Legal Eagle and Coffeezilla is the unknown team up we didn’t know we needed
LegalEagle: Will Logan Paul win the lawsuit against Coffeezilla?
Me imitating a famous Invincible meme: That's the best part: He won't.
21:54 "I'll put a link to Coffeezilla's Patreon in the description"
It's not there?
Edit: Not long after my comment, both the description and the pinned comment were edited to contain the Patreon link.
Professionally speaking, I don't care what Logan Paul does as his hobby, but man, he promised but couldn't deliver. That's very disappointing of you, man
@@zdelrod829 I'm guessing coffeezilla has a link on his UA-cam page
Trying to silence an investigative reporter is a massive sign that you’ve done some illegal shady ass shit.
As much as I don’t like Logan I’d be pissed lmao he’s the ONLY influencer being forced to pay back, even Jason derito and 100 other influencers just scammed all their fans and getting away lol
@@devonwilliams2423 ?? Yea, I guess he's allowed to be pissed pissed. How come all the other scammers get to scam and Logan isn't allowed?! Unfair! xD
@@devonwilliams2423 That's your logic to justify being a Logan Paul fanboy...? You think other people aren't being held accountable and so he shouldn't...???
Read between the lines, @@Umega101
I wouldn't think that he is a fanboy 😂
Thats a really dumb way to see things. Thats like saying lets not punish this murderer since so many more are walking free out there, so dumb@@devonwilliams2423
First rule of investigative reporting: "If they try to sue you to shut you up, you're probably on to something."
On the other hand, people *do* also commit defamation for various personal, financial, and political interests, and lawsuits are the way to resolve those matters. See, for example, the various lawsuits by Dominion and other voting machine manufacturers against Fox News and the rest of the conservative spreaders of the Big Lie about the falsehoods spread about their machines.
Terminally online comment
That's a Hbomberguy quote, actually
~ Alex Jones
@@charn00hYou sure the qoute isn‘t from Tommy Tallarico, his mother‘s very proud of that
Using the photo of him in the Japanese forest when talking about his "rehabilitated image" is just *chef's kiss*
I caught that too 💯
You beat me to it. "Outstanding citizen" had me rolling.
Edit: *Upstanding, my bad
For anyone who's not aware, the first major event with the Paul brothers on UA-cam was from a video in Aokigahara Forest, a location in Japan infamous for people un-aliving themselves. In 2017, Logan Paul filmed there... and it was a gross event. It disgusted me. I was 17 back then.
I wanna emphasize, this was a FIRST. It was a MAJOR event. People need to talk about it more, because there are younger people who have NO IDEA about this.
@@XXMatt0040XXWhat I almost despised more than the actual event was the people defending his actions after the fact, "He was young" or "He's changed" etc. The shit with coffeezilla proved I was right all along about his mental health apology tour being purely for PR and not because he gave a damn.
Someone made a video on how Logan has always been a bad person and showed that after a while since the forest video he was bragging about how he actually gained a lot more subscribers after the incident and he can't be touched. And even now in his lawsuit he's using the forest incident as if it's his learning moment and how he decided to be better. @@clocked0
It brings me joy to learn that Logal Paul's own attorney couldn't be bothered to spell his name correctly.
Truly one of the lawyers of all time.
@@Watcher-of-Forms the lawyer ever, even
wait can someone give me a timestamp?
@@kyuuketsukiinu11:38
"Mr. Hutz, do you realize you're not wearing any pants?"
Worst part is that Logan Paul could just use the money he’s going to spend on his lawsuit to actually pay back his fans who got rugged with Cryptozoo. What a bad decision.
The guy is a narcissist, he would gouge his eyes out before "losing" that bad to a "nobody" (in his eyes) as Coffee
That would be admitting he is at fault. And Logan is never at fault
It’s fine. He’s still got more money he can be sued for
@@cb-9938 It's just a severe and continuous lapse of his judgement
Paying back..acknowledges and sets logan up for lawsuit.
Paul: Coffeezilla is defaming me.
