This is categorically false. From both a contractor and homeowner perspective.

His legal analysis is also not correct. I practice labor and employment defense (representing management) and we frequently settle cases where the company fired the employee for legitimate reasons.

Simple question - why?

I said there could be other reasons so I’m not sure how that is a lie

How about my analysis? I have never claimed to be a lawyer. Just an objective viewer

There are many factors - exposure, witnesses’ willingness to testify, cost of defense, etc.

Exposures and cost of defense is essentially what I said.

We obviously don’t have a witness problem here.

So how did I lie again?

Edit: I went back and reviewed my post. In my head I had grouped those together, but what I actually wrote was just the cost of the trial. Just wanted to be fair

The legal opinion that Paxton offered at midnight on a Saturday that prevented foreclosure sales outside.

I’ll try to be briefer.

In the trial (and you can watch it for yourself), they had a draft copy that referenced some federal opinion or law(can’t remember). They sent it to Paxton on a Friday night. I believe it was bangert. Anyway, Paxton told them it was the wrong answer. In order to creatively get to the answer he wanted, they removed the reference to this other law. If you watch the final cross by the defense, they were trying to get him to say it was an opinion. He refused and said that was the law. The defense never brought anyone else up to my recollection to refute that.

There was other witnesses that I think touched on it. The problem (as they stated it) was that Texas was trying to do everything in their power to open things back up, so this opinion was counter to it. Another witness (think the last one) said that Paxton had held an outdoor campaign event a month earlier, so this was counter to everything Texas was trying to do to open things back up

Watch it for yourself, and see what your takeaway was. That was mine

Sorry - the opening back up was in reference to Covid (which I didn’t include)
