So truth is an ultimate defense to defamation.

And that's what she's standing on, that she has the truth.

She can prove it.

You know, she's got some gumption.

She's not afraid.

Her lawyers are not afraid.

They're sticking with her and pushing forward on this case.

And sometimes it's a money grab either way, right?

Like when you have a criminal case that you lost as a victim, I know you're not technically a party, but, and you still go forward on a civil litigation.

you can still get a settlement.

Often that's what would happen.

You wouldn't even go to trial.

And from her perspective too, if she just needed money and she's going to file this lawsuit and just get some money out of it, fine.

It doesn't seem like that's what it is.

And if this ends in a settlement, I'm going to assume it was a huge amount of money.

They have come out and said publicly that they are going to file defamation cases, but the way it works in these civil courts is she files a complaint, they file their motions to dismiss first, and then if they can't dismiss her lawsuit, then they would file their answer and their counterclaims.

So that's coming in due time.

I would expect that it is going to come, though.

What's really interesting is, you know, you mentioned what you would do if you were a proctor.

You put them on the stand, you just eat it, right?
