It honestly doesn't matter if SFWA wins or not. This is all a pressure play against Pat. Beating SFWA would just be the blowjob on top of the hot fudge sundae.
It does matter doesn’t it? My assumption is that the lawyer bothered with that bullshit about the super lawyer and $6,000 because they’d go after Quasi for that if this subpoena gets quashed, the same way he did against Rick. He’s got balls of steel.

California has several supreme court cases allowing broad latitude to enforce judgements through third parties if it has the chance to lead to collection of the debt.

Actually now that I think about it, the auto award of attorney fees that Quasi got from his quash was because of all the kinsky stuff and isn’t necessarily true of any subpoena. I wonder if he’s actually at risk of having to pay for it if he doesn’t win this one.

Yes, it matters and especially for Quasi. What I'm saying is the big prize is the $40k that Patrick owes him. It's gonna be tough to get that without leverage. Getting SFWA dragged into this directly puts Patrick on SFWA's shitlist.

You don't think the SFWA board is having a crisis meeting right now?
A debtor's exam may also be performed on a third party as well.
Okay, this is what I was waiting for, the legal reasoning. Causing the sick fucks at the SFWA stress is always good, was just a little worried because I didn't know Quasi's legal chances.

The statute quasi used was compulsory. While the statute claimed by the SFWA is at the judges discretion. Quasi would need to have essentially no reason to issue a subpoena at all. Which is obviously not the case. The quash may have a small chance to succeed, but the sanctions are an extreme longshot.

(a) Except as specified in subdivision (c), in making an order pursuant to motion made under [URL='https://1.next.westlaw.com/Link/Document/FullText?findType=L&originatingContext=document&transitionType=DocumentItem&pubNum=1000201&refType=SP&originatingDoc=I9be2e9e01a0c11e99e829a5cf7a657e4&cite=CACPS1987']subdivision (c) of Section 1987[/URL] or under [URL='https://1.next.westlaw.com/Link/Document/FullText?findType=L&originatingContext=document&transitionType=DocumentItem&pubNum=1000201&refType=LQ&originatingDoc=I9be2e9e11a0c11e99e829a5cf7a657e4&cite=CACPS1987.1']Section 1987.1[/URL] , the court may in its discretion award the amount of the reasonable expenses incurred in making or opposing the motion, including reasonable attorney's fees, if the court finds the motion was made or opposed in bad faith or without substantial justification or that one or more of the requirements of the subpoena was oppressive.
(b)(1) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), absent exceptional circumstances, the court shall not impose sanctions on a subpoenaed person or the attorney of a subpoenaed person for failure to provide electronically stored information that has been lost, damaged, altered, or overwritten as the result of the routine, good faith operation of an electronic information system.

(2) This subdivision shall not be construed to alter any obligation to preserve discoverable information.

Shall award, vs may award.


Take a good look at the wording in section a. "Or opposing the motion" , meaning Quasi can use the very same statute to get attorneys fees from the SFWA.

was made or opposed in bad faith

Who do you think has a better argument? Do you think perhaps the results of the subpeona would show that the quash was made in bad faith?

If it’s a loan, it’s crucial information he is entitled to as it pertains to the judgment debtors financials.

If it’s a grant, it means the SFWA are liable to pay taxes on it as taxable expenditure. Taxable expenditures are uses of tax exempt funding that the org has to pay federal taxes on because they fall outside the remit of a charity.
