I don't know the intricacies in other states, but like I said, I don't think it matters at all since as far as I've seen, he wasn't employed by anyone anyway. We would need to know the terms of his contracts to even speculate if he had a case against anyone. Which we never will...
Thanks, I'm fairly certain in the UK that the criminal case has to conclude before any action can be taken by the organisation which is why we get things that look odd in the newspapers - (for example, police officer already serving 20+ years for murder has now been sacked).Hmm.. based on US law yes he can sue most businesses that fired, or removed his work based on now known false allegations. I'm sure the businesses think otherwise.
Problem is does he have the money, the patience, and the will to do so?
Look at Johnny Depp for an example of what can happen.
True probably NDA's and other laws that prohibit that information to be leaked.
By various Codex accounts, neither really has any money and were represented by their lawyers pro-bono. So being awarded a million vs. getting any money at all out of them will very likely be two very different things.
Avellone gets it. It's the only thing that makes sense. Plus it's been confirmed by people who have contacted him.

Isn't that always what happens. Nobody wants facts just click bait sensualist articles. The correct way would be to investigate and actually cross check statements made on Twitter.Chris Avellone accepts 'seven-figure payment' to settle libel suit with those who accused him of sexual misconduct
"We believe that he deserves a full return to the industry and support him in those endeavors."

You mean who's supposed to be paying it or who's actually paying it? I'm pretty sure the latter is no one.
Yeah who's actually paying. Okey, why is that?You mean who's supposed to be paying it or who's actually paying it? I'm pretty sure the latter is no one.
Hopefully society will progress, not regress, towards a state where, as attempts like these are successfully met with retributive justice, they become less common and no longer tolerated. Who knows~
Because you can't squeeze water out of a rock.
I thought it was blood out of a turnip.
