In a March 26 report filed in a San Antonio federal court, Magistrate Judge Henry Bemporad recommended that federal Judge Orlando Garcia, overseeing the case, deny Stephen Findeisen’s bid to toss Paul’s lawsuit, as Findeisen presented his claims more akin to facts than “mere opinion.”“At the pleading stage, Plaintiff [Paul] has sufficiently alleged that the statements at issue in this case are reasonably capable of defamatory meaning and are not unactionable opinions,” Bemporad wrote.“The Court should reject Defendants’ contention that context renders Findeisen’s statements nondefamatory,” he added.
Source: CryptoZooPaul claimed Findeisen called him “a serial scammer” and that CryptoZoo was a “scam” and a “massive con,” which Paul denied. Findeisen asked the court for an early judgment last month, claiming his statements were made to be taken as opinions and his videos had disclaimers in the description section saying as such.
Influencer Logan Paul should be allowed to continue a lawsuit accusing the YouTuber known as “Coffeezilla” of making defamatory remarks about Paul’s failed CryptoZoo project, a Texas magistrate judge said.
