BRIAN FRANCE'S SECRET LEGAL TROUBLES

Posted 11/15/09 at 2:30 PM PST by Joe Donatelli | Email This |

The Charlotte Observer reports that NASCAR chairman Brian France is fighting a doozy of a lawsuit involving his ex-wife, and his lawyers are going to "extraordinary" lengths to keep the case from the public. The Observer reports, "It's unclear exactly what the dispute involves, but the matter is being heard in family court and apparently involves domestic issues."

France filed a civil complaint in North Carolina against his ex-wife, Megan. I would tell you what it entails, but France's lawyers have managed to pervert the idea of open government. France's lawyers are seeking to bar the public from the courtroom as arguments in the case unfold. What is known is that a confidentiality agreement is at the heart of the case, and publicizing certain information "would cause huge adverse effects for Mr. France," according to lawyer Kary Watson.

France's lawyers say that giving access to one newspaper (The Observer) will cause the case to become a "public spectacle" that will harm their client, whom they then unwittingly likened to one of the Three Little Pigs. Said Watson, pointing to a reporter in the courtroom, "They're here; they want to know what is going on. The big, bad wolf is blowing at the door.”

I won't speculate about the details of the case, and frankly I don't care about the man's personal life, but I will point out, with my trademark understatement, that France's own NASCAR spent a good portion of 2009 publicly dragging driver Jeremy Mayfield's name through the mud. It did so using the nation's court systems, knowing full well the massive attention court documents would receive from the media.

So, who's afraid of the big, bad wolf?

(Sorry. Had to do it.)

Brian France...olbz....thought it funny that JEREMY MAYFIELD should be called a druggie.....So what is wrong with him, olbz,... being called a drunk or queer, and marriage cheater?
Yes it was fun for him to make Jeremy's life horible with the drugg lies...now that we can know that he cheated, has strange bedfellows,drinks the bar dry...he doesn't like that? Well olbz...most people are saying that you have ruined racing...look at the empty seats at a race....you have your favorites of course. Personally I hope that Megan takes you to the money cleaners...for you so deserve it.olbz...you get back what you give out...and it's time that you do get back the hurt and crap you do.

To anonymous 2: You're correct, technically speaking, sort of.

Keep in mind that in "web comment functions" like this one, the IP-address only shows up for the site publishers and that is only if the site-builder have programmed the comment function to do so.
'
Remember that there is no law that requires any website publisher to store IP-addresses hitting on a website or are used in a comment function such as this.
'
Without that kind of storage, any court order is a moot point.
'
I'm sure mr. Donatelli and his crew are well aware of that fact.

Psst, surely you know this isn't anonymous, that they can get a court order and track you thru your IP address that was recorded when you made that "anonymouse" post. It's gonna suck losing your job.

At the risk of losing my job, I'll confirm what you might have already guessed.

Brian France is a homosexual. The confidentiality agreement is "supposed" to cover his bedroom activities, such as the men he dates, and the fact that he is married to a women as his cover.

The team here is extremely worried, that Nascar fans would leave in droves if his ex-wife were to tell about his exploits with men which she has threatened to do on multiple occasions.

I know you can't trust an anonymous source, however I could provide hard evidence backing up my claim.

Good work reporting on something that the mainstream media ignored.
