This is the red bike. I got it from the original owner @ 6 months. It's old now (like me) but still does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds. 185 mph top speed (personally verified). It is a beast.

I ride every day. Have for almost 40 years (!) I don't have many vices. Well, one or two. But going fast on a bike is one.

Got an Insta360 camera today. Wanted to try creating some interesting stuff. Attempt 1 was a fail. Surprised by how shaky this was. No clue what that music is? Added automatically? Steep learning curve for a boomer. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Ya'll - I thought we agreed - truce. It's Friday. Nice words only, plz.

True fact - many years ago, I picked up a VERY aggressive stalker. Guy used to send me photos of my house (way before Google Street View). He also sent pics like this. Seriously. NOT kidding. But what does that have to do with your question? Well....

Correction: "semi-retired attorney" Don't worry - the time I spend is minimal. They troll me. I troll them. Then I go back to what I'm doing and forget they exist. Mentioned this before, but I have lawyer friends who sold everything and retired to a boat. This is the aft deck of their boat.

All I am saying is people need to stop acting like I'm afraid of the AZ bar. 100% false. The bar sometimes takes frivolous positions. It has done so against me in the past, and they lost. I'm sure they will lose this issue as well.

This is just a Google AI snapshot, but it explains the idea fairly well.

Not nearly enough room to type, so you get a different response. I assume the time limit was <2 minutes (like Twitter was) so I kept this short. Talking fast to beat the clock. No drugs involved.

Disagreeing with me NEVER means you're in a cult. Disagree all you want. I will always try to respond respectfully (and yes, I sometimes fail. Sorry). When I say "cult", I mean sick people who do this shit for laughs and money. They think karma will never bring consequences. They're wrong.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 10/10/2025

Having said that, I have NEVER "lied" (meaning I said something I KNEW was false). Omar LIED. Here it is in black and white. He said I only gave written confirmation I was out AFTER he filed his DQ motion. 100% LIE. I sent written confirmation I was out on 8/22. He filed the DQ on 8/25. 100% lie.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

TBH = Omar's writing is so bad, I can barely understand what he's asking for. He filed a Motion to Dismiss: gingraslaw.com/Omar473.pdf This seems like he's asking the court to toss everything (so, no hearing). But this writing....it's....um...

Ah, it was years ago. Looks like he wasn't charged w/ extortion. Just hacking/CFAA: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

Fun story - a few years ago, a hacker got into my client's website and demanded $90K not to release private info. The hacker also created accounts in my name and used them to threaten my client. I was able to help catch the kid. He was arrested and sent to prison. www.justice.gov/usao-az/pr/c...

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

Wow - you have the empty broken soul of a psychopath AND you're dumb? Quite the combo. Your parents must have been proud before they abandoned you. No wonder you hide your face. TL;DR There isn't going to be a hearing tomorrow (unless someone objects). sf.courts.ca.gov/divisions/un...

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

There was a time when responsible journalism required neutrality. Technically, that's still true. Can you report on a legal case? SURE. But if you take sides or engage in excessive misleading spin, that could cause you to lose the privilege. That would open you up to liability.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

OK, got a ruling from SF. Everyone lost. Omar's DQ motion: DENIED. My sanctions motion: DENIED (as moot), only because the judge wouldn't let me intervene. I can object to this, but probably won't. This is what I was going to offer Omar anyway. But FYI - my position: ZERO TOLERANCE for lies.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

This is what I'm referring to: youtube.com/watch?v=ju_M... Again, if the other side would shut up, I'll do the same. If they want to keep talking trash, I may respond, as needed. Honestly, I could care less about Omar. But if one side keeps pushing their narrative, people will also hear mine.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

After reading Omar's 473 motion (gingraslaw.com/Omar473.pdf), it's one of the most amateurish pieces of legal writing I've seen. Bad grammar. Bad logic. Bad law. Bad argument. Bad citation format. But anyone can talk trash. Here is what GOOD work product looks like: gingraslaw.com/Demurrer.pdf

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

PURELY for my own intellectual curiosity, I just read Omar's 473 motion. Wanted to know how he planned to get around the 6 month time limit of the rule. He twice (?) cited a 2019 case - Weiss v. Othman - that doesn't appear to exist. I'm concerned this cite was hallucinated by ChatGPT. There is...

