[Jason] Why I'm suing Mike Arrington

Mike told me over dinner that he didn't like to sign contracts, and didn't do so with his Crunchpad partners or me, because it gave him an advantage since a) nothing was documented and b) he's a lawyer. I should have known better -- but I guess that's why it's a "lesson."

Ouch. When a lawyer doesn't want to sign a contract, you should know something is up.

To Jason: best of luck at this. While I'm all for the underdog, I don't think you are making much of a case for your marketing ability in LAUNCH with this forward-to-friend.com "email". A more concise blog post with spelling, etc. corrected would have been a lot better. But, it's still interesting.

Update: Ugh, the same crappily formatted crap in the blog post: http://calacanis.com/2010/11/15/why-im-suing-mike-arrington/

This just got killed. Let's hope it will get killed even faster this time.

How do you downvote?? lol.

Arrington's version from almost two weeks ago: http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/03/at-my-wits-end-jason-calaca...

According to that post, they had a lawyer draft a written agreement to dissolve TC50, which they did. Jason doesn't own half of anything that was sold to anyone.

The possible downside of having a cofounder...
