Have to file a special appearance if you're going to challenge jurisdiction, and have to do that before you raise any other issue. Dude is going to get defaulted.

Depending on the particulars of who's at fault in the messed up police report, the daughter could get away with it even without all the stupid sovcit bullshit. As comedian Mike Birbiglia points out, police reports are like homework for cops, and those guys are often lazy and hate homework. After he got hit by a drunk driver the police report had a bunch of errors basically saying he hit his own car and the department refused to correct it.

Actually a pretty funny and engaging story if you've got 15 mins

He's a great storyteller. One of his early bits details his issues with sleepwalking.

So.... She's trying to make things worse for her daughter.

That truck looks like it’s a long way from “totaled”.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Totaled just means repairs will cost as much as the car is worth. If the frame is bent, that would probably do it.

Yeah and it works the other way sometimes too. My wife’s car had one of those flatbed delivery trucks back into her car and just peel the whole driver’s side open like a can opener. I mean it literally looked like wolverine took a single claw down the entire side. I thought for sure they’d total it. But because it had so few miles on it even though it was still an 8 year old car they just fixed it because it was worth more than the 75% cost of repairs limit. I think the total repair bill was like 10k.

Okay. That makes sense. Thanks!

There's also the airbags, seatbelt pretensioners, the belts themselves, a huge amount of stuff that needs to be swapped out after a crash.

(she's ok)

And how's the driver of the jeep holding up? To shreds you say...

Pretty easy, I don't know what could go wrong, their reasoning is airtight... in that any ability to reason they had has suffocated and is fucking dead.

It's a slam dunk case. Judges are famous for being easily swayed by frivolous semantic arguments from non-lawyers. It's kind of like that old sci-fi trope of AIs being defeated when the hero states a logical paradox.
