sham litigation

Read a random definition: inevitable-misappropriation doctrine

A quick definition of sham litigation:

Sham litigation is when someone files a lawsuit that they don't really care about winning, but instead use it to harm or intimidate someone else. It's like pretending to play a game, but really just trying to scare or hurt someone.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Sham litigation is a legal action that is brought without a genuine belief in the merits of the case, but rather with the intention of harassing or harming the defendant. It is a frivolous lawsuit that is filed to delay or prevent competition or to gain an unfair advantage.

Example: A pharmaceutical company files a lawsuit against a generic drug manufacturer, claiming that their product infringes on their patent. However, the patent is about to expire, and the lawsuit is filed only to delay the launch of the generic drug. This is an example of sham litigation.

Explanation: The pharmaceutical company is not genuinely concerned about the patent infringement, but rather wants to prevent the generic drug from entering the market. The lawsuit is filed with the intention of delaying the launch of the generic drug, which would compete with the company's product. This is an example of sham litigation because it is a frivolous lawsuit that is filed to gain an unfair advantage.

babycat

14:57

babycat

14:59

babycat

14:59

it

babycat

15:00

but I don’t use dating apps so all my first dates are with people I’ve already met in some context, which it sounds like is your situation too

Dkk

15:00

I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.

Dkk

15:01

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better

babycat

@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?

Dkk

15:03

Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.

Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that

15:04

Ok another question, what do u tell the ppl u sleeping with already that ur going on dates

Dkk

15:05

The bigger issue is if I sleep with them will I have the emotional connection to finish cus it is harder for me to finish if I do not know the person.

@Rightfullytherlauren: If the person is clean or has a good vibe I will do it the first date

renard99

15:06

Yeah sorry I can't answer that Lauren, I don't sleep with anyone if I'm not already dating them

Dkk

15:06

@Rightfullytherlauren: This is like a stupid thing that only really hot guys and women have to think about. I have never had to think about this before. No answer.

Dkk

15:07

@bigroger100: No idea. Probably when they released last year unless they were supposed to release already.

@Rightfullytherlauren: I am apparently a hot guy or just a slut cause I have had this before. If it is a FWB then you gotta follow the rules on that like wrapping your tool and such but if it is a casual fuck/bootie call they do not need to know if you are trying to find love and what you are doing when you are busy

You just have to be smart and accept your choices, I know some people will believe a casual hook up or FWB is a regular exclusive thing. Communication is key if you are playing it that way but it is very dangerous to have multiple partners at the same time in a non-exclusive way

babycat

15:09

Yeah you should make it clear to them it's not exclusive

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

15:10

I have been on the receiving/hurt end thinking it was exclusive when I was just her human dildo and it makes you feel bad.

babycat

15:11

Aw poor Bulbasaur

Dkk

In all of these situations described, the point of failure happened way before the emotional reality set in.

babycat

15:11

I'm like extremely monogamous at heart

babycat

15:12

I'm never dating or fucking more than one person at a time

babycat

15:12

But one time this guy I'd been dating for a little bit had a tinder notification come up on his phone and I flipped my shit lol

1a2b3c4d26z

15:12

Yea but isn't that just cheating

1a2b3c4d26z

15:12

If you're already dating

babycat

15:13

I mean like casual dating without a label

My wife and I date girls together but we don't fuck unless it is going to be exclusive but having hot chick friends you can flirt with is great.