LegalEagle: Hold on while I amplify Coffeezilla's claim.
A slapp is certainly going to help his reputation.
I know right
👏🏽 😂
@@paulmaartin I'm probably being stupid, but who's reputation is it going to affect and how?
@@garethkalum8297 i think there's a term for this called the streisand effect, but it's pretty common with how when you try to silence a topic, it only makes people want to look into it more and stuff. it's based off a real event where someone kept trying to take photos of their mansion off the internet and in the end, only brought more eyes on it. the irony is that in trying to silence or forbid people from finding out, you end up having more people find out, like me who never even knew this existed until i looked into it. Logan is not gonna help his reputation if he thinks trying to silence people will make himself seem better. Guess you can also say Jimmy didn't learn from logan's mistakes, but they're friends so it sounds about right. no honor in criminals
logan paul need to learn all the intricacies around scamming kids, but damn mr.beast might be a bad teacher actually
When I hear "Don't email my manager, email me" I hear "I'm doing something I want to hide from the people who handle my paperwork."
There's some stuff where it can work. Like personal beef between two people.
But when the subject is about specific plans that is clear Logan wouldn't know how to _manage_ himself... That's like, the whole point of a manager.
@@williamfalls
Personal issues can grow, fast, and if they are rubbing against your Professional Life...?
Get someone else involved to mediate, as soon as possible, if just to protect yourself.
The manager was also involved in the scam so 😅
@@lostbutfreesoul Well spoken. Or typed, rather.
Especially when he makes it so hard to get a hold of him.
He (Coffeezilla) is also running a merch store selling some super cool shirts. He intends to use the proceeds from that merch for this lawsuit and, in the off chance that there's excess, that money will be held for future lawsuits.
I’m buying some merch today! Let’s show our support to someone that defends people against scammers
Saw the video, and merhcandise, last night. Going to order one today - they are quality!
I was hoping to buy some merch but he's all sold out! gonna have to wait for the next round, but I'm happy to see everyones supporting him
Logan Paul is a grifter. Well done to Coffeezilla for calling him out.
Logan Paul is many things, grifter probably being the most positive thing to say about him.
Other descriptors are not to be uttered in polite company.
@@macsmith2013 what would be the worse examples in that case?
@@codeinho On top of my head, the "suicide forest controversy", his phony (non-)excuses in the aftermath, and him targeting children in his internet presence.
Not that it matters much, as this reply probably won't post anyways.
Oi! You gonna get sue
Glad Mr B is still keeping him front and center.
The crazy part of this lawsuit is that it implies that logan paul's reputation has any value at all
My thoughts exactly. His character and reputation are despicable.
Apparently it does because despite everything he's done over the years some people still shockingly support him... sad 😕
Sadly it does to children just look how crazy they go for prime
Logan Paul never had any reputation
@@ClumsyToasthes a fighter now I wonder ir that changes anything? Idk nothing law lol
I'll never understand why so many people will simp for the kind of guy who probably would've bullied them in school.
Some of them want to use you.
Some of them want to be used by you.
Some of them want to abuse you.
Some of them want to be abused.
Children or manchildren who grew up on Logan.
Because they want to BE him.
@@enviritas9498Crazy to think that song is 40yrs+ old. Still a banger
Why? That’s a very human reaction.
Logan: “You’ve turned my fans against me!”
Coffeezilla: “You have done that yourself.”
"I hate youu!"

😂😂
Well, he is a tall blonde guy who breaks the rules and then feels entitled to move on without consequences 😂.
The idea that either Paul brother is suing for defamation, when everyone who's ever heard of them already thinks they're both scumbags, is hilarious.
Doesn't have money to pay to those he scammed, but has enough money to pay lawyers to sue Coffeezilla...
If that's not proof that he's a huge POS.... instead of doing the right thing and just eating his "mistakes" he says "screw the people I screwed I'd rather be spiteful"
The bizarre thing is given how much money he's making on stuff like Prime he has to be risking negative PR worse than what it would cost to just do a full refund.
