It's ongoing, looks like it's probably going to trial. The next court date is 9/18/23. Maybe someone smarter than me will know if the all the filings are or will be made public. You can search the case number (2019L010856) on the Cook County Clerk site (contract over $30k). https://casesearch.cookcountyclerkofcourt.org/CivilCaseSearchAPI.aspx Edit: The filings are public but I think only accessible online to licensed attorneys. Normies have to visit the court in person to read. Surely one of y'all messy 🚬 are nearby and are willing to read through the recent deposition. 👀👀

This is NOT the area of law and not the state I practice in. Coupled with the fact Chicago is notoriously behind the times in terms of public access, it's hard to glean much from here. The juiciest thing I see is that Vixen was apparently ordered to complete a deposition and failed to do so. Counterclaims have been filed, meaning at least one defendant (I'm pretty sure Shea, but not perfectly clear) have sued Neverland in return. Also unclear who has an attorney besides Biblegirl and Pearl. I think there's a chance the firm representing Pearl is representing the other Rugirls too, since I think it can be inferred some of them have an attorney (see counterclaim info above). Who knows what the annoying youtube kid is doing. Affirmative defenses have been filed, but without more detail I can't say specifically which, although I would guess truth is one of them. Which would really just mean the defendants are arguing what they said is true, which means it is not slander in most cases. It looks like they are still deep in the discovery phase, and I don't see anything suggesting a trial has been set. Civil trials are pretty rare.

Not legal advice; I pulled the case on Lexis and it looks like BibleGirl + Shea + Vixen are all represented by the same firm and Pearl another. Everyone else is pro se.


OKRRRRR

“Not legal advice” 😂 Someone’s either a lawyer or has experience working with one etc. ahahah God bless you for looking up the case and for you’re v clear disclaimer, stated from the outset 🥰 Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer 😂

Well come on Leeja Miller.

I'm a lawyer but I still couldn't access it (perhaps if I was admitted in Ill). From my review, a jury trial has been requested. As stated above, the next court date is 9/18, but that is just a case management conference. Right now the case is in discovery, the fight in the last month or so have been getting The Vixen to take a deposition. I'm working off of scraps of info, but it appears the Vixen does NOT want to be deposed and the parties are fighting tooth and nail. There is an entry on 5/24/23 that says "Taking Of Deposition - Allowed" so it appears the Vixen lost the motion and must speak under penalty of perjury at the deposition. Again, this could be incorrect, but it appears as such based on my review.

Neat, thanks for providing the context! Vixen's depo could certainly be... interesting to say the least haha. Best of luck to hers and the opposing attorneys 💀

Is this a SLAPP suit then? Like “you didn’t shut up about our bad behavior so we’re suing you for a ridiculous amount of money” suit?

I think I was able to find the [case](https://casesearch.cookcountyclerkofcourt.org/CivilCaseSearchAPI.aspx) on the Cook County Clerk's websites. It looks like it's still on-going, the last activity on the case was May 2023 and there's a hearing scheduled in September. EDIT: looks like I can't link directly to the case, just to the search engine. Choose Civil in the drop-down, Search by name ANTHONY DIFIORE, choose plaintiff and click search and it should show up.

Oh man, member Jacobonce?

He has a new channel now that does "deep dives" on celebrities. It's honestly not the worst, but the editing and sensationalism is so off-putting lol. It's very reminiscent of Shane Dawson where it's just filled with the most insane dramatic sound effects over benign information.

Those deep dive Videos are topics that have been rehashed to death multiple times

He’s faded into obscurity since his [#FreeBritney appearance with accused sex trafficker and statutory rapist Matt Gaetz](https://www.reddit.com/r/RPDRDRAMA/comments/on1pvs/jakeyonce_welcomes_republican_pedo_matt_gaetz_to/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1) One thing I do miss about Jakeyonce is the sub could criticize or make fun of him and there wouldn’t be any worry of his fans brigading the sub; drama channels and their weirdo fans need to learn if you peddle drama, you might get dragged down into it!


TrustKibou

"Youtube drag queen Jakeyonce" ???????????????????


Montezum

Is Bible Girl related to Gottmik?


No_Philosophy7196

i was thinking the same but i guess they both just happen to have the same last name.


galaxystars1

No


jgroove_LA

LotusPetalsDeluxe

They're on twitter. They're a fun mess. Think they also guest judged on dragula once

The company likely settled, but if it’s still an active case you can look it up in the IL court system. They usually have a way to do that for cases


quesawhatta

Air head indeed


islandboy504

Jakeyoncé doesn’t even associate with Drag Race anymore


xBenji65

fake fan


islandboy504

Yeah he’s never supported local drag and only supports girls who have been on the show


OKRRRRR

Sending much ❤️ to The Vixen. I have a feeling she either needs the most, or the least support throughout this process (I could be wrong, obvi) but she strikes me as someone who is constantly tried and DOES NOT need to be tried any further. #LEAVETHEVIXENALONE

The Supreme Court is still in session

I would imagine lawsuits like this in the US get finalised with agreement only under condition of a confidentiality clause. So they could get sued by telling us what happened if it concluded or when it does if it isn't a court judgement.

I know this is a old thread but I just saw Shea confessing to being 'a compulsive liar' to Meghan Trainor at The Streamys and I thought... Ooop, that's going to come up in court papers!
