He tried. His lawyer literally said “and get what out of it? More legal fees?”
The lawyer said they would have to prove that she did it on her own free will and maliciously. She could easily play the battered, weak female, who was put in a bad position by her ex card. The world we live in.
Then he needs a better lawyer (more shady) or just end her and her family.
I have been sued several times and the second thing I always do is counter sue.
