I actually read it three times to make sure I was reading it correctly before I posted those extracts
Here’s the original story, for ease of reference https://twitter.com/dave1agar/status/1226919293276823554?s=21 https://twitter.com/dave1agar/status/1226919293276823554
Statement of claim here, if you’re interested https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/320cv981.pdf
As a lawyer myself, I can’t even begin to express my anger that this is an actual statement of claimed filed by actual lawyers in an actual court
(I’m so angry I can’t even type, should be “statement of claim”, not “claimed”
)
)
On a far less serious note, the proposed Masai Ujiri warnings in the responses and RTs to this thread are fantastic. I’ll RT them as I see them
The law firm representing the cop sounds specializes in personal injury lawsuits in California. https://www.mastagni.com/
Just to demonstrate the level of ridiculousness of these allegation, Masai Ujiri is currently accompanying PM Trudeau on a trip to number of African countries https://twitter.com/glen_mcgregor/status/1226527089064644608?s=21
Also: Raptors fans need “The Danger Of Masai Ujiri” t-shirts to wear for the playoffs (along with our scarfs)
So this blew up! I’m completely behind on the comments to this thread but will try and respond as I can.

Lol at the trolls who don’t believe I’m a lawyer
In any event, you certainly don’t have to be a lawyer to realize how ridiculous this lawsuit is

Here’s some more background on the story, since this has now just gone beyond just Raptors twitter and people have asked https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/basketball/article-raptors-president-masai-ujiri-wont-face-criminal-charges-over-dispute/
And for non-Canadians (and/or non-sports fans), to give you an idea how popular Ujiri is in toronto https://twitter.com/piptal/status/1186792519423713288?s=21 https://twitter.com/piptal/status/1186792519423713288

Can’t resist adding this to “the danger of Masai Ujiri” thread. These people in uniform seem happy to see him lol https://twitter.com/raptors/status/1227370022894538754?s=21 https://twitter.com/Raptors/status/1227370022894538754
I just posted this elsewhere, but it seems to belong here https://twitter.com/piptal/status/1227697525248884736?s=21
Update on the Masai Ujiri lawsuit. I think Masai and the Raptors have the better lawyers lol
(Also, the initial lawsuit was filed in early February? It seems much longer ago than that)

Masai Ujiri’s legal team have countersued. Great thread here summarizing their allegations against the deputy https://twitter.com/darrenheitner/status/1296038286234980352?s=21 https://twitter.com/darrenheitner/status/1296038286234980352
