Another group of very informative thoughts and interesting posts over on another board at the_y@h@@ boards by

So there are are lot of comments regarding Neuro’s recent, and successful, requests for an “extension of deadlines.”
These deadlines you’re referring to have NOTHING to do with the Court Ordered attempts at Mediation. NOTHING!!
If you read the documents, it’s pretty clear the deadlines being referred to are with regard to the lawsuit filed by Relief against Neuro, and Dr. Javitt personally. Just because you’re involved in mediation doesn’t mean your legal team stops work around the pending lawsuit(s).
The deadline extensions specifically refer to Motions #1 and #2 before the Supreme Court of New York. So what are those motions? I’m glad you asked!
Motion #1 is a motion to Strike the allegations made by Relief in its Complaint against Dr. Javitt for a) sabotage, b) apparent nepotism, and c) that Dr. Javitt issued a “series of misleading statements to the press to portray himself as the inventor of the idea of using Aviptadil to treat COVID-19.”
Motion #2 is a Notice of Motion to Dismiss the complaint against Dr. Javitt due to a lack of personal jurisdiction, or on the merits.
The Judge ordered documents relating to these Motions to be submitted to the Court by certain dates. Neuro’s attorneys filed deadline extension requests in order to have more time to gather and submit documentation in support of Motions #1 and #2. The Judge agreed, and granted Neuro’s legal team additional time to submit the information. They were given one additional week.
Again…this has NOTHING to do with the Mediation efforts that are purportedly underway. Neither side will reveal ANYTHING about Mediation until BOTH sides have either reconciled one way or another, OR determined that efforts toward Mediation are fruitless.
It’s as simple as that!

@G-Money Thanks, and I agree with you. Both motions are designed to sever / relieve Dr. Javitt of all personal liability with regard to his actions and comments. I’m hopeful both motions fail, because like you, I believe if he can’t hide behind LLC, he will clearly not want to face a jury for any number of reasons, most especially due to his credibility issues.

@BBB Thanks very much, and I couldn’t agree more with your assessment.

Nice synopsis. If either motion is granted then jj can hind behind llc if this goes to trial. Hopefully the motions are denied. He is FAR less likely to take his chances with a jury trial if he is personally liable. Sadly he will have to be ordered by a court to behave honorably.
