Why Wasn't the Appeal Brief Filed RE: Idaho4 Defamation Case

Here we provide pure opinions, comments, and speculation concerning events occurring in the Idaho4 Defamation case, a 2 count federal lawsuit alleging defamation of character by a University of Idaho (Moscow) History Professor against an on-line personality/content creator and psychic in the case styled as Rebecca Scofield v. Ashley Guillard which resulted in a $10 million judgment in Plaintiff's favor following a jury trial. The defense filed an appeal to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeal with her Initial Brief on the Merits due June 29, 2026. It was not however filed that day and here we explain why. Everything here represents the pure opinion, commentary, speculation and rhetorical questions per the First Amendment to the United States Constitution which states at Amendment I:Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.It is codified within Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act, which provides that fair use of a work “for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use, scholarship, or research)” is not an infringement of copyright. #Idaho4#RebeccaScofield#AshleyGuillard#FreeSpeech