@@iverbrnstad791 Fun fact: He and KSI both fully admitted that he has millions of dollars at his disposal ready to give to people but he instead uses his money to try and paint others in a bad light even though he has a legal obligation to pay people back. I wish the Feds gave a shit about him scamming people, admitting to it, and then trying to sue anyone who comes after him but nope. The Feds care more about people scamming the government than people like Logan literally scamming people (which is illegal) and then he does a whole lot of illegal shit behind the scenes of Prime (which is ass) while bragging about it on his podcasts.
@@iverbrnstad791 I’ve never heard any good news with Logan Pauls name attached to it.
Why they’d ever approach him for a Brand deal is beyond me.
Oh he has money dont let him fool you haha, hes got that wwe money
The Paul brothers will only be remembered for how long they managed to stay out of prison while doing as much bad for society as possible
They are the PERFECT example of "just because it's legal doesn't mean it's moral". So many people think you need to be found criminally guilty by a judge in a courtroom before your actions can be called immoral. It's crazy! I just wanna shake people like that lol now I might just show them the Paul brothers 🤔
We have (so far): The recording, disrespect and monetization of a S*icide in a Foreign Country, multiple counts of animal abuse/mistreatment occasionally resulting in death of said animals, Scamming their followers out of actual real world money, Generally being called out for rigging boxing fights/never fighting proper or actual boxers, and more to come!
@@Slvt4Bread The people claiming rigging are blind/themselves pathological liars and therefore think everyone is.
It is explained by the second part of your sentence: they're fighting ancient/retired MMA fighters that never excelled at the striking part of that sport.
@@Slvt4Breadthat first thing is also what f-ed up UA-cam monetization for everyone.
Once a 60 year old M.T. crushes these Grifters...nobody is really going to remember.
Coffeezilla: *Massive amount of evidence that Cryptozoo is a scam*
Logan Paul: Nuh-uh!! *Lawsuit*
The narrator after Logan Paul realized that Coffeezilla has more than plenty of enough evidence for him to win the lawsuit: It was at this moment that he know... He f...ed up!
You forgot his other excuse
Logal: It was everyone else's fault, even though I hired them all.
I find it funny he is using Coffeezilla's own investigation and videos in his case against his business partners.
Would be super awkward if Coffeezilla is called into testify his own findings, while being sued by the same man.
or Logan's evidence is thrown out, cause he has personally and publicly refutted everything Coffeezilla said.
@@ARTSONICFAN990Narrator: but Logan would not refund the people their money
@@theweirdo61 Its the modern who dunnit... its not the butler anymore... its always the third-party "contractor"
Anytime a business messes up its always a contractor, give it two days and Crowdstrike will be telling us "A contractor" did it.
People need to understand that this is not an attack on Coffeezilla, but an attack on all of us. Coffeezilla protected people with his videos and Logan wants to stop that for his own selfish gain. We need to fully support Coffeezilla here just like he has done for us so many times.
That's what makes it a SLAPP suit and why creating federal anti-SLAPP laws are so important. It's great Coffee has a platform and can raise money to fight this frivolous suit; a lot of people aren't in his position but deserve the same protection for coming forward with things the public has a right to know about.
People like Logal shouldn't be able to file strategic lawsuits to make their problems go away.
Well 😂 on one hand , if you invest into a commodity, you have a responsibility to understand that you have no guarantee of results.
A bunch if people were fan boy pledging and others speculated..
Second, you can't use opinion of heresay as a fact.
Why just because someone sues you doesn't mean anything is a ""scam""
@@luvdady ...except that the people selling it were making guarantees and that's how they sold it. It wasn't just "a really fun game", it was "a really fun game _that makes you money_ ". People will accept responsibility for losing money when the people selling them investments stop making claims that they will make money.
And you're 100% right, it's not a fact, it's Coffee's opinion that it's a scam, and that's why the lawsuit is a bad lawsuit. You can't sue someone for reputational damage over their opinion, it has to be for spreading information that they knew is factually false. It's not factually false to say it's his opinion it's a scam.
