Going forward, and I'm going to ask the lawyer in a minute, but I believe Jolene's going to start to get discovery in that case. So it'll be very interesting to see what Amy does about that. I think that case will get to discovery before the one in la. And, you know, you sue somebody for defamation, truth is an absolute defense to a claim of defamation against you. So Jolene is absolutely going to try to prove that what she alleges in her complaint, which is that Amy stole her story, is true. But here's a complication on the Jolene side. So these are facts that are potentially good for Amy. Jolene alleged that in 2022 or 2023, forgive me, I don't have it all in my head. Someone going by the name of Dominic, Dominique Price, contacted her. This is part of. This is part of Jolene's story about how Amy stole her story. She's got the church meeting back when they were 12, when she says Amy learned all about it, but she's also got this. She says after that anodyne 2019 meeting they had out in Palm Springs, California, which Amy denies, that Jolene was contacted by someone going by the name of Dominique Price, who said, I'd love to meet. I'm a Hollywood producer and I've heard about you and I'd love to learn more about your story that she met with this Dominique Price, that she gave him the whole story, all the details, the bandana, the boot on the back, I'll rip your teeth out, all of it. And that they had a meeting or a couple of meetings, and that it was progressing along to where he was clearly going to ask her to sign the rights to her story over to him. And a friend of hers who was a lawyer told Jolene, you should get the contract in writing before your in person meeting and I will review it before you go out there. So that Jolene alleges, she said to Dominique Price, I would like to see the contract before I come. And that Dominique and some female underling of his, who with whom she was also dealing, like, got defensive and shut down and she never heard from them again. As soon as she brought a lawyer or a legal document into it, they disappeared. And she has Dominique Price's phone number. And. And Jolene, in one of her complaints included this fact about Dominique Price contacting her. She gave the life story, I mean, query how any legitimate Hollywood agent would ever have heard of Joelle's, sorry, Jolene's story and like reached out.
