"The reason we filed in the lawsuit in the simplest terms possible is to prevent.... profiting from illegal conduct," Rains told The Associated Press on Thursday.
Except he's not denying the use of steriods with this lawsuit. He just wants to stop someone from making a buck off his name and story. He's pissed because he wanted to write (hahahah) the first book of his steroid use.4 king guy wrote:Barry's been listening to JIM ROME!

thanks for the clarification...R-Jack wrote:Notice he is not suing for slander.PL wrote:I would like a lawyers opinion.... but if barroids basis for suing is that the authors lies are harming him, and the author turns about to be telling the truth, wouldn't Barroid be openning himself for further damages (ie author wrongly accused of being a liar) maybe the author should immediately counter sue...and so on.
but...not being a lawyer, maybe one could shed some light on this.
He is suing to stop production because the book contians information from that grand jury testimony that was leaked.
Kind of odd that he would not sue over the content in the book but the way the content was found. Doesn't exactly clear his name if he wins.
It's a book. You meant liable right? He's not suing for liable, he can't sue for slander 'cause it wasn't spoken.R-Jack wrote: Notice he is not suing for slander.
No because if he sues for liable, truth is a defense and the respondent would be able to depose Barry. ? That would be under oath.Kind of odd that he would not sue over the content in the book but the way the content was found.
