    Curious... looks like the brief filed is only for the Fremont Cong. as the Defendant and Appellant. Am I reading that right? Two defendants were notified regarding failure to file timely on 3/11, but only one defendant is recorded today. Unless it's just recorded in a different way.

    Thank you 144000! Yes, I just found it on the net

    Documents are "filed" when received by court clerk's office. BUT:documents specified in rule 8.25(b)(3) are considered timely if mailed by priority or express mail or delivered to overnight carrier on or before due date;

    Without seeing the brief, your question cannot be answered. However, it is common for joint defendants to submit a joint brief, which is probably what has occurred in this case. That brief cost the WTBTS a lot of $$$$$

    Iam not going to ask exact amount but considering similar briefs, what are possible range of amount the Watchtower might have paid in this instance?

    Scott,

    It's hard to estimate without seeing the brief. My guess is that it's at least $50,000.

    I feel bad for Candace and Kathleen....I can't imagine thinking it's finally over to find the next morning it isn't. But....and please correct me if I'm wrong, the appeal is not a rehearing. It is a re-hash of the case to be sure everything followed the letter of the law, and nothing that could be deemed questionable went unattended thru the hearing.or 2nd trial. To the best of our knowledge, is that correct??