@theBestElliephant you got a disclosure of the contract?
Yeah that's the problem
@@luvdady What contract? A celebrity selling their own products is almost never gonna have a contract, and if they did then it'd be a red flag in of itself.
That doesn't mean the way they're choosing to market things is kosher. If you actually knew what you thought you knew, you'd understand there are claims you cannot make when advertising unless you have certain paperwork in place or data to back up your claims.
If this was _not_ just a game, Logal would need to do the paperwork for his "game" to be a registered security. If he didn't want to do that (and based on paperwork, he didn't) he can't say his game will make you money. He made documented claims without the paperwork to back those claims up, that seems like one of the most basic definitions of a scam to me. But hey, that's just a common legal opinion. Feel free to pull up with some actual facts.
It's real easy to not be an unregistered security, but that makes it a lot harder to scam people. Keep digging that hole though, you're just proving how much this was, in my opinion, a scam.
The joke of a person who scammed his gullible followers multiple times is upset that Coffeezilla called out for scamming. This is after he said he wouldn't sue. I have the popcorn ready for discovery. You know Coffee's lawyers are gonna uncover all kinds of dirt on him.
Uncover? The only thing his lawyer have to do is post his photo from Japan and say "Behold. Dirt." I have never believed his supposed learned lessons from that fiasco.
Let's go can't wait to see how this goes
Don’t need. Coffee’s already got stacks of it.
@@Towkeeyoh.... oh he already knows everything? Why learn anything new, he already knows it all.. why question if you know everything when you obviously do.

Having a lawyer gleefully ask “you wanna dance?” Oddly terrifying
Well said! 😂
This has the same tone as someone replying "Promise ? :D" when being threaten of Legal actions.
What time stamp is that? I think I missed it.
🧑⚖️⚖️🕺
@@Noneya4090:00 to 0:09
'I'm gonna say some mean things about you. You wanna dance?' is probably the hardest lines I had ever heard from a lawyer outside Suits 🥶
Devin knows he's gonna win no matter what
A variation on Dan Olson's "I'm gonna say some unkind things, because facts on display are prima facie unkind"
@@A0chewy Like you?
@@xceedsilva The comment's gone, did they say something funny?
Terrific image (in the video) to accompany that statement. 😄
having an individual that basically lives, eats and breaths the legal system ask you if you tryna dance is ridiculously terrifying😂😂
I thought so too. It felt like he was the main character with max-level shit challenging the first boss of the game in easy mode
Logan is trying to punch down. Someone who is more qualified than he is shows up. Wanna be the big guy now, Logan?
The photo made me laugh tho
@@ParakeetDSi Could be any sort of dancing, but flamenco seems to be the right choice here.
Devin saying "wanna dance" within the first like 10 seconds _knowing_ that other popular figures (like Illuminaughti) have shot themselves in the foot trying to go after Devin is an absolutue power move.
I feel like it should be common sense not to try and sue a lawyer for dumb reasons but guess not, no wonder lawyers are so rich lmfao
a lawyer saying "wanna dance" is incredibly threatening 😂
I said that in a suit and the plaintiff used it in court...
To be fair, Illuminaughtii's reputation went down the train because of the fallout of her attempt at drama with LegalEagle, not as a direct consequence of it, and she's making her victims lives still a living hell.
The edit with him holding the rose during the "wanna dance" line made me almost lose my coffee
The fact that Logan does crap like this all the time but big brands and celebrities still adore him is pretty sickening
Only way for the brands and other celebrities to stop supporting and adoring him is if THEIR wallet gets hurt from just association with him.
yeah like the guy said logan's not a "unworkable" brand yet and this all happened because youtube didn't ban the guy that showed a dead body.
@@xaevius5319 i think he deserved a temporary ban at that point, nothing permanent, and nothing he has done since then should get him banned (as far as I'm aware.) But it is shocking that he has enough popularity to be on WWE etc and get all these big opportunities when I don't know if anyone actually likes him? Like does he have fans?
