Jim Gilchrist Loses In Court, Must Pay Defendants Attorney Fees http://www.nomoreinvasion.com/forum/index.php?topic=3382.msg19956

Last week Gilcrhist’s partner, Steve Eichler, had a nearly identical frivolous defamation lawsuit struck down. This week it was Jim Gilcrhist’s turn. The Attorney representing Barbara Coe, Dave Klehm, who filed his fee petition concurrently with his motion, was awarded $9,100 in attorneys’ fees!Attorney Daniel Lula representing the Minuteman Project Board Members, Deborah Courtney and Marvin Stewart will be filing a petition asking for a similar amount of money. This is a lot of money for Jim Gilchrist because he gets very little money in donations these days. By his own admission, he’s already burned through hundreds of thousands of dollars in fruitless litigation against Patriots.Chelene Nightingale of Save Our State, and I were served much later than the others so we have not yet had our day in court. We expect these frivolous lawsuits to be thrown out by the exact same Judges. Jim Gilchrist will again, pay our Attorney fees! Since I obtained free representation under my insurance coverage, this isn’t costing me a single dime.So Jim Gilchrist is paying for all these Attorney’s fee’s, including the expense of his own Attorney’s for filing these frivolous lawsuits. Anyone that has ever given Jim Gilchrist money in the past, needs to realize that it has all been pissed down the drain by a self indulgent con-man.The California court system really looks down on malicious prosecutions and the abuse of the court system. Jim Gilchrist lied in his defamation suits claiming the defendants, myself included, posted a photo of his drivers license on the Internet, along with threats of violence towards him. This is an outright lie, it has never happened to him, and he is unable to bring any evidence of it happening to the court. Idiot!

Quote News from:
the MINUTEMAN PROJECTFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Second Frivolous Defamation Suit Against Patriots Deborah Courtney, Marvin Stewart and Paul Sielski Stricken; Jim Gilchrist’s Suit Follows the Same Path As That Of His Associate Stephen EichlerSanta Ana, Calif. - July 29, 2008 -
Judge Randell Wilkinson of the Orange County Superior Court today struck Minuteman founder Jim Gilchrist’s defamation suit against Minutemen Deborah Courtney, Marvin Stewart and Paul Sielski as a "strategic lawsuit against public participation." Gilchrist’s suit against Barbara Coe, head of the California Coalition for Immigration Reform, was also stricken on the same basis.Marvin Stewart and Deborah Courtney are members of the board of directors of Minuteman Project, Inc., and Paul Sielski is executive director of the corporation. Both have been embroiled in a dispute with Gilchrist regarding alleged financial irregularities within this high-profile nonprofit corporation.On April 16, 2008, Gilchrist filed his defamation suit against these patriots, as well as Chelene Nightingale of Save Our State and Brook Young of Immigration Watchdog. Gilchrist claimed that the defendants had "defamed" him by speaking out about his transfer of the assets of the Minuteman Project corporation to a new corporation titled, "Jim Gilchrist’s Minuteman Project," without board knowledge or approval.Under the relevant law, defendants Stewart, Courtney and Sielski are entitled to an award of the attorneys’ fees and costs they incurred in defending themselves against Gilchrist’s meritless suit. Gilchrist has already been ordered by the Court to reimburse Ms. Coe over $9,100 in attorneys’ fees.Gilchrist’s frivolous suit against fellow anti-illegal immigration activists is the second in less than a week to be dismissed. Last week, Gilchrist’s associate, Stephen Eichler, suffered the same ruling from Judge Kirk Nakamura. Eichler had filed a virtually identical defamation suit against the same defendants.The vindictive and retributive behavior against fellow patriots by Gilchrist and Eichler is deeply disturbing to many in the anti-illegal immigration movement. Today’s ruling should be heeded by them as a warning to engage others on the issues, not attempt to use litigation to squelch freedom and dissent.The Minuteman Project was founded in early 2005 to secure America’s borders by means of civilian volunteer observers. Incorporated in mid-2005 as a Delaware nonprofit corporation, the Minuteman Project is governed by a board of directors under applicable law.

There are a lot of liars out there, so just because some California judge ruled that way doesn't mean crap as far as I am concerned. California judges (almost all liberal frauds) seem to rule in favor of bad guys (the law breakers themselves) more than victims all the time. Just look at what has happened with Jamiel's case, the Bologna case and many many more. I know for a fact that certain people have lied about things...so if I were some of the other Patriot's I would not necessarily believe all of the cat fight crap going on here. Be cautious is all I can say, be cautious! I see you are pretty good with Photoshop as well WatchDog.

Someone from ALIPAC put the straight jacket on Jim. The original photo is below. The kook, Jim Gilchrist, publicly embarrassed himself by wearing a bullet proof vest to a debate with Enrique Morones! No one has to lie about Gilchrist. He's done himself in with his own actions, but obviously you're not paying attention. After it's all over, these frivolous defamation lawsuits could cost Gilly around $50,000.

I hope things work out similarly for you, WD. I don't want to see you get saddled with enormous litigation costs.

I won't be. A free Attorney was provided for me by my insurance provider.

Attorneys fees are often only a part (albeit the big ones) of the costs of litigation. I don't know how extensive your policy is and whether or not it covers depositions (court reporters, printing fees, etc.).Anyway, the success of the SLAPP motion in the other suit is a good sign for your situation.

I just hope all of this discourse just ends and goes away. There has been way too much bickering among people who are all supposed to be working for the same cause. I'm just as guilty for taking sides without fully understanding whats behind various peoples motives. I'm done with my share of it and just plan on going back down to help watch for invaders and leave all the soap opera to the people that thrive on that kind of stuff. I want nothing to do with it anymore.

I do have to say one thing about this. Watchdog is correct about JG wearing the Kevlar vest. By wearing it OUTSIDE his suit shows me that its more for show and attention that for safety. Besides by showing that he was wearing one invites a head shot, and I don't mean by cameras. Photo Op

I agree he has the right to wear it. It would just be better if he used it under his clothing for safety's sake. I know some guys in SOS that wear plate carriers at rallies and have pepper spray carried in drop leg rigs. It's pretty clear that one might expect more violence at rallies than actually down at the border (at times that is).
