"You've Got Mail"

Dear Mr Westergren,

With all due respect to you and your clients Carlos Garcia & Ben L Blanco; please, by all means continue with the due process. It will be a fresh start for DMC. At least finally, we will be able to witness the Due Process work at Del Mar, for once without it being thwarted. Now, as an extravagantly compensated (overpaid) Attorney (In House Counsel) I am sure you are aware that Defamation, Libel and Slander are not applicable when the published statements are true.

Definitions of slander on the Web: words falsely spoken that damage the reputation of another aspersion: an abusive attack on a person's character or good name defame: charge falsely or with malicious intent; attack the good name and reputation of someone; "The journalists have defamed me!" "The article in the paper sullied my reputation" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notice the key word is falsely. What you term slander in the written world is termed LIBEL Defamation of an individual or individuals in a published work, with malice aforethought.

• In litigation, the falsity of the libel ous statements or representations, as well the intention of malice, has to be proved for there to be libel.

In addition, financial damages to the parties so libeled must be incurred as a result of the material in question for there to be an assessment of the amount of damages to be awarded to a claimant. ...