@@ChuckwaldMartin "Like does he have fans?" then why are you even commenting bro? you clearly don't know anything surrounding the paul brothers and yet you wanna say something like "i think he deserved a temporary ban". they have been scamming people since and selling garbage energy drinks to their pre pubescent fanbases. if showing a dead body doesn't deserve a lifetime ban on a platform then idk what will.
@@ChuckwaldMartinI'd say scamming your massive audience of children is permaban worthy
Logan : I'm going to sue Coffeezilla.
Every lawyer on UA-cam : that's a stupid idea.
*meanwhile Logan's Lawyers typing out the bill*
Logal Paul been sipping too much of that prime me thinks.
@@earthtaurus5515 Narcissists have been given way too much spot light with the internet and social media :/
So Coffeezilla retains a legal team with an established reputation where the case will give them more free publicity. They should send Paul a fruit basket for all the attention they'll be getting from this, none of which will probably be negative since all of that will be on Paul. Not to mention other channels that might benefit from commenting on the case.
Good on Logan Paul for bringing people together once again.
Lawyers representing Paul: Money me. Money now. Me a money needing a lot now.
TL;DR: There are a lot of comments saying "How did this company run away with the code for this awesome game? Poor Logan... Why couldn't they just steal a copy??"... Logan said "we're investing a million dollars creating a game!", then had this software dev company burn half a million over many months, without paying them anything, and they justifiably pulled the plug and severed the relationship; Logan's company never deserved access to the code.
I've been a corporate and large-contract software engineer for 25y, plus I watched all of CoffeeZilla's vids on this right after he released them, and the company did nothing inappropriate or out of the ordinary. They were contracted to build this game, but he wasn't paying them anything while they developed it---no money up-front either---and there were only promises of money coming soon, so OF COURSE in that case a dev is going to keep their source code GIT repos private, and the client wouldn't have any access to it until they pay for the time which was invested up until that point. The dev said they were spending approximately $60k/mo, iirc, and after many months (6-12? can't recall.) they just said that was enough and pulled out of it, because the promises of money being given to them never materialized and they were just bleeding money paying their devs internally. It was a very stupid decision by that developer to take a job without at least some payment per month or a retainer/partial up-front; that's very odd in our field, or only done for trusted longterm clients.
So, basically, some of you are saying (naively I guess -- no offense meant) that "Why didn't they just have access to copies of the code so they could steal the work that this other company spent half a million dollars creating, without paying for it???"
If they were getting paid for their time per month, to create code owned by the client, then yes the client would/should have immediate access to it -- but that wasn't the case here.
That actually explains a lot!
Thanks ^^
I love how the pitch for the NFT game was "it'll be kids first taste of... ... gambling"

As an attorney, allow me to translate this comment from Mr. Bankston.
Comment: "My partner Bill Ogden and I have agreed to represent Coffeezilla in this very exciting suit."
Translation: "We are going to mop the floor with Logan Paul. The best possible defense is to prove that Logan Paul is a scammer, so that's what we're going to do -- in open court, where reporters can hear every single detail. We're especially excited about discovery, because, let's be honest, we might uncover enough evidence for criminal charges to be filed."
Lol!!
That final point is why I feel for many public interest cases like this, there should be no option to settle out of court. Every document, every email, every communication, needs to be public record so that scams can be identified, analysed and countered. Settling is far too often used to cover up wrongdoing, and if I had any legal authority I'd have it that any and all documents raised in say discovery would also be public record immediately for the same societal benefit. Imagine the effect of companies thinking "no we can't do this shady thing as if anyone sues us at all, it'll all go public"
He said this is their first time defending defamation. Such a large deviation from their norm is very telling. Logan is cooked.
@@kelly4187you could have 3/5 of the country and its senators vote on it, sadly it would never get enacted due to lobbying.
