But Twin Galaxies' own lawyer, David Tashroudian, faced misconduct claims of his own after he improperly contacted two witnesses in the case — prompting Superior Court Judge Wendy Chang, who's overseeing the case, to consider referring him to the State Bar for discipline.

I'm no lawyer, but this seems like small potatoes in comparison to Mitchell's actively fabricating evidence and lying under oath. Absolutely shameful that after years of litigation TG's case falls apart thanks to an idiot lawyer. Hope that lawyer gets paid nothing and Jobst's lawsuit goes better; Mitchell needs to see real consequences for the years of intimidation and lies.

Can't wait to see the Karl Jobst update video for this.

Hello legends...

Both sides really botched the discovery process.

They were scheduled for court this coming Thursday.

They, however, reached a settlement that is undisclosed.

We should start saying that kid that got the ~~Pac man~~ Tetris kill screen is the greatest arcade game player in history. Just to piss this weird old man with a dyed "beard" and cheap AF looking American flag tie.
