The Trial: USA · Clients Can Be Assholes · 28 Mar 2025 podcast

I'm David Patrick Karikos, and on this week's episode of Apocalypse Now, as Donald Trump heads to Doha, we discuss Qatar, a small state at the center of a world increasingly ridden with faction and conflict. Listen to Apocalypse Now wherever you get your podcasts.

Thank you for having me, guys. You know, that's a great entrance right there.

So it's not a flat out dismissal. The judge dismissed five of the eight counts there. I mean, the judge, he pretty much slam dunked the attorney. He's pretty much saying, you realize that defendants are innocent until proven guilty. And he kind of slapped him down. You don't really want that as an attorney, especially in papers where anybody in the country or the world can read this.

So he really embarrassed the attorney for Little Rob, but he deserved to be embarrassed because if you can't figure that part out of the law, you probably shouldn't be practicing law. That really was stunning to me, in my opinion. But the facts of the case, reading it, It was very weak to begin with, and you could kind of tell that was a money grab.

This was about him not getting royalties from Diddy from a video that they did in 22, I want to say it was. It just didn't add up, you know? And if a judge throws it away, prior to it even getting to a trial. I don't think that is the case. The judge thinks it's the case. So no jury probably would have convicted Diddy on this.

So everybody saw, especially the judge, that this was really a frivolous lawsuit.

It was. But and also remember, Marjorie, this was not like the first lawsuit. This was towards the end of the lawsuit train, if you will, for Diddy. So, you know, this guy, he's just pretty much piling on whatever else he's heard and all these other allegations. But then the big thing is that he has a retribution where he wasn't paid for his royalties.

So I think this is kind of a payback for him to Diddy, although it didn't really turn out that way for him.

It could. It certainly could. Now, remember, some of these are put in different jurisdictions. So, you know, you can't ever say what one judge is going to do compared to another one. And every lawsuit's different. Every lawsuit has a different set of facts, even though they're going to have the same defendant and potentially the same allegations

But certain facts are going to be stronger in some of the lawsuits and weaker in others. So I wouldn't say that I'm going to be surprised if there's going to be other ones that are dismissed. However, there's a ton of lawsuits right now against Diddy. Having them all dismissed, I don't think that's realistic and I don't think that's going to happen.

No.

Well, number one, it's illegal. You're not allowed to record things from the jail.

So yeah, no issue there that Kanye and Diddy just violated the law. I don't know if this was something that was pre-planned by Diddy and Kanye and the people. It could have been. I have no idea. But it doesn't sound good. And You know, especially the source, you know, Kanye isn't the pillar of the community right now.

So I don't see that him being in Diddy's corner is going to help Diddy in any way. Maybe I'm wrong.

Definitely on Kanye. It depends on Diddy. Look, if he had no idea and it's proven that, then yeah, you can't blame Diddy because, hell, the guy's in prison. How's he going to do anything or record anything or know about it? But if he did know and he did authorize this, then yeah, he could have even more trouble. than what he's already in for.

I mean, the only way you're allowed to record conversations from jail is if you get permission from the federal government, from the federal jail to do so. If you don't have that, you're not allowed to do it. It's very simple. It's cut and dry. So I don't know if there's an investigation going on right now about this, but I wouldn't be surprised if there is.

And if I'm the government here, I'm going to be raising my hands up left and right saying, why is this happening? This should never have happened to begin with. If defense is going to try to use it for evidence or purposes, which I don't think they will, but let's just say they tried to, you know, government is going to object to it because this was not done through the proper channels.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You know, that's one of the first things you find out when you go. They give you a whole manual, pretty much, of what you can and cannot do. And phone calls are one of the highlights of their day. They don't get many highlights in federal prison if people don't realize that by now. So a phone call or visitation, that's a highlight.

And if you violate the conditions, you're not going to get them anymore. The jail can refuse to allow you to have that. And then you're really screwed. So the inmates, they take that stuff pretty seriously and they follow the rules. So not following the rules on this particular one and doing something illegal, potentially, you know, that's not good for Diddy.

So when you step down from a case, there's usually one of two reasons. Mainly, the first one is money. Not getting paid. Very simple. We talked about this at length before, I know. But I don't know how much Didi has paid these firms.