Yeah, it really goes to Devin's comment about not filing frivolous suits. Not only because it is unethical, but because it can also work counter to your own self interest. It is highly probable that if this was in fact an intentional scam, then documentation of Logan Paul's intent could come to light during discovery.
Man that is solid linking Coffee’s Patreon. Good man.
I love how they've just given up on modest titles and are fully just saying "this is dumb".
They do it when they know they could fight it in court.
@lw8882 when a legal team have literally called logan a POS in the thubmnail they must feel pretty confident 😂

@@fssstyuniafhave you seen the scams? He is a POS that’s prove-able in court 😂😂
@@lw8882not just fight it but win in a landslide😂 its especially easily when logan praised coffee for calling him out😂
Suing an investigative reporter is generally a good way to tell the world you're guilty of everything they've said and a whole lot more they haven't found yet.
Yeah, it's like flinging poop at a fan, on high speed, aimed directly at you.
Absolutely true in many cases
As long as they're a reputable reporter, yes. Some reporters spend their who careers just lying or misrepresenting things. NY post does this constantly, as an example
@NoName-lq6vw then you show how shit they are at their job by exposing them for free.
Also, Logan only make people remember about Cryptozoo this way. If he just keep quiet (like scammers usually do) most people would forget and move on.
I never expected to see a lawyer publicly call someone a "POS", but here we are.
I think he secretly wants logan to try a defamation suit against him, just to stretch his legal legs.
@@agingerredhead9380 Then we'd have to define what POS means. Person of substance? Panties on stupid? Purveyor of smiles?
@dangerbirb4981 I looked it up and it says point of sale but that isn't what they're trying to say about the suicide forest poster and scammer extraordinaire Logan Paul
@@dangerbirb4981 I don't think something as simple as that would fly. No sane judge would let you pretend that something that very clearly has a commonly understood meaning, which is used in the correct context, is instead some random other thing.
A lot more likely that it's just "k, that's just an insult, let's move on and be civil now at least".
And I never expected a 70 year old Hulk Hogan to rip his shirt off at a Republican National Convention, but here we are!
"This thing I put my name on & heavily marketed is a scam, but it's defamation to claim I am responsible for this scam" is a real winning legal strategy, I bet.
Fox Entertainment would beg to differ
So first he called Coffeezilla out because he attacked him, then said Coffeezilla is a good journalist who does good work, and NOW he's suing him after all because Coffee is not gonna forget about his scams?
Can't forget him using Coffee's investigation results as evidence in his own lawsuit.
@@TarodanI mean, one way or another that would end up as evidence in the lawsuit. Preemptively strawmanning the defense's argument is his best bet to win.
Not that it will, but it's not the worst idea here
Coffee is RELENTLESS when fighting for victims of scams- which is why we love him really.
@@magicball3201
Except in this case, he is using coffee’s investigation to support his own points.
So that’s slightly different.
Paul is suing simply for petty revenge. Now that Paul is flush with Prime money he doesn't give a shit about his online reputation. Something he did care a little bit about before then when his main form of income was his online audience.
Paul is going to make this lawsuit happen as slowly as he can possibly make it to draw as much legal costs out of Coffeezilla as he can and then he'll drop the suit.
I watched Coffeezilla's original videos, and I can assure Logan Paul that they did not make me think any less of him. There was no lower point to reach.
We’re probably not his core target audience. Logan must be dealing with parents finally search his name before buying his scams and finding Coffeezilla’s videos. 😂
My opinion of Logan paul was already at bedrock, but coffeezilla brought me a bedrock breaker.
@@TechBirb When hitting rock bottom, reach for pickaxe and shovel 😂
There is always lower. He hasn't been convicted of a crime. I would not be surprised if he has a body count from people driven to despair by his scams.
@@oohhboy-funhouse even conviction couldn't make me think less of him than i do now. Plus, I have zero faith in the US justice system to convict a rich white grifter of anything .......

Is baffling
As a software dev myself, someone being able to flee and "hold the source code hostage" is INSANE??
