Apparently, not even a reality ‘star‘/entrepreneur is above the law. When you’re ordered to pay over $22,000 in attorney fees and fail to do so, a bench warrant might be issued. When you finally do make good on your debt, you really can’t pick and choose who you’re going to pay it to either. It will eventually catch up to you! Unfortunately, it also appears that the legal system does not have preferred return customer policy. For example, if you are, once again ordered to pay at or around $40,000 in attorney fees, trying to have the judge disqualified probably wont work. Gosh…in the eyes of the law, you they really are no different than us ‘plain folk.’ That’s the reality.

Well, well, well…looks like someone filed an appeal. That was pretty much a given in my book…the motion to have the judge disqualified however, surprised me. For 1/100th of a second.

In other news…Most Wanted Deadbeats is reporting that Gretchen Rossi’s costar Prince Charming boyfriend, Slade Smiley now owes $138,857.64 in child support for his son, Grayson, who was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in 2006. Nice.

Stay tuned…

Judge Gregory Munoz of Orange County Superior Court determined Wednesday that Rossi, 33, must pay Photoglou the $40K, since the judge threw out the defamation part of her lawsuit against him, and Photoglou spent about $85,000 defending himself.

Photoglou and his attorney, Bryan J. Freedman, had filed an Anti-SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Policy) motion in Rossi’s case against him, arguing that Photoglou had the freedom of speech rights to say he was once her boyfriend. The Anti-SLAPP motion prevailed….

The Orange County Register has the complete, story followed by a little poll. Take a second or two and add your .02¢

Should Gretchen Rossi be forced to pay Jay Photoglou’s attorney’s fees?

Yes, I agree with the judge.

No, Jay should get a life.

Who cares?

So if you happen to read a tweet that says something to the effect of ‘OMG, who believes that crap?’ You can say ‘I do, that’s who.’

….…again!

Here’s hoping Gretchen Rossi’s pockets are deeper than the plots on The Real Housewives of Orange County.

The litigious homemaker was ordered today to fork over another $40,799 in legal fees for the onetime beau she tried to sue for defamation but is now just suing for assault, battery and other alleged offenses…

Seriously, next year…I say that every year but this time I totally mean it. Next year I am going to reacquaint myself with the Christmas spirit. I am going to deck the halls, jingle my bells…I’m even going to…get a Christmas tree. I love everything about Christmas, the baking, the shopping, decorating, having family together, the smells, the sights, peace, love & joy, etc… Lately? Not so much. I remember standing in a line when I was a kid, I’m not sure where it was, but I remember I was so happy to be there I could barely contain myself. Then I saw her, the lady behind us. As soon as I smiled at her she gave me the meanest look ever and made me cry, ruined my whole day. Bitch! That’s kinda how I’ve been these past few years, a party pooper, sucking the joy out of the air. I’ve even secretly wished Frosty would melt. I know.

————————-

Note the picture of the Christmas tree. Not mine. I have to borrow someone else’s tree to take pictures of, because it would just be too Christmas spirity to have one of my own! On a side note, that really is my mom in the other picture. (I didn’t borrow her!) (just sayin’) Also note, for someone who would rather be sucking joy out of the air, I do look pretty flippin joyful don’t I? Well there was a lot of great food. I did get some amazing gifts. And then…

——————————-

OMG! I wasn’t even that good this year and I got everything on my Christmas list…including grand babies? I was so feeling that Christmas spirit now! For maybe like a millisecond. Whadda you mean they aren’t mine? Someone was sucking the joy out of my air now! I finally compromised with my cousin, he could have his babies back and I could go to his house and hold them anytime I want. Supervised. I’ll get those grand babies, someday. Right boys?

————————-

Yeah, they’re pretty much the most amazing son’s in the world. They love me, they spoil me, they inspire me. We had an amazing day, the one thing that would have made it better would have been if my future daughter in law was there with us. We missed her but someone’s gotta put some O.T. in to pay for all these presents she’s an R.N. and unfortunately people get sick even on Christmas. She’ll be there with us next year though, she has to… remember? I am going to reacquaint myself with the Christmas spirit. I am going to deck the halls, jingle my bells…I’m even going to…get a Christmas tree!
