarms. His kiwifarms thread was becuase he panicked ole sweet caverlock who didnt have the means for an attorney himself. And the lawsuit was becuase he couldnt handle people mocking him online. If he had just stopped doing felonious dcma requests i never would have made the original forum. I tried many times to get rid of ownership and he kept forcing me to engage.

"Police were called to a scene in which it was reported that somebody had just murdered their wife. Is it true that in 2011 you pled no contest to threatening to murder your wife?"

*Hysterical pig noises*
The Pig going on the stand would be the ultimate rib bounty. It would be like we finally found the end of the rainbow. I have no doubt he would attempt to lie about the no contest plea and immediately get called out. The trial would ground to a halt while the attorney just laid into him and he responded with increasingly less credible lies. And the anger...burrrrp...fawwwk, I'm getting hard.