100

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

I couldn't care less about being DQ'd. I already DQ'd myself. So why fight? Here's why - Omar submitted a proposed order that contained: A.) false statements, and B.) included findings of ethical breaches. If that order was signed, it would guarantee BIG trouble w/ the CA bar. So I pushed back.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

Couple things: 1.) My sanctions/intervention motion has been moved out of clerky jail, so it should be on the docket now (or soon). 2.) The clerk rejected my supporting declaration because of a technical prob. The clerk asked me to fix the prob & refile the declaration, which I'll do in a sec.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 08/10/2025

Minor correction - I mentioned a lawyer who was convicted of a federal crime in a case I worked on. My bad; the guy wasn't a lawyer. He just acted like one (he owned an SEO company that removed stuff from websites). www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/...

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 07/10/2025

The DQ opposition w/ supporting declaration is done. I will probably file it....uh....there's no rush. It's not due until tomorrow. Haven't finished my sanctions reply brief, and I'd prefer to file them together....so yeah, tomorrow for sure. Oh, and the boss voted "NO" on a video. Here's proof.

000

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

For you cult members lurking - barring unforseen delays, I'll be filing two pleadings in SF today. Since I'm correcting false info pushed by the other side, I will share links here as soon as they are filed. And maybe a video explainer? 🤔 Or maybe not. Aurora will decide.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 04/10/2025

Saturday. October. AZ forecast: 89°F. Nice.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

And for what it's worth, Woodnick did exactly the same thing in his pleadings. L never said she miscarried in her deposition. In fact, she flatly denied this. But Woodnick put that in quotes anyway.

000

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

Here's another example of me doing the same thing, in a brief that I'm still working on. You put things in quotes as a way of indicating something other than a direct quotation.

100

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

Is that the same as the "hand sized" thing? Absolutely not. Woodnick said there was deposition testimony that NEVER HAPPENED. When he did, he did NOT attach the transcript (because it would have showed he was lying). My motion includes Omar's actual words, and my interpretation. Totally different.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

OK, so I know Bsky isn't very active, and probably no one will see this, BUT....? Say it ain't so?! Only certain folks will get what this means... www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/Famil...

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

Also, it appears other folks have seen the brief I filed (it does include thumbnails). So it seems like a copy must be circulating somewhere.

000

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

Sorry - been at the hospital all day visiting a very sick friend. I'm still leaning against sharing the pleadings publicly. It wasn't helpful last time. It just helps the bottom-feeding trolls.

100

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 25/09/2025

I still don't intend to share the papers, but at least I have a conformed copy which means it's a formal part of the record. Also, I am not going to argue this in public. No comment about the merits unless the other side speaks first.

110

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 25/09/2025

Okay, finally got confirmation the CA court just accepted my filing. It should show up on the docket shortly.

210

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

As of 11:02 AM on 9.24, this is the status....no change. Like I said, I'm guessing the status will remain like this unless and until the judge looks at this. But I don't think that will happen until October. Maybe I'll call the clerk today and see what they say.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 22/09/2025

During college (90-94) and law school (97-00) was in the gym 3-4 days a week. 6'2" and 175 lbs. Never ripped, but in decent shape. Work and life got in the way. Weight hit 225 lbs. Felt fat. This year, I'm done. Back in the gym 7 days a week. Goals will be met. Not there yet, but working on it. 💪

9.21.25 - goal is getting arms back. Small progress is still progress.

David Gingras @davidgingras.bsky.social · 21/09/2025

Yeah, hospitals can be scary. This particular one is HUGE, which is good in the sense they have every kind of doctor available. But it also felt intimidating and a bit cold...like it was an entire world of very sick people. All I care is that my friend gets better soon. Fingers crossed 🤞

Sometimes it's hard to argue legal issues against non-lawyers. And sometimes it's not.

Admit it - we all make mistakes sometimes.

It's my first Bsky post. So glad to be out of the micro-blogging site that started it all (but which now sucks). I'll try to add value here, which is hard. For now, here's a link to an awesome new A&E series which happens to feature me (in Episode 4): play.aetv.com/shows/secret...
