Zimmerman Surrenders – No Sanction Hearing
The Orlando Sentinel reports that paperwork has been filed at the Seminole County criminal courthouse setting forth that Zimmerman says he is giving up his promised fight to make the state pay his legal bills and the hearing on sanctions based on allegations that the State violated rules of discovery.
The docket sheet provides that on February 20, 2014, a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal of Any Future Hearings and All Pending Issues was filed in Zimmerman’s criminal case.
On February 25, 2014, Assistant State’s Attorney Richard Mantei filed papers asking the judge to deny Zimmerman’s request and to rule in Corey’s favor, saying that he wants the hearing to resume “to make a complete record and establish the state committed no discovery violations….”
The defense alleged that the State did not provide them with photos discovered on Trayvon’s cell phone. Subsequently, Judge Nelson denied the defense’s request to use those photos at trial and also denied that text messages from Trayvon Martin’s cell phone be presented as evidence. There was no witness to testify as to the intent of the photos and text messages to support nor refute the defense’s contentions as to Trayvon’s character. At least one of the photos, showing only a hand, did not present the individual’s identity.
If Judge Nelson grants Zimmerman’s request to dismiss all pending matters, she will then proceed in the case of Zimmerman v. NBC. That case was put on hold by stipulation until after Zimmerman’s criminal trial. At the last status hearing, Judge Nelson denied that the case proceed because of the matters still pending in the criminal case.
If Judge Nelson denies Zimmerman’s request, then she will more than likely schedule a hearing on the sanctions. The question then becomes, will Mark O’Mara and/or Don West proceed? O’Mara has already withdrawn his representation from the lawsuit against NBC.
In the same article, the Orlando Sentinel reports that the judge in Shellie Zimmerman’s divorce case has set aside the default order. That means that George can now argue for division of marital debts, the dogs, and any future assets he might acquire from his lawsuit against NBC.

Why would Judge Nelson deny his request?
LikeLike
It would help if I saw the State’s opposition to it. Requests for sanctions against the State impugns the State’s credibility and it appears that is what Mantei is saying for his reason for wanting to defend. Since the verdict, O’Mara does not provide documents filed in the case and I suppose that the media is no longer going to spend money to get copies.

“In another legal development involving Zimmerman, a judge has set aside a default entered in favor of his wife, Shellie, in their ongoing divorce.
That means the two sides are back to equal footing as they fight to divide up property but mostly the overwhelming debt they face because of George Zimmerman’s legal bills.”

Mindy, I’m thinking the state has a right to protect its self from the allegations and support its contention that there wasn’t any intent to withhold evidence. In moving to an end, if Judge Nelson does proceed, which the state wants, it would in effect put the matter to rest, in writing.
And even though Judge Nelson had ruled on the inadmissibility of what the defense felt was evidence against Trayvon – which I feel was character assassination at the onset and without merit, Zimmerman’s defense leveled a serious charge against the state. I think O’Mara has some explaining to do though I think he’ll be a bit more judicious in his comments about the matter of moving forward with the sanctions as being Zimmerman’s desire.
In some respects, I feel Zimmerman is forced now to be heard on the default matter in his divorce. It’s rather provocative because Shellie is seeking a portion of known and unknown assets for division and in all likely hood, this includes monies Zimmerman potentially could receive from the pending NBC suit. It will be interesting to see if Zimmerman has a valid reason for not responding within the 20 day response limit which has forced it into default in Shellie’s favor. The question now is, will they allow him to be heard based on his reasoning for not responding. I think there’s a possibility he’ll drop that suit as well – to spite Shellie.
I wonder how Zimmerman feels now – about being ostracized. What goes around comes around.

Why was the default order set aside in the divorce?

