[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think part of the strategy here is to make a showy motion for sanctions against Freedman in part to beg the question: if the VanZan lawsuit was such a miscarriage of justice, why haven't they filed for sanctions against Lively and Manatt? By filing this motion, they can now respond to accusations of wrongdoing on VanZan with "so file for sanctions."[/quote]

Maybe. It's complicated by the fact that it's a different court. IMO, they likely made misrepresentations in that court to get the subpoena, which ultimately formed the basis of the federal lawsuit, but not sure that gives Liman the right to sanction them for what was done in another court. But certainly, it's weird that Freedman brings Vanzan up in all of these sideways arguments (including crime-fraud to rebut a motion to compel) without really addressing it directly. At least, he could stop complaining that it hasn't been turned over, and file a motion to compel (unless he's being shifty and never even asked for it just so he could continue to complain that he never got it).

I don't think there will be a satisfactory conclusion to this for either side.