There is no way the team wasn't using some sort of source/version control, and if they weren't that is almost crazier than someone holding it hostage.
Not a single other person on the team had their own copy of the source code??
I was thinking the same thing. Someone whoever is developing this game doesn't know how to use Git? Did they not have working code before this developer fled or whatever? Could they not replicate whatever changes he took with his local device? Did this dev had ALL the source code in his local machine, and it was inaccessible to EVERYONE else in the team?
A simple game like this can be made by every game dev in a short time. No sourcecode needed.
@@Triggernlfrl Um... do you know what source code is?
@@Triggernlfrl I'm not sure if this is satire, but I don't think either statements you said are true. The first one can't be verified cause we never saw the game. But you know every game (digitally) has a source code right? Even if you code using so-called "no coding required" things like visual blocks, they still compile to code? By definition anything that can be run on a digital device has computer code
@@Triggernlfrl I'm assuming you meant source control since every program has source code in some form or another, but no matter how small or easy the standard software practice is to use source/version control regardless of team size or complexity of the project.
Any product like this should have some form of release vs development versions, and that is another use case of source/version control.
If the dev(s) of this game did not use source control that would astound me.
There are a number of ways in which a malicious dev could actually get away "stealing the source code" if acting alone:
1. They have their own version of the source, and the one they present to Logan and his team is fake. This would make Logan think he has access to the source when it is just bogus.
2. Keep the source to themselves without ever actually showing or giving Logan access to it.
3. Host the source code as normal and give Logan access, then take it down and ask for ransom.
If they attempt #3, then Logan can reach out to whatever site was hosting the repository (GitHub, Bitbucket etc) and ask them to give him an archived version of it. This has happened before and is not impossible to recover from.
If they attempt #2, then this is just malpractice and poor management from Logan and his team, as this should have been a red flag from the beginning. Especially if the dev is just some random guy.
If they attempt #1, this would be the easiest one to get away with. Everything would look good from Logan's POV until the dev drops the axe. However, Logan would still bear some responsibility as he should have been building and testing the source on his end to ensure that things were still working smoothly and progress was being made.
This is not universally done, but normally actual software consulting firms are contracted out, and they are legally accountable and are also not likely to rug pull you without a legally viable reason, and even then they would do some form of compensation that would have been agreed upon in the contract. If Logan just sourced some sketchy dudes to get this done AND didn't due his due diligence AND had investors money on the line he definitely has some responsibility there.
Still this is mostly conjecture, and there could be a real reason that Logan is totally a victim here, but I find it unlikely that he bears no fault.
Logan is the type of narcissist to send $5.8 million defending his scummy actions than spend $1.8 million in reparations to victims to make things right. I really wish a couple of good UA-cam lawyers like yourself would help to represent coffeezilla. Having an entire team of attorneys would help coffee crush Logan in court and Logan would think twice before pulling this crap again. It would make great content for your channel if nothing else and I’m sick of scammers suing people for exposing them because they know the person can’t afford to fight them.

I would love if a valid defense to a lawsuit like this would be “your reputation is already garbage, I can’t have made it worse”.
The truth is technically a defense 😅
this is actually a valid defense in court, and it is used
There is a former baseball player who has lost definition cases on the grounds that his reputation cannot be tarnished further.
As was stated, this is ACTUALLY a defense - Lenny Dykstra had this happen to him, he claimed a former teammate / current broadcaster defamed him by claiming Dykstra had yelled racial slurs at a pitcher before the pitcher tok the mound. Dykstra's terrible reputation was even made worse *by himself* in his autobiography, where he claimed to be willing to do even illegal things to help his team win. He was impossible to defame, in other words.
That was actually used with Nathan Leopold of the infamous Leopold and Loeb murder case: "In 1959, Leopold sought to block production of the film version of _Compulsion_ on the grounds that Levin's book had invaded his privacy, defamed him, profited from his life story and 'intermingled fact and fiction to such an extent that they were indistinguishable.' Eventually, the Illinois Supreme Court ruled against him, holding that Leopold, as the confessed perpetrator of the 'crime of the century,' could not reasonably argue that any book had injured his reputation."

