Jack Faces Jail Over Bully
Take-Two Interactive lawyers have filed a motion to have Jack Thompson declared in contempt of court.
The motion requests that Judge Ronald Friendman, who sat on the hearing overseeing Thompson's failed attempt to have Bully banned, order the Floida lawyer to appear in court and defend himself against the contempt allegation.
If found in contempt, Thompson could face anything from fines, to censure or even jail time.
In his typical style, Thompson reacted with angry emails that he sent to the attorneys and judge and CCed to GamePolitics.
'You want to play hardball...? You want to try to throw me in jail? You have no idea what you are unleashing in doing this. You're at the brink..."
"If this court in any fashion proceeds toward issuing a show cause order, given its utter baselessness and the bad faith goo in which it slithers, then Thompson will add whatever judge should do so as a defendant in the aforementioned federal civil rights action..."
Man, I hope someone gets video of that hearing. HOT, HOT, HOT! Brian Crecente
