An update on the ongoing civil suit involving Mike Missanelli and Joe Krause’s JAKIB Media. Krause filed a motion to dismiss the case because he says Mikey Miss provided incomplete evidence to support his claim of unpaid compensation amounting to more than $50,000. Among the omissions, he says, is a page from the contract:

The filing goes into more detail about the absence of the signature page and also alleges a “violation of ethical rules and professional responsibility,” claiming that the omission of evidence amounts to misrepresentation. In layman’s terms, Krause is arguing that the lack of full documentation makes it impossible to wholly evaluate the breach of contract claim, and therefore the case should be tossed.

The full contract was entered as evidence, but first, Missanelli’s original filing, back in October, which contains a two-page document looking like this:

You see a list of other obligations there, including appearances at various sponsor events and a one-hour weekly recap and lookahead show. Krause’s motion includes the following third page:

So there’s a bit of extra language there about using social media to grow the brand. Also in the court system is a Krause filing for a stay of proceedings on the preliminary objections filed by Missanelli, which judge Jeffrey Saltz denied. You may recall recently that Saltz also denied Krause’s motion to prevent Missanelli from discussing the case publicly, a gag order more or less. After those court hearings, Krause alleges he was threatened and intimidated by Missanelli, requiring a courthouse officer to “intervene and physically restrain him to prevent further escalation.” Missanelli denied the accusation, saying that there was “no physical altercation other than his failed, belligerent attempt to get into the elevator with my attorney and myself.”
