Psaila V. Girardi Aka Erika Jayne Et Al

Revised Summary: The legal action initiated by Christopher Psaila implicates several parties, including Erika Girardi (also known by her stage name, Erika Jayne), her spouse Tom Girardi, the American Express Company (AMEX), and various members of the United States Secret Service. Psaila, a co-proprietor of the celebrity costume design company Marco Marco, asserts that he was unjustly prosecuted for wire fraud and identity theft. The conflict originated when charges made by Psaila to Erika Girardi's credit card account were contested by Girardi, her aides, and AMEX. Psaila insists that he had obtained consent to bill Girardi's card for costumes and services rendered for her performances since 2014, and that all transactions were approved and valid. Psaila's lawsuit alleges that the Girardis, AMEX, and the Secret Service colluded to unjustly prosecute him. He charges the Girardis with manipulating the Secret Service and leveraging their connections, specifically with Robert Savage, the Los Angeles Secret Service chief, to initiate a criminal investigation against him. AMEX is implicated for allegedly accepting Erika Girardi's unverified claims of unauthorized charges and reimbursing the Girardis without providing Psaila an opportunity to contest the allegations. The Secret Service, including Savage and other agents, are accused of neglecting to perform due diligence in verifying the Girardis' allegations and of fabricating false reports, which led to Psaila's indictment. Psaila further alleges that the Secret Service withheld evidence that could have influenced the case's outcome. The lawsuit demands compensation for the damage inflicted on Psaila's personal reputation, his stake in Marco Marco, and the purported infringements of his Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights. While the indictment against Psaila was ultimately dismissed, he asserts that he endured severe emotional trauma, financial loss, and physical harm during this period.

United States of America v. Robert Hunter Biden

Summary: Hunter Biden is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, accused of purchasing a Colt Cobra revolver in October 2018 while allegedly using illegal substances. Despite denying drug use on the necessary paperwork, if found guilty, he could face a maximum of 25 years in prison along with substantial fines. Biden's defense team contends that the charges are politically driven, asserting that Biden's temporary possession of an unloaded firearm did not constitute a public safety risk. They intend to contest the charges, leveraging an agreement with the prosecution, recent federal court decisions, and potential Second Amendment defenses. This case could potentially ignite wider discussions about Second Amendment rights, especially as the Supreme Court is poised to deliberate on a related issue concerning gun ownership for individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders. Opinions are divided among political and legislative figures, with some speculating that advocates of the Second Amendment might oppose the law that prohibits gun ownership for drug users.
