LOLSUIT

Washington County Circuit Court > flaglerchat

Since 1989, Mannix has sued 28 times in Washington County Circuit Court, not counting a divorce case and an application for a concealed handgun permit.

After over a decade of bogging down the courts with frivolous lawsuits and endless appeals, Patrick Mannix is BANNED from ever filing another lawsuit in Washington County, VA again.[9]

More Fail

I've got all day bitch.

2005 Mannix charged in Tennesee with telephone harassment.

Exhibit A; "Pat Mannix Calls to WPWT 870AM" provided to the Sullivan County Law Court by Information Communications Corporation, indicates that Pat Mannix attempted to call WPWT 870AM "Good Morning Tri-Cities" 521 times between September 5, 2005 and October 10, 2005 and also attempted to call the afternoon WPWT 870AM "The Local View" program 252 times between September 5, 2005 and October 10, 2005.

2007 Mannix runs for Sheriff, uses Topix dot com for his mudslinging campaign against Sheriff Newman, loses election.[10]*[11]

2007 Mannix starts trolling "The Marc Bernier Show".

After calling this radio show over 150 times, they block Mannix from calling. Mannix sues the show for refusing to accept his calls. The lawsuit went badly for Mannix, because when all was said and done, he was ordered to pay over $10,000 to Bernier's attorneys.

2007 Sues radio host Marc Bernier for $3,000 for refusing to accept his phone calls

2008 Bernier counter sued and won $10,000 for attorney fees. Mannix actually sued Marc Bernier's lawyers secretary over this one.

Since 1989, Mannix has sued 28 times in Washington County Circuit Court, not counting a divorce case and an application for a concealed handgun permit. He has sued three times in Bristol Circuit Court, not counting the Bernier case. He would not discuss in detail how he finances his legal crusades, but estimated that he has sunk perhaps $10,000 in them over more than two decades. He would spend that much again fighting to deny Bernier’s attorneys from collecting money he thinks they’re not entitled to, he said.

Mannix’s case against Florida-based radio host Marc Bernier – for refusing to take his phone calls and taking out a warrant for telephone harassment – has long since flipped the other way, as Bernier successfully reversed the $3,000 default judgment entered against him, and a circuit court judge slapped Mannix with hefty sanctions.

Mannix contested the initial $10,000 in sanctions – designed to punish someone who sues frivolously or to harass – all the way to the Supreme Court. After the high court refused to hear the appeal, Bernier’s lawyers – who by then had racked up more fees defending the appeal – filed a petition to tack another $1,000 of expenses onto Mannix’s bill. The circuit court judge presiding over the case approved it – and went a step further.

"Mr. Mannix is ordered to make payments of at least $200.00 per month until the full amount of monetary sanctions is paid," states the Aug. 21, 2009, order approved by Judge Isaac St. Clair Freeman. Freeman also ordered that he would "superintend ministerially the execution of [his] orders, including enforcement of the Court’s directive that Mr. Mannix make regular minimum monthly payments."

But Mannix did not pay. He appealed.

UR DOING IT WRONG

Pat Mannix goes back on Topix to slam Marc Bernier. [12]

Also starts a very "Flaglerchat like" blog badmouthing Bernier. Posts PI accusing him of having a gay husband, and that his gay husband beats him "like a rented mule".*[13]

This is where Patrick Mannix decided to be more careful about hiding his identity. He split his lust for PI and his natural gadfly personality into 2 distinct characters. The first, Flaglerchat, a 15 yr old boy who posts nonsensical strings of PI. Mannix/Flaglerchat has literally hundreds of alternate accounts, and literally thousands of permanent and throw away IP and email addresses. But his most famous alternate account, a 35 year old transvestite named Obnoxious Bitch, fulfilled his desire to be a gadfly.

But instead of annoying the Washington County Board of Supervisors, Mannix/Flaglerchat focuses his rage at message board owners through his creation Obnoxious Bitch. OB is the champion of Flaglerchat's right to post peoples private information and his own #1 fan.
