Putting the Webster dictionary of what a door is in a legal document is still goofy lol 

That was only a small part of it, not that I see what is goofy about it. How would you have addressed the matter?

[Blackstar]

None of us here is an attorney, I believe, so we can't really evaluate the legal arguments each side has made that are based on precedents (previous court cases) and the extent to which these precedents are relevant to the current case.

Apparently there is a precedent about the outside gate (of a building, compound or property) vs. the door of a residence that Axl's lawyers rely upon, but we can't really say whether it actually supports their argument regarding this case.

Never thought we'd be  discussing a driveway gate vs the door of a residence. LoL

I'm not a lawyer, I have no idea lol. I just thought copy and pasting the definition of a door was silly, like something a kid would do and think it's a big gotcha. Just not something I'd expect to see in a legal document 

[Blackstar]

The outcome of the motion (the part concerning the service) won't really amount to much, because even if the judge agrees with Axl's lawyers that the documents were not served properly, she will probably grant extended time for Kennedy's lawyers to serve it. Or, if the judge denies the part of the motion about the service but grants the part of the motion about the dismissal of some of the causes of action, Kennedy's lawyers will be able to file an amended complaint (that will replace the original one) and serve that.

So, maybe the non-service part of the motion is just lawyer tactics to achieve something else.

Don't let them lawyers listen to "Knocking on Heaven's Door"   Cause according to the Bible that thing is also a gate...

The last traced date of residence in Malibu is January 2020. There is a later date (April 2020) of residence in Montana but there are traces only for that one day.

Vanessa owns a home in Montana. Axl still lives in Malibu

Yes, but for the purpose of this lawsuit, he doesn't.

Thought the Montana house was a gift from Axl to Beta.

He lives in Malibu but as you can see when you scroll back through this thread or view the court files, the people attempting to serve him the papers were told by staff that Axl is not the resident but Beta. And it's on file that Malibu is not his primary residence.

A while back I came across a page (not related to the case though, it was a genealogy page) where they had listed three residence addresses for him. Malibu, Thousand Oaks, and one on Sunset. Don't know what the source of this page is though. I thought the Thousand Oaks house was Beta's and her family's main residence but I could imagine that they may use this for the court case too, since they denied that Malibu is his main residence. But what do we know, I guess we'll see how the drama (spying on Axl, door definitions... LOL) keeps unfolding.

I think Thousand Oaks is just one of the "business addresses" (basically the address of managing company that manages Axl's business affairs - Axl is just one of their clients) that appeared in registrations for Axl's companies and that's why all these pages have it.

EDIT: I see there are two Thousand Oaks addresses in the skip tracing document, one is the business address and the other looks to be a house. In various database it looks like the resident of the house is Beta's other son.

Found that page again. Here's a screenshot of the "residences"

This Thousand Oaks address is the business address. The Sunset Blvd one is an old business address.

Kennedy's lawyers have filed the opposition to Axl's motion:

or

https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/fbem/DocumentDisplayServlet?documentId=A_PLUS_Y556T3YllOkkHY0nmZ0g==&system=prod

It is accompanied by the affidavits or service and information about Axl's companies and business addresses (I suppose to show that they made all efforts to trace Axl's addresses).

Civil law presiding over this type of case is murky water. Much lower burden of proof and can often be decided without a jury. I think this will be settled out of court. Axl could be totally innocent and branded a rapist and forced to pay $100 Million or even more. The recent Trump/Jean Carroll case has set something of a financial precedent for a proven verdict so these lawsuits have flooded in since.

Axl says he's not guilty and I believe him, but you wonder if a jury and/or judge will find him to be a credible witness/defendant given his reputation and past (fair or not).

If Axl is forced to pay 100 Million, that's roughly HALF his net worth! 🥶😱😵‍💫😳

For the time being, Axl doesn't seem willing to settle. I think he'll first try every way to get it dismissed before it gets to trial. A lot will depend, if it goes all the way through the fact discovery stage, on whether there will be other witnesses besides Sheila Kennedy and Axl. For example, Riki Racthman is a key witness so it will be crucial whether he testifies and what he will say.

[Blackstar]

There is a new stipulation document between the lawyers that extends Axl's time to file a reply to Sheila Kennedy's opposition to May 22.

[Karice]

Didn't Axl already file some kind of opposition, something like,"I want Sheila Kennedy to stop harassing me and in fact, I want her to pay me damages for Libel and Slander? 🤔

No clue where this ends, it's turning into a cat & mouse game with both lawyers doing what they're paid to, which is do annoying lawyer things. I'm following the case, with big thanks again to @Blackstar, but I have to admit I still have absolutely no idea what to think about it.

Your Avatar perfectly matches your thoughts on the Sheila Kennedy and Axl Rose Lawsuit! 🤭💡🤔

Wow, thanks for the update. 💡🤔 I skimmed it and Axl's Lawyers were like,"Miss Kennedy has made contradictory statements. She has claimed that she willingly had sex with Axl and then  she said he raped her against her will and the sex was not consensual. She is a wishy washy person who cannot be trusted." 💡

Just seems like legal bullshit on the improper service.  I wouldn't say justice had been served by throwing a case out for that.  Seems to me, even though improper, Axl's lawyers are well aware of what that summons, lawsuit is all about.  I know, the law isn't about what's right or wrong, fair or unfair, it's about following rules and procedures.  Just kind of funny the leader of a band like GNR is going to hide behind rules and regs.  I would expect more of "yeah I fucking got it and I'm coming after your ass for lying!"    But maybe this is just a minor thing that's part of the bigger picture that says I'm proving you wrong on every fucking point and I am all over your ass.

It has been reported that Axl asked Sheila to pay him for damages! LMAO! 😀
