Insurer Privilege Underwriters took its name too far trying to obtain privileges from the Arkansas Court of Appeals to which it was not entitled and acted contumaciously by disobeying the Circuit Court’s discovery order. In Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange v. Brandon Adams, No. CV-23-474, 2024 Ark.App. 571, Court of Appeals of Arkansas, Division I (November 20, 2024) the circuit court granted appellee Brandon Adams’s motion to enforce court order and motion for sanctions, imposed a “sanction fee in the amount of $5,000” against appellant Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange (“Privilege”), and awarded Adams $2,500 in attorneys’ fees and costs under Arkansas Rule of Civil Procedure 37; denied Privilege’s motion for summary judgment; and denied Privilege’s motion for protective order, which sought to bar Adams from taking any depositions. FACTS In an insurance-coverage action in which Adams sued Privilege, his insurer, for failing to provide him a defense in a lawsuit filed against Adams and several other individuals and entities. Privilege answered Adams’s coverage complaint denying that it owed Adams a duty to defend the lawsuit and asserting a number of the subject policies’ exclusions as affirmative defenses to coverage. Adams served written discovery on Privilege. Privilege responded with objections and inadequate responses to Adams’s discovery requests. Adams moved to compel Privilege to respond and produce documents and the Court of Appeals ordered Privilege respond and to pay Adams’s attorneys’ fees and costs in the amount of $2,000. Privilege produced its supplemental interrogatory answers and supplemental privilege log on March 2, 2022 but did not comply with the circuit court’s discovery order. Contrary to the court’s order Privilege refused to amend its privilege log, provide full and complete answers to Adams’s interrogatories, or produce any witnesses for deposition, and instead, Privilege moved for summary judgment. Adams then filed his “Motion to Enforce Court Order and Motion for Sanctions and Incorporated Brief” on April 25, 2022. On December 20, 2022, the circuit court held a hearing on Adams’s motion for sanctions and Privilege’s motions for summary judgment and for protective order. The circuit court announced that it would sanction Privilege for its failure to comply with the circuit court’s February 2022 discovery order. From the bench, the circuit court made specific findings that Privilege had failed to comply with the provisions of that order requiring Privilege to amend its privilege log to provide sufficient information to allow the circuit court and Adams to evaluate Privilege’s claims of attorney-client privilege and work-product protection and to fully answer Adams’s interrogatories. TO ESTABLISH CONTEMPT Generally, in order to establish contempt, there must be willful disobedience of a valid order of a court. Contempt is a matter between the court and the litigant, and not between the two opposing litigants. Before one can be held in contempt for violating the court’s order, the order must be definite in its terms, clear as to what duties it imposes, and express in its commands. Contempt is divided into criminal contempt and civil contempt. The standard of review on appeal depends on whether the contempt sanction was civil or criminal in nature. The circuit court imposed a fine and fees that were to be paid to Adams. A contempt fine for willful disobedience that is payable to the complainant is remedial and therefore constitutes a fine for civil contempt. Privilege refused to comply with a valid discovery order from the circuit court because Privilege disputed Adams’s entitlement to the discovery underlying that order. Instead, Privilege moved for summary judgment, attempting to render moot that prior discovery order. The circuit court rightly held Privilege in contempt for its willful disobedience of the circuit court’s February 2022 discovery order and imposed a fine of $5,000. Once the February 2022 discovery order was entered, Privilege was required to comply with that order, not question the propriety of that order or when Privilege should comply with it. The circuit court was unequivocal in finding at the December 2022 hearing that it was sanctioning Privilege for its violation of the February 2022 discovery order. The circuit court then went on to explain that Privilege had disobeyed its February 2022 order by failing to provide contact information for the witnesses identified in response to Interrogatory No. 1 and by failing to provide a privilege log with sufficient information to allow the circuit court and Adams to evaluate the claim of attorney-client privilege and work-product protection. Thus, the Court of Appeals held that the circuit court did not clearly err in holding Privilege in contempt. The circuit court had ample authority to use its contempt powers to enforce its February 2022 discovery order. ZALMA OPINION This order must be more than embarrassing to Privilege and to the insurance industry. Parties to litigation are not entitled to refuse to fulfill an order of the court. Regardless of the name of the insurer it had no special privileges and must fulfill the order to the letter and pay the sanctions including the extra sanctions placed by the Court of Appeals.

