This is open threats and intended misuse of courts. You can't start a lawsuit just to obtain somebody's private information in order to (break laws and) dox people. That's a crime - perhaps even a federal crime.
I recommend everyone on his list file emotional damages, threats, threats conveyed by digital/electronic means, harassment, and intimidation charges.
First, you don't use warrants, you use subpoenas for non-parties and discovery requests for parties.
Second, abuse of process is illegal and actionable. That's when a court process is used for a purpose other than its intended purpose. Whether the activity is an abuse of process or privileged litigation activity turns on many factors, his tweet does not help him.
Third, attorneys can also be liable for abuse of process, so he has to find one willing to take it on. If he can't, he can't issue a subpoena or discovery, only the court or an attorney can, so he has to get the court to issue each.
There's also motions to quash subpoenas. Just because someone requests something doesn't mean they get it. You can object to the subpoena via motion to quash. You can also just object in the response and make him file a motion to compel response. The grounds for objections and quashing are many. Discovery can be similarly limited or objected to.
Finally, he's being way dramatic and doesn't know the proper term. This is typically a sign that someone is full of shit and can be ignored.
Anyone who litigates self represented in anything other than small claims is a fool. Procedure alone with fuck them. Decorum and when to make argument will also.
Not necessarily. What if he had a legitimate claim?
It could be evidence that the requests are illegitimate though and being used to harass, etc.. It's the courts call.
I don't get the jail time threat. Not responding to civil process has to be dealt with via civil contempt process. Compelling responses must first be dealt with via monetary sanctions, it's only after the party refuses to respond to multiple, escalating orders on the same discovery / subpoena that a court can jail. This is constitutional.
Also it's about $350-500 a pop for process service of a single document. More if your target is a dangerous weirdo or lives out in Dirtfuck-Nowhere National Forest (i.e. half the fedi).
And if, say, those papers get served incorrectly, or never reach their intended destination, then did you ever really send them?
Here in California, we have mandatory case management conferences, the first of which is roughly 120 days after filing and continuing every 60 to 90 days until trial is set. They're like a cattle call. There will be 10 to 20 cases called in an hour. Watching the pro pers while I'm waiting for my case to be called is always entertaining.
@Snidely_Whiplash@KK954@ACL9000 I'm not sure that "attempting to intimidate a literal horde of anons, including people like 'Cumberland Gap Face' @Azzmador, with 'liferuin' in this shit economy while being a 100% known facefag" is a great idea and a path to victory for the man
