LegalBytesRecently, Logan Paul tried to keep some evidence out of the public eye and under a protective order, calling it "irrelevant" and intended only to "harm and embarrass" him. However, that evidence was just revealed in recent filings, and, it's not great for Paul. In this video, we're going over the newly revealed evidence.

In this video, we're going over the latest discovery fight between Logan Paul and Coffeezilla (which really shouldn't even be happening, tbh). Coffeezilla recently noticed depositions for three CryptoZoo investors, and Logan Paul's legal team is demanding that the depositions be in-person, even though the witnesses live halfway around the world and can't afford to fly to Texas, AND even though the parties have already done some other depositions remotely via Zoom.

In this video, we're talking about how Logan Paul may have just painted himself into a corner in his defamation case against Coffeezilla. Paul is seeking discovery from third party Don Holland (the class representative in the CryptoZoo class action case), and now, in order to get what he wants from Holland, he's going to need to help prove Coffeezilla's point in arguing that the two lawsuits should be tried in the same venue.

In this video, we're talking about Shannon Sharpe and the MeToo allegations made against him by a Jane Doe, who was later revealed to be OnlyFans creator Gabriella Zuniga. She filed an explosive lawsuit in April 2025, but in the first hearing, her lawyers were nowhere to be found.

Obviously, with the most recent developments (Baldoni's apparent decision not to refile his remaining claims), things look worse for him now than they did initially when the judge dismissed his claims. But there are other potential impacts of these developments as well, and some might surprisingly impact Lively's case. In this video, we're talking about litigation strategy and how Baldoni's setback might end up making things harder for Lively as well.
CONTEXT: Lively claims Baldoni sexually harassed her, then retaliated against her for complaining about the harassment by, among other things, trying to destroy her public image on social media. Baldoni, on the other hand, denies any harassment, and says Lively (and her husband Ryan Reynolds) are retaliating against him for putting up resistance against their efforts to usurp production of the movie.

🚨 CORECTION!! Someone in the comments pointed out an error in something I said in this video, and as embarrassing as it is, I need to make a correction. I said that, if LP invoked his Fifth Amendment right, the judge would need to give an instruction to the jury an instruction not to draw a negative criminal inference from that invocation. While that’s true in criminal cases, it actually isn’t the case when a party to a civil case invokes the Fifth. So actually, this is even worse for LP because, if he refuses to testify for this reason, the jury totally CAN draw a negative inference against him for it, which means they can assume it means he actually defrauded the CryptoZoo investors.
In other words, it’s actually even worse for LP than I originally thought. 🫠
Also, sorry for the “loose/lose” typo in the video! 😅

In this video, we're following up on our last one in the Logan Paul v. Coffeezilla defamation saga. Last time, we went over the newly revealed evidence that was previously marked confidential, and which Paul was trying to keep confidential under a protective order. Specifically, those were revelations that Paul was himself being investigated by the SEC and the FBI for his activities around CryptoZoo, and that the FBI's investigation is currently ongoing. In this follow-up, we're talking about a number of reasons why I think this this is particularly bad for Paul.

This video was filmed quite a bit ago, and due to some issues behind the scenes with our team, it was delayed in getting out to publishing. It's true that new developments have come out since, but I wanted to come out with this video nonetheless, because it gives some explanation of the process of what was actually going on here. The new developments, of course, include: the subpoena's withdrawal, the withdrawal of the Motion to Quash and Motion to Intervene, and a reported unmasking of the anonymous source who spoke with Bryan Freedman's office (namely, Taylor Swift's dad). If you want an update that addresses these new details, let us know in the comments below and if there's enough interest, we'll get something out as soon as possible!

Coffeezilla is requesting to move the case from federal court in San Antonio, TX to Austin, TX so it can be litigated more closely with the CryptoZoo class action case. On the way, he revealed some Logan Paul texts that appear to confirm Logan Paul's true motives in suing Coffeezilla.
