Jonny Carson's law firm...Or, was that Dewey Cheetum, and How?

The columnist I frequently post here from Townhall.com to mostly wide approval.

Carson's lawyer was Bombastic Bushkin.

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Huum. I guess political correctness is not a cause of action after all.

I bet they're hoping the IISD will settle for some amount (maybe $1 million or so). But now I'd say the lawyers for the school district have some more leverage.

Yes I have. You are thinking like an American though. People from that part of the world think living like that is normal.

On Thursday afternoon a Texas Judge dismissed a lawsuit filed against Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro by Mohammed Mohammed, the father of "clock boy" Ahmed Mohammed.

Claiming defamation, Mohammed filed the lawsuit in October 2015 after Shapiro made an appearance on The Kelly File questioning Ahmed's story and motives surrounding a clock he brought to school that looked like a bomb. Ahmed was detained by police for the "clock" and was suspended. His family, who has ties to foreign regimes sponsoring terrorism, and CAIR promptly accused the school of Islamophobia and racial profiling.

Today, they were defeated in their quest to silence those who exposed them as activists, terror sympathizers and politically motivated.

According to the ruling, Shapiro is entitled to attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses from Mohammed. Payment must made within 14 days.

The clock is running!

Another bad day for clock boy

note: this thread originally was about a lawsuit against Ben Shapiro. The lawsuit against the city was still ongoing. Until now .

Judge dismisses 'clock boy' lawsuit saying the school didn't discriminate against Ahmed Mohamed

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by Ahmed Mohamed's father, saying the family will not get a payout from the city of Irving, Texas or the school district

Mohamed filed a Federal lawsuit against the City of Irving, Texas and Irving Independent School District accusing them of violating his son's civil rights.

a judge dismissed the entire case. The lawsuit sought unspecified compensatory and punitive damages along with attorney fees.

The judge wrote: 'Plaintiff does not allege any facts from which this court can reasonably infer that any IISD employee intentionally discriminated against Ahmed Mohamed based on his race or religion.'

When the lawsuit was first filed in 2016, the district hit back at the Mohamed family's allegations saying Ahmed deliberately disobeyed his teacher by activating the clock despite her warning.

"In October 2015, the family decided to move to Qatar, where Mohamed plans to continue his education in the capital city Doha with a scholarship from the Qatar Foundation for Education and will attend Qatar Academy."

So this is just an effort by the family and their lawyers to suck as much out of "The Great Satan" as possible. They are laughing at us in Qatar (well known Garden of Eden-like Muslim utopia)