Failing to make money off of a scam does not mean you didn't run a scam. That just means you're not a great scammer. Or in this case you got scammed first by the scammers you brought on as partners before you got a chance to harvest your victims.
The simple fact that they allowed the tokens and coins to be minted and traded WAAAAAY ahead of there being anything near a functional game is more than enough to show that this was always, first, and foremost about making money.
All good points.
Logan Paul did make money, though, so he can't use this particular excuse :P
Scammer-ception
While studying journalism we learned about a precedent where particularly infamous celebrities with bad enough reputations often can't sue for libel due to the reputation being too bad at the start to prove any "damages" in changes to public perception. This seems like a textbook example.
So I’m not a lawyer (though I take the bar in just over a week!) but what you’re talking about are so-called “defamation-proof” plaintiffs, where the individual’s reputation is so bad they could not possibly claim any damages.
I don’t know how this works in Texas, but because Logan Paul is claiming per se damages for libel, he likely wouldn’t need to prove up damages and the defamation-proof argument wouldn’t need to come in. I’d still argue it in the alternative if I were Coffeezilla’s attorney, but that will come after what is probably a long series of waivable defenses.
Lack of personal and subject matter jurisdiction and failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted are the obvious choices here.
Crazy that if you sue someone and lose that lawsuit that you are not required to pay their legal fees. It would really make people think twice before suing for insane shit.
A scammer is someone who takes millions from his fans when his product isn't even finished and then whines about being called a scammer.

There's nothing to harm!
Right? His entire reputation is that he is a low-life greedy scammer and generally awful person.
I fail to see how telling people that a scammer that is actively scamming everyone around himself, is supposed to harm his 'reputation'.
By that same logic, you can sue people for defamation if someone tells the world that you're a murderer, because it makes it harder for you as a professional murderer to actively kill people.
As Tyrion stated.
I am not doubting your reputation I am denying its existence.
Real legal response, defamation requires a dozen things to be true, including "harmful things were said about the defendant" and "the harmful things said were false" and "the defendant lost things (money, opportunities) due to harm to their reputation as a direct result of these harmful, untruthful things"

If Paul spent half as much on the refunds as he did on lawyers and marketing, this wouldn't even be a problem for him anymore.
It's baffling. You would think, for the greed levels of a scammer like Logan, he would do what costs less money. It would cost him less money and give him more clout, and Coffee would never bring up the situation again. Yet against what's practical and would be less money, Logan does this and drags on the situation. Bizarre levels of narcissism. Psychologists need to spend more time studying human ego. It's clearly more powerful than even greed and reputation. I'd bet he's willing to spend any amount of money just to crush Coffee, even if the legal fees go beyond what he made from the scam in the first place.
He would literally walks away with maybe a few praise if he actually refund the victim but no he choose the worst option and bring his already non-existent reputation to the ground

Imagine what Satoshi Nakamoto would say after seeing what's become of his invention. He wanted anonymous transactions to fight the system and they turned it into scammy financial products or even worse fed coin.
Any time Logan Paul says "trust me", anyone within earshot should reflexively check to make sure they still have their wallet.
and, also, should assume anything that precedes it and follows it is a bald faced lie
I would check if he walked within 50 metres of me.
Probably lock the gates to your ancestral burial grounds to be safe.
With spending as much time online as we do these days, it's easy to forget that there are genuinely good people like Coffeezilla & LegalEagle still out there fighting the good fight. Well done gents!
Curate your feed, man. Loads of intelligent and good people on the internet, you just gotta filter the toxic ones out. Click the "not interested" or "do not recommend channel" buttons, be the change you want to see in your feed.
I never forget and I enjoy watching people fall or stagnate in ignorance, like Wings, Darksydephil, and King Cobra JFS.
Love that "don't contact my manager, contact me" clip. Because of course, managers never pass on phone messages.
