Justice, finally

He is definately mentally ill if he comes out and starts suing Bitcoin developers again. Deserves more time.

Suspended... So he's not actually going to prison unless he reoffends, right?

Honestly deserves worse for the time and money he has wasted, and people whose lives he has tried to ruin to further his fraud.

About time 😅

I'm not sure I understand. Is the prison suspended or is he suspended in some way? I think the guy is scum, but prison seems excessive, for a crime that didn't involve violence.

it means he has to pay, and if he does anything within 2 years he gets 12 months in the can, but he is not going in unless he does another dumb shit thing for 2 years

Oh I love that. Amazing

yeah, it's gotta be challenged, he should have to serve it, this isn't his first rodeo

I'm just not into using violence, unless in response to violence. Surely a court could punish him financially enough to make him radioactive to any potential legal councel

yeah, he should be charged for vexatious litigation

people who have convictions for abusing courts don't get their suits accepted, they can even get restraining orders from even entering the registry

Good.

yeah, he's on the line now, if he does any shit for 2 years in that jurisdiction he will get hammered next time plus a year

his enemies will be very keen to throw as much as possible next time if he tries some shit

the thing is that contempt is a charge FROM the court not from the victim of the vexatious litigation, they aren't weighing into the fact that he has wantonly abused the legal system for multiple cases for years

He was financially ruining and doxing developers through the court system all based on his lies. Dude deserves more prison time.

Any court or judge taking him seriously is what deserves the prison time

He exploited the system to ruin people. He is a clear piece of shit that did use violence by abusing court systems to ruin innocent people. Fuck Craig Wright

I'd be cautious about being overly punitive. Courts work by precedent. What may feel justified for one case could then be used to twist justice into injustice, merely via a set precedent.

Fair enough. I am blinded by my hate for the guy.

He's despicable.

i agree that abusing courts to hurt people should be considered an act of violence but it's not, it's just "vexing" lol

prison seems excessive ? you haven't been following it seems

*sigh...*

read.

anyone have an article that they can link on this guy that is an overview/summary? I'm out-of-the-loop on this one. 🤷‍♂️🙏

mylegacykut.medium.com has a list of articles written by Arthur van Pelt

mylegacykit.medium.com. sorry for typo lol

Bring back guillotine, maybe?

🖕

I would be hyped if he gets the prison ticket
