You can't swap in a raw book, unless you access or ability to duplicate the inner well. Which has yet to be shown to be in practice. And if you had that capability, along with being able to discretely open and reseal a slab, you wouldn't be wasting your efforts or resources on $100 slabs.

As @Dr. Balls said, no one swaps out cheap books. You'd move backwards financially, like spending 35 cents each to counterfeit quarters. If a comic is under $300, no one has messed with it.

So true, and so obvious I would think, but yet we have some people questioning everything because CGC has not done a great job of clarifying exactly what has happened or how to spot tampering  and that nobody has even swapped outside of them being reholdered.

And I too had someone email on an old slab! not even the ones being used for the scam, not yelling, just saying the sides are open, is it tampered with? I was able to tell them what they need to be looking for with the posts, and this was normal with old holders, and also told them the older holders are not even evolved, they have the label attached to the inner well! So actually the older holders are more secure ironically.

CGC should be all over this explaining this so I don't have to do it, and many of the people freaking out over this are buying sub $300 books! many new buyers I guess? who hasn't seen an old holder.

So there's a clerical dismissal ? That's the world's worst screen shot. Is that using a phone? 
A non-substantive dismissal, if that's what happened, is a reset. No time for a hearing or even full service I'd wager. 
I need to jump on pacer so I don't get vertigo trying to read it this way.

Not a lawyer but I'm guessing from the term "shotgun pleading" that it needs to be rewritten in a more narrowly focused manner.  

I can’t access it from where I am but a kitchen sink or shotgun complaint is deemed too broad or too many repeated nested allegations when courts want you to use as few paragraphs as needed to save on time and costs.  So, yeah, it’s a clerical dismissal if that’s what this is, the “without prejudice” part is the key one. It just has to be reformatted, sharpened, and refiled.

What is the point of this case?  An employee was caught stealing and, over multiple interviews, was less than forthcoming.  If he confessed, why is this a civil case and not a criminal one?  Is there a question about his confession?  What can a civil court judge do?  Does the suit make it easier to get information?

just as an aside, i dont know who runs the facebook group for cgc fans but if you are in here, why you keep deleting posts if the subject is being talked about on the official forums?

There was just a post put up about this maybe 20 minutes ago. It just went poof.

It’s funny because you were way out of your depth from your first post about this stuff and all signs seem to indicate you are going to stay right there. But keep going, even a broken clock right exactly twice a day.

If you can or if you can't isn't the question. IF potential buyers think you can, nothing else will matter.

Any time you want to compare legal backgrounds, I’m your huckleberry. I’ve been at it longer than there’s been an CGC , just for a benchmark. And I won’t have to make cryptic three word posts with half-assed phone pics to pump my ego either. Someone way out of their depth would post about a case being dismissed, connoting finality, and leave out “without prejudice”..to, I don’t know, be provocative.  
 

But, really, enjoy not having the first clue who you’re talking to. 

Well tough guy, if you did have any sort of legal background, you would have already looked up this case on PACER. And then you would have looked at who is listed as counsel of record for CGC (Defendants of course have no counsel, duh)  And then you would’ve googled those 3 to see if they are smoking hot chicks. :x

And then you would have been disappointed because all three of them are…well they are not exactly the coldest beers in the fridge. Not even the coldest beers in the fridge in their litigation practice group for that matter. Which is weird because this firm is a front-line entertainment industry intellectual property firm (undoubtedly a 4zero outfit), and they tend to employ…you guessed it…smoking hot chicks, that happen to be smart as hell.

So don’t you try to tell me I don’t know how to do this. I know how to legal research the important stuff. :foryou:

I did look it up on pacer, yesterday, and downloaded full pdfs. 
I’m just not where I can look it up on a Friday night, chief. 
I didn’t say you didn’t know how to look things up, that was you talking to pretty much everyone else in this thread, so I was just wondering why everything you write drips with condescension. 
Sad about the lack of hot chicks though….we bond on that.
