Perhaps Mr. Peters Better Call Saul...(Oh wait, that'll be his lawyer if there is a criminal fraud charge after all this...my bad)

And now much time do you think a firm would need to actually prepare whatever they need to prepare.
It's not like they can pick their team at 3pm on the 21st and have everything ready to go in a couple of hours, can they? Or is whatever extension they're bound to file just a quick couple of fields to stick into Docusign?
FUN FACT! My brother is getting sued. He was in an accident about a year ago, and while he caused it he wasn't "at-fault" nor cited. The other people he hit are suing for a crazy amount of cash. So, after he got served my brother did what any sensible adult would do and ignored it.
All the while, the attorney representing him (via the insurance company) is calling my mom trying to find him.
So, this lawyer has until...let's say the 28th to get everything buttoned up for the case. To do so, he needed my brother's statement written down by this week.
Moral of the story is - my brother is an idiot and Axanar's clock might have already struck midnight.
Well, if they just file a boilerplate answer--basically a straightforward denial of the allegations in the complaint--you don't need much prep time at all. But a motion to dismiss would be a lot trickier.
Actually, it's a pretty standard boilerplate filing required by law. Welcome to the way the legal system works.
If they file a denial of the allegations, what's likely to happen next?
Well that would conclude the "pleadings" stage of our litigation. Within short order I would expect the studios to file their motion for a preliminary injunction.
Now that Vulcan doesn't seem to be without emotions. What a scary Spock.
I haven't read all of the 4.700+ posts. What's the newest news?
You have to read all 4,700 posts or else you don't get the meaning of life, the universe and everything.
I like the pictures in this thread.
Does the thread have to be read in order?
I may have skipped a few posts around page 174.
Helluva nose bleed.
I wonder if Axanar was ever tempted to call one of its coffees raktajino? Or did they even realize that would cross a line?
All that means is you probably won't do very well on the test, later.
Not to worry. We're hard at work on the "Prelude to the Axanar Litigation BBS Thread" short film. All we need is to raise $100,000 and we can begin preproduction by 2017!
You need to add at least another zero. We want this to be high quality!
14-point is actually the standard in most courts I've seen. And don't get me started on the Supreme Court...
