Affliction Files Motion to Dismiss Fedor Litigation, Plus an Examination of Allegations in Suit
MMAPayout previously discussed the basic facts surrounding the Emelianenko v. Affliction litigation and has now learned that Affliction filed what is known in federal court as a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss the case on the ground that Emelianenko and M-1 (to simplify, Fedor) have failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, basically arguing that even if the court looks at all the facts in the light most favorable to the plaintiffs, Fedor still has not made a legitimate case.
Affliction’s motion to dismiss in essence argues that the lawsuit is frivolous.
Affliction’s Tom Atencio told MMAPayout.com:
Affliction landed a serious blow to the Fedor and M-1 lawsuit by filing a motion to dismiss in federal court in response to the Russians’ complaint only eight days after being served. . . . The counter by Affliction goes to show Affliction does not intend to rollover and be extorted by the Russian visitors and how frivolous and meritless Affliction considers the allegations of their complaint.
