In his civil case Robson has sued two of MJ’s companies – MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures. According to the law, a person can bring a childhood sexual abuse case against non perpetrator entities until their 26th birthday. However there is an exception. This exception allows lawsuit against third party entities (MJ Companies), if they knew or had a reason to know about the unlawful sexual conduct of their employee/  representative/ agent (MJ) and failed to take reasonable steps to prevent it. A Supreme Court ruling also says that “the entity defendant must have some ability to control the sexual abuse perpetrator”.  

Robson has been claiming this exception while Estate was arguing against it. After several rounds of revised complaints and demurrers, it was finally time for summary judgment.

On December 19th 2017, Judge Beckloff ruled in favor of MJ Estate and dismissed Robson’s lawsuit. Below you will find the ruling document and a discussion about what this means. Keep in mind that during both demurrer and summary judgment, the judge is required to treat Robson’s claims as true and only determine if there is a legal basis for the lawsuit. So the judge summarizing the allegations doesn’t mean they are actually true or the judge believes them.

Today - December 5^th, 2017- is the hearing date for the summary judgment motion filed by the MJ Estate to dismiss Robson’s case against MJ Companies. Since our last update, Robson continued his attempts to depose Chandler and Spence families and they continue to be uncooperative. Robson have filed an opposition to MJ Estate’s summary judgment motion and MJ Estate have filed a reply. For the time being, we don’t see much benefit in repeating the same arguments from both sides that we have seen over and over again at previous demurrers at Safechuck and Robson cases. (Although in the future we might explore some of the accompanying exhibits.)

While we wait for Judge Beckloff to rule on MJ Estate’s summary judgment motion, we wanted to post the last 2 pages of Estate’s reply to Robson’s opposition. These last pages perfectly explains the absurdity of these claims.

First we learn that Robson’s desperate attempts to discovery hasn’t uncovered anything new, it’s the same discredited allegations of the past. Furthermore every witness who claimed Michael did something wrong was laid off by Michael and sued Michael for money long before they made any allegations. These people were Blanca Francia, Charlie Michaels (whose story is refuted by Wade's own mother), Orietta Murdock, Donald Stark and Leroy Thomas (of Hayvenhurst 5).  All of these people were paid by tabloid media and in his deposition Donald Stark even said that Diane Dimond’s Hard Copy wanted them to fabricate stories. It’s very telling that even Sneddon did not use Michaels, Murdock and any of the Hayvenhurst 5. Yet now Wade is trying to build a case based on these people with serious credibility issues.
