When there are legal ways to subvert justice, it cannot reasonably be referred to as a justice system.

Of course, I should point out that, as far as I can tell, the only real legal route to subverting justice that took place here was Giuffre not filing a criminal case when she had the chance. And, as satisfying as it would have been to send him to jail, this was only ever a civil case.

Where in your source does it say the defense MUST offer a settlement? It doesn't. Now think this through very carefully..... Why would they? Because they're good guys? Because they feel bad? Because they want you to be happy? .... AS A RULE - any offer they do make wíll be a pittance - IF they do make an offer. It' s called "go away and fuck off money". If you have a real case - you are LESS likely to get an offer. They don' t want to pay and the odds are in their favor. It varies by state - but here in Michigan your odds of winning as a plaintiff are pretty dismal. If you manage to win at trial - the defense will go for appeal - and half of the cases get thrown out without trial in favor of the defense. Plus - why offer money? You might die, go to prison - or just plain give up. They play the odds. (February 16, 2022 at 9:06 am)onlinebiker Wrote:(February 16, 2022 at 5:12 am)BrianSoddingBoru4 Wrote: You have a point.

Post #4 Quote: In point of fact, it is the defendant who almost always makes the offer of a settlement. Unquote.

But when it is, the offer ALMOST always comes from the defendant. Boru