Hypocrites and corrupt evil leftist have refused to called the earthquakes that happened in Tajikistan an outcome of climate change ,Since 1950 many people have been killed by the direct consequences of earthquake’s in Tajikistan which is also a climate change

🚨 THEY ALREADY TOOK 500,000 KIDS AND NOW THEY WANT MORE! It's kinda like the hopium being presented here! "Josh Hawley" and others who work for the #Corporation of the United States, and helped to create EVERY PROBLEM THIS COUNTRY HAS EXPERIENCED, is now pretending to "Grill" his accomplices in this #Crime, like he's going to do anything other than THE SAME THING HE HAS BEEN DOING.... NOTHING!' Folks what you call #Government is a #Satanic, #Pedophile filled CORPORATION! Their job is to keep you fighting with your neighbors, so that you and your neighbors don't UNITE, head to Washington DC and tar and feather every last one of them! Along with the #Banker scumbags who pay and control them! It's time to pull your head gently from your ass and realize that if you want "Justice" YOU are going to have to go get it YOURSELF! Because at this point you are a #Slave on the Plantation of the United States.... Some of your "fellow slaves" have been given guns, immunity from prosecution, and immunity from liability, along with some "special privileges" to protect the real criminals FROM YOU! NONE of these criminals, including your fellow slaves with a badge, are EVER going to arrest the real criminals OR change a single thing! They WILL continue protecting it, like they have always done! It's natural to want JUSTICE.... It's NOT NATURAL to think that the criminals will "Prosecute Themselves" and send THEMSELVES to prison! If you want JUSTICE I suggest you get up off your ass, and go get it! And BTW I'd just like to point out here.... Having children trained and "operating industrial equipment" as their parents are killed/go missing reminds me a LOT of the LAST RESET! Remember the orphans operating industrial equipment??? No parents to be found, just orphans??? Do you remember that??? https://old.bitchute.com/video/C77mBiFnFUBA/

If you had the chance to tell the Trump White House what changes to make first, what would you say? It turns out you do have that chance! Last night I was contacted by Dan Scavino, White House Deputy Chief of staff and asked that very question. In full transparency, I believe it was more of a small mass text mailing but I do believe they are sincere in hearing what I (we) think. I was told that: “ Listen, every time you made your voice heard, you pushed us one step closer to making history.” And the message said “President Trump hears you; he’s all about delivering on real promises.” My response was as follows: “1. We need to see the J-6 political prisoners released and have their records cleansed! 2. We need to see the evil doers held accountable for their deeds. This would include but not be limited to the persons that stole the election, the persons that allowed the steal to take place. 3. This would also include all persons that enabled the Covid 19 scam, the lying about the efficacy and safety of the covid vax. 4. This would also include all those that committed lawfare. 5. We need to immediately clear all 16 Michigan electors such as my friends Meshawn Maddock and Marian Sheridan of any charges, etc. 6. We need to seek out, expose and prosecute all persons that have contributed to on going election fraud such as we seen where the Dems continue to count fake ballots for up to two weeks after election day. 7. We severely need help adjudicate the enormous fraud committed here in Michigan by Governor Gretchen Whitmer, SOS Jocelyn Benson and AG Dana Nessel. The Michigan Executive Branch is Corrupt! ______________________ Michigan Governor, Gretchen Whitmer, corruption evidence: (drive.google.com/file/d/19MflA1…) (drive.google.com/file/d/1T29ZLK…) (drive.google.com/file/d/16WM5R-…) Michigan Secretary Of State, Jocelyn Benson, corruption evidence: (drive.google.com/file/d/1hf4hkN…) (drive.google.com/file/d/1PGHeLK…) (drive.google.com/file/d/1VvdHRF…) Michigan Attorney General, Dana Nessel corruption evidence: (drive.google.com/file/d/1-MNG_5…) (drive.google.com/file/d/1LX5pOg…) Clearly Justice must begin and continue until completion!” So, now I ask you; What would you like to see Trump accomplish first? Let’s make sure that the Trump Whitehouse continues to listen to us!

UNCANCELABLE MEETS GREGORY REESE I like Greg Reese! He has more sense than most and eyes that see! I don't hold his affiliation with Alex Jones against him! Even Alex had his useful moments! Of course his views on the bible are misinformed... Like claiming that YHWH is "genocidal" A little knowledge is far more dangerous than NO KNOWLEDGE! In this day and age, if you don't know WHY YHWH told his people to "Wipe them ALL out, the women, children, animals etc...." then you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground! Mankind (YHWH's Creation) had it's #DNA altered, just like is happening TODAY, with Nephilim DNA! WHY did He say to "kill them all?" Well dummy.... TO SAVE HIS CREATION! To save mankind! Because the Nephilim hybrids were eating us and wiping us out! It's a shame to see people misinformed But it is what it is! Am I "sitting around waiting on the end of the world" so that Jesus comes back? NO, I'm not.... I'll fight until my last breathe, like my Father made me to do! Do I believe the bible and the truth within? ABSOLUTELY! It has been proven right more times than ANY MAN has! The Most High has changed my life completely, so if YOU want to doubt the word, be my guest.... But don't ask me to join you! I KNOW BETTER! Stew sure was quiet for a bible believing Christian! I don't think I could have held my tongue like that! https://old.bitchute.com/video/0RRFbiO8ywXM/
