More Bricks & Minifigs vs Reckless Ben insight.
Legal attorney
@legalbytesmedia released a great breakdown today detailing why Bricks & Minifigs' CEO Ammon McNeff made a complete disaster with his defamation claims.
Utah's anti-SLAPP law, originating from the Uniform Public Expression Protection Act, is a unique legal strategy that allows defendants to throw out retaliatory lawsuits meant to silence free speech on matters of public concern.
This helps Reckless Ben's situation because if the judge agrees that his investigative videos expose a matter of public interest, the entire defamation case freezes, and the corporation can be forced to pay every dime of his legal fees.
The 34 minute deep dive exposes how a major mistake by the corporate CEO, specifically going on a media PR tour and admitting on camera that Bryan Mansell was indeed "significantly underpaid," accidentally handed Ben’s attorney (finally) the exact admission needed to prove the videos were substantially true.
