John Steele filed an answer on Oct 30 to the complaint on Aug 20 against him by the Illinois Disciplinary Commission: http://www.iardc.org/ANS15PR0068.pdf
The question is not "is there any evidence that will convince them", but "is there any evidence they would accept". The answer, of course, is no, because their goal isn't to be convinced or accept any kind of evidence at all. Their goal is more surveillance, terrorism or no terrorism, at any cost. Terrorism is just the simplest excuse for them to try to get more and more surveillance, no matter what.
Did he post on the police facebook page and they went out and arrested him, or did he post on the city/town (village? wtf is that?) facebook page and then the little snowflake town councilmen/commissioners/mayor file charges and order the police to go arrest him? If the local prosecutor files charges and issues an arrest warrent, the police don't have much say in the matter.
One other reason they can't, or won't, admit that it's true, is that would then give it more public attention and "advertise" the fact, which would then gain even more cord cutters. In other words, it might snowball. And they know it.
Where do you draw the line with this, though? How many US companies would take advantage, and deliberately hide data in off-shore servers just to keep it away from US government/regulators?

These Prenda court cases and their results have become too common place, pretty blase. Now, it takes a lot more to generate the same amount of excitement. I'm waiting for asset seizure or forfeiture or whatever it's called, to satisfy these judgements. Next above that will be any of the multiple Bar associations cases and disbarments. Then the best parts of all will be criminal cases by the DOJ and IRS. How many years till we get to see it all?
There is no way Steele is going to be able to say "I didn't understand the courts directive", or "I didnt interpret it that way", or "I thought it was no longer valid"
Don't say that there's no way he can say that. He will come up with something along those lines, to try to cover his ass.
Now the first thing anybody will find on the internet about her is her actions in this lawsuit and appeal. Who the hell would want to hire her after this?
Nothing bad will happen to KlearGear unless the person who was sent to collections directly sues them.
Which is exactly what this case is, but since KlearGear didn't respond to the suit and nobody knows who the owners are, nothing bad will happen to KlearGear at all.
Can't the attorney request permission from the court to send subpoenas to try to ID the owners? Subpoena the registrar of the domain name, the website hosting company, the mail forwarding service if that's all their listed address is, the phone company for the listed 1-800 number, Paypal, and credit card companies and/or banks that forward the payments.
I doubt they just suddenly realized they had no case. What they suddenly realized was that the defense finally made the argument that they don't want a court to rule on to set a precedent.
Shuler's worst enemy in this case is....Shuler. Anybody who represents themself has a fool for a client and an idiot for an attorney, even if they are an attorney to begin with, which Shuler clearly isn't. He seems to go out of his way to prove how big of an idiot he is, with the things he tries to do legally and in court. And out of court, too. He needs a real attorney who will kick him in the ass hard enough to make him listen, and he could get him out of this mess. But he won't listen to anyone, so he won't even try to hire an attorney, so he just keeps digging himself deeper. He won't help himself just out of spite. Yeah, the judge is wrong, but Shuler can't fight it without a real attorney and he won't hire one.
