Maximum Overkill 2,125 Posted June 28 2 hours ago, TimHauck said: Is Elio woke? The term "Papa John's Lesbian" is not a recognized or common phrase. It appears to be a misunderstanding or a conflation of two separate concepts. Papa John's is a pizza restaurant chain, and the term "Lesbian" refers to a sexual orientation, specifically a woman who is attracted to other women. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was also seen hanging out with an activist investor who is slowly trying to gain some control over Disney via board seats. Maybe Musk will team up with this guy and buy Disney.

They're making a movie. Disney tried multiple times to get the case tossed and lost. So they were either going to trial where they would have lost or settling. She held the cards. So the settlement was more than 75k OR it included guaranteed future work, but your suggestion that it was 20k is laughable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One or both sides may be “happy” with the settlement, but settling usually means both sides give in a little bit compared to what they wanted originally. And of course we don’t know the specifics here. And no one was stopping her from having a career. She did a movie on the Daily Wire that reportedly grossed $804.

Ron_Artest 1,696 Posted August 8 Here is the legal doc: https://www.schaerr-jaffe.com/wp-content/uploads/Carano-v.-The-Walt-Disney-Co.-Complaint.pdf PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Carano prays for relief as follows: 1. Preliminary and permanent injunctive relief requiring Defendants to reinstate Carano to her prior position with no loss of pay or benefits; 2. A judgment declaring that Defendants’ termination of Carano’s employment was unlawful and in violation of California law; 3. Compensatory damages, including but not limited to loss of pay from the date of termination to the date of reinstatement, in an amount to be determined at trial, but exceeding $75,000; 4. Compensatory damages for loss of future employment, including but not limited to the promised role in Rangers of the New Republic, in an amount to be determined at trial; 5. Emotional distress damages, in an amount to be determined at trial; 6. Punitive damages, in an amount to be determined at trial; 7. Reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs; and 8.

As Artest posted, the request was for an amount to be determined at trial. It's not uncommon in large civil cases for the wording to be similar to that, and for the judgment to be large. What's pathetic is you actually thinking she sued for ONLY 75k while being bankrolled by Elon Musk.

nobody 2,719 Posted August 8 Court doc clearly says compensation based on lost wages to be determined but exceeding $75k. Anyone thinks she settled for $75k or less is being naive. I mean unless she's claiming she only lost 75k in wages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
