Vincent K. Tylor vs. Vermont Woods Studios - Round 2
Robert Krausankas (BuddhaPi):
generally speaking, when there is a settlement or a judgement, there is a confidentiality clause included, hence you get no response.
JLorimer:
I assumed that. I guess I was hoping at least one or two would just confirm, "yes, we did settle"
Robert Krausankas (BuddhaPi):
only way we're getting anything confirmed is if we see it in a docket search @ PACER, but we most likelt wouldn't get any details beyond that.
JLorimer:
What does a document on a docket search generally say if a case was settled out of court? If a case is dropped by the plaintiff and it is dismissed with prejudice is that generally considered a sign of a settlement?
Matthew Chan:
Legal ignorance by victims is epidemic. They are perfectly allowed to say they settled but not "allowed" to disclose the terms of settlement. To be fair, some victims do communicate behind the scenes (and a number of victims have confided in me over the years). But, no offense, they aren't going to communicate with a total stranger.
There is a lot of secrecy going on and I have been at the forefront of making known as much as possible the best I can. Unfortunately, some of the information I have cannot be revealed online without inadvertently giving away the identity of the person who provides me such information.
On behalf of the victims, they don't want any more grief but rest assured they are not happy about being silent but they are being cautious and they don't want any more energy or time suck. They also don't know who they can trust.