I really don’t understand what setting it aside actually means. Is that good for Shellie or George?
LikeLike
Chris,
A default judgment is entered when the defendant/respondent fails to timely file an answer to the complaint that originated the case. I’m unsure about Florida’s rules in family cases but in some states, a dissolution of marriage entered by default dissolves the marriage but reserves other issues, such as division of property, debts, and assets.
Setting aside the default judgment allows the respondent to litigate the issues of division of debts, assets, etc. so that the court decides based on the merits.
For instance, Shellie wants George to get a life insurance policy; she wants both dogs; for George to pay half of the marital debts; and if he prevails on the NBC lawsuit, to give her half of the proceeds.
George wants to dispute those issues. By setting the default judgment aside, the court can now hear his side.
LikeLike
I think I can provide some more clarity on this, if I may be indulged. There are a couple of key fundamental concepts that should be understood:
First, from a legal philosophy perspective, results “on the merits” are much more preferred – and, thus, much more favored – than results “by default.” Therefore, courts are inclined to set aside defaults whenever a defendant provides any feasible or conceivable (even if weak) justification to do so. So, plaintiffs can rarely rely comfortably on default-related actions.
Second, the “default” process entails TWO very distinct and different steps (at least in my state and in Florida**).
>> Step A is the “ENTRY OF DEFAULT,” which is typically a clerical function, although it can also be a court/judge function. It really doesn’t mean much of anything. I picture it as something like a “bookmark” – marking a point in time by which the defendant was required to respond, but failed to do so. An “entry of default” is very easy to overcome by a defendant, and – as I understand it – this is as far as Shellie had gotten before CAC appeared in their divorce case.
>> Step B would entail filing a motion for a “DEFAULT JUDGMENT.” The motion requires a hearing (as far as I know) and also invokes other requirements necessary for the judge (1) to evaluate the appropriateness of a default judgment and (2) to determine what the contents of such a judgment should be.
It’s my understanding that there was no “default judgment” or “order” to be set aside in the Zimmerman divorce case. There was merely an “entry of default” – and those are worth about as much as the paper they’re written on. (CAVEAT: I haven’t seen the actual court filings to confirm my understanding.)

I live in Florida and most default judgements filed due to tardy responses in divorce cases are set aside. Actually, most default rulings in all cases are set aside. There is one exception and this is ironclad. If an appeal is filed one second after the 30 days allowed it is always denied. No exceptions to this. Answer an appeal within 30 days or don’t bother.
So Mr. Sims had told Shellie to expect this. Now, the big question is, whom will tubs find to represent him pro bono. Because it is clear he doesn’t pay anyone ever. And I don’t believe any attorney will take his case to gain credibility. Jane weintaub has already withdrawn from his DV case involving honey pot. And on twitter he seems pissy at her…telling his followers to tell her to go to bed. We woman so love having our boyfriends treat us like children especially in public.;-)

Now Z is going to attend a gun show.
March 5, 2014
Gladys and I would like to take this opportunity to express our support regarding George’s decision to attend a local gun show.
We asked George about his motivation for attending, his explanation reinforced the great pride we have for George. George explained that the show’s sponsor had supported him and his rights immediately following his acquittal. George felt a debt of gratitude to the sponsor and feels he should appear in person to thank his supporters.
It is my understanding this is a private event closed to the press, with absolutely no media availability. This event will simply provide George the opportunity to meet and greet those who stood with him during the most difficult time of his life. We understand George’s perspective and appreciate that he maintains the morals and values we have instilled in our children.
George’s attendance will not be compensated by the event’s sponsor.
Our love and support for George (@therealgeorgez) could not be stronger.

Remember, the cousin said there was someone else he did the same thing to, and I have an odd feeling it’s someone related as well. The physical and mental abuse go hand in hand. I believe I read that 75% of children whose parents were in abusive relationships will grow up and abuse others.

HEY!
Bullies are emotional extortioners. They make up things and threaten to present their lies as truth. Or, they take the truth and present it in a false, bad light. GZ worked in a job where he could obtain the personal and financial information of others. There’s no telling how many people he threatened with emotional extortion unless they did what he wanted.
It would not surprise me if Juror B37 did not do Maddy the same way — talk friendly to get some of her personal info, then use it to mock and demean her, then brag about who she knows giving Maddy the impression that if she made Juror B37 mad, her gang would do her harm.
Yes. Adults who were abused as children often do abuse their own children and partners. That’s because children learn that pain and fear controls them, so they grow up to use the same in effort to control others.

Geez. They don’t understand. It’s Zimmerman plus guns that causes the controversy.
For such a boycott to work, Zimmerman would need numerous, engaged supporters living in Orlando who can also afford to have their wedding and/or reception at the Majestic.

Z has also posted an incorrect number saying it was to the owner of the Majestic building when in fact it is to a Super Savor Pharmacy in Kissimmee. His “followers” started to constantly call the pharmacy to complain about Z’s “rights” over their cancelling of the event. I wonder how much business was lost due to his actions….lost manpower dealing with the calls, delayed prescriptions, etc. He still has the incorrect number up in a couple of his postings and when people tell him it’s a pharmacy he replies “that’s cute” as if they are playing games by denying who they really are.
A simple internet search of the phone number shows it is assigned to the pharmacy and his supporters talk about doxing…..lol.

No worries, was the project the watercolor? I contacted the Pharmacy via email and told them who was responsible for their phone problems and gave a screen shot of Z’s tweet.

GREAT!! Someone posted on Twitter that the Pharmacy is owned by the same group or person as the Majestic. I suppose that means in the lawsuit, that Majestic will be able to defend based on how one of their company’s was harassed due to Zimmerman tweeting the phone number.
He really did make a mess of things but as I’ve said previously, George Zimmerman is toxic.
