That’s good news. Sorry that I’m probably asking for something that’s contained in the thread somewhere, but can you direct me to where that verbiage in the act is located?

Is it really not mentioned in the countersuit? For some reason I thought this was one of their major contentions. At least it seemed to be coming out of last week’s meeting. But maybe I haven’t been paying close enough attention.

But might they win on it? What would the typical ruling/remedy be? Do they even have standing to essentially say “please nullify this arrangement we entered into because we contend that we didn’t follow the rules”? I know it’s not the current members of the board that would have screwed up...

https://.com/2023/04/central-florida-tourism-oversight-district-boards-lawyer-says-disneys-reedy-creek-agreement-is-illegal/ Central Florida attorney Jacob Schumer told Orlando Sentinel that voiding the development agreement would impair a contract, putting the state on shaky legal ground...

🤷‍♂️ I’m not in that camp but it doesn’t seem difficult to grasp. You can disagree with someone without thinking they deserve to be persecuted by the government.

I’m 100% in agreement Just commenting on that side discussion about whether or not it was for show.

100% their little announcement about the Parental Rights bill was for show. It was all to try to put out the flames with their employees who were upset and nothing more.

I think the conversations cited in the book will help the discovery process for sure, but I still think it’s pretty important to get some smoking gun emails/texts/etc

I hope they are being deleted. Some of them will be found, regardless. And that will just look even worse for him.

I agree with everything you said, but I’m not sure that statements made by a politician on the campaign trail are going to hold that much water in proving intent. Let’s say RCID was going to be dismantled anyway (I know that it wasn’t, but just as a hypothetical) and that it was already set to...

Winning or losing isn’t the biggest problem for DeSantis. It’s the discovery process.

The irony was not lost on me either 😂 But also it’s just pointless and embarrassing language. It doesn’t help the case at all.

This is just embarrassing language to use in an official legal filing, as well.

Did they? Or did they just have more internal pressure from their employees to at least say something.

Waiting until after the bill has already been passed, putting out an extremely short and vague statement attributed to soneone nobody knows of, and doing absolutely nothing else is about as tepid as it gets.

I have to strongly disagree. Disney’s tepid response to the Parental Rights bill would have hardly been heard about or cared about by the vast majority of Americans. It had no power to alienate much of anyone, let alone a portion of a political party, without being blown out of proportion by a...

It’s funny, I was watching it and thinking “wow, for the first time it seems like someone told him he actually needs to start being careful about what he says”

Universal has their own big projects working, they don’t want to be the next target.

Maybe. I don’t like to make assumptions like that. You don’t know how informed he was/is about every topic, or which matters are important to him. There are a lot of people that were buying the hype about DeSantis being a more palatable alternative to Trump before they knew much about him...

So what is the board even suing Disney for, anyway? They already declared the contract void. Don’t they need to like… wait for Disney to do something that they feel Disney can’t do first?
