IN THE FEDERAL COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CIVIL ACTION

Atreides Clients (Class Action Group)
Plaintiff

V.

Atreides
Defendant


COMPLAINT
The Plaintiff complains against the Defendant as follows:
About 2 weeks ago, the CEO of Atreides, antilethal, went missing. As a result of this, every Atreides client was unable to do anything with their money until now. The only way clients were able to get their money was by the government stepping in to right the ship. No matter what excuse antilethal has for being gone, antilethal has many employees at Atreides, however, none of them were given the power to complete transactions. Many things could have been done differently to prevent this, and these clients deserve compensation.

I. PARTIES
1. csimiami14 (Plaintiff)
2. Arctic_fox10 (Plaintiff)
3. bibsfi4a (Plaintiff)
4. Justa_Dumpling (Plaintiff)
5. NotPhunky (Plaintiff)
6. Dartanman (Plaintiff)
7. Mask3D_WOLF (Plaintiff)
8. Bombaz2005 (Plaintiff)
9. got_the_goat (Plaintiff)
10. MegaMinerM (Plaintiff)
11. Nexalin (Plaintiff)
12. Jimmyboy2009915 (Plaintiff)
13. Atreides (Defendant)

II. FACTS
1. antilethal was last heard from over 2 weeks ago.
2. Over the past 2 weeks, no client has been able to deposit or withdraw money from Atreides.
3. Atreides clients have had their money frozen in the bank for over 2 weeks.
4. No Atreides employees are able to complete transactions other than antilethal.

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF
1. According to the Commercial Standards Act, Atreides Bank is classified as a commercial bank. However, a commercial bank must return their clients deposits to them when requested by the client. Atreides has failed to uphold that responsibility, and has left their clients without access to their own money for weeks.

IV. PRAYER FOR RELIEF
1. The Court to order the Department of Commerce to strip Atreides of its Financial Institution status.
2. $15,000 in punitive damages to be paid to each Plaintiff in this case.
3. $10,000 for The Loss of Enjoyment in Redmont to be paid to each Plaintiff in this case.
4. 30% of total case value in legal fees

V. MOTION TO AMEND
As more people join this lawsuit, I request permission to to amend the list of Plaintiffs and the Prayer for Relief as more people continue to join this lawsuit.


By making this submission, I agree I understand the penalties of lying in court and the fact that I am subject to perjury should I knowingly make a false statement in court.

Verdict


IN THE FEDERAL COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
VERDICT


Atreides Clients (Class Action Group) v. Atreides [2024] FCR 87

I. PLAINTIFF'S POSITION
1. The plaintiffs allege that due to the disappearance of Atreides' CEO, antilethal, they were unable to access their funds held by Atreides Bank for over two weeks.

II. DEFENDANT'S POSITION
1. Atreides' defense has not formally responded to the allegations or presented a defense in this matter.

III. THE COURT OPINION

Verdict


  1. This default ruling is based on the information presented by the parties and matters commonly known to the public.
  2. As a commercial bank, Atreides has a duty to allow its depositors to withdraw funds within a reasonable timeframe. Failure by Atreides to provide funds upon depositor request constitutes grounds for damages.
  3. The class action suit failed to substantiate the existence of any account holders or provide proof of attempts to contact the bank for fund retrieval. This serves as a reminder that all pertinent evidence must be included in the initial complaint. While discovery can introduce NEW evidence, in this default judgment, the court must base its decision solely on the evidence presented.

IV. DECISION
In the matter of FCR 87, I rule in
favor of the Plaintiff with a modified prayer for relief.
  1. I hereby order the Department of Commerce to strip Atreides of its Financial Institution status.
  2. Legal Fees of $1,000 awarded to itsBlazeX.
  3. I do not grant any additional prayers for relief due to the lack of sufficient evidence regarding the existence of accounts.

The Federal Court thanks all involved.

Due to this SCR Appeal, I will be reopening this case. @itsBlazeX, you have 24 hours to present any additional evidence you wish to be considered before this court makes a verdict. Please keep this evidence neat; I recommend using the Spoiler feature for organization. I will be striking my previous verdict from the record to allow for a new one after the evidence is submitted.

Verdict


IN THE FEDERAL COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
VERDICT


Atreides Clients (Class Action Group) v. Atreides [2024] FCR 87

I. PLAINTIFF'S POSITION
1. The plaintiffs allege that due to the disappearance of Atreides' CEO, antilethal, they were unable to access their funds held by Atreides Bank for over two weeks.

II. DEFENDANT'S POSITION
1. Atreides' defense has not formally responded to the allegations or presented a defense in this matter.

III. THE COURT OPINION

  1. This default ruling is based on the information presented by the parties and matters commonly known to the public.

  2. As a commercial bank, Atreides has a duty to allow its depositors to withdraw funds within a reasonable timeframe. Failure by Atreides to provide funds upon depositor request constitutes grounds for damages.

  3. The class action provided proof of account holders, allowing the court to award damages to each individual who struggled to access their funds. While two weeks is a significant period to be without access to money, the court must determine, “What constitutes outrageous conduct in this case?” The court has determined that the CEO's gross negligence and lack of contingency planning for their absence are the primary issues. The CEO's failure to have a plan, notify depositors of their absence, and ensure timely fund withdrawals constitutes clearly outrageous conduct.

  4. While the court may never know why the CEO left, it is evident that the absence was not intended to harm depositors. Consequently, the punitive damages awarded will be less than requested.

  5. Regarding compensation for loss of enjoyment, the court recognizes that loss of enjoyment is defined as “situations in which an injured party loses their ability to engage in certain activities in the way that the injured party did before the harm. Loss of enjoyment in Redmont damages may be proven by witness testimony, reasonable person tests, or any other mechanism the presiding Judge considers persuasive.” Although a full trial is ideal for determining such damages, applying the Reasonable Person standard legal test, the court concludes that a reasonable person would recognize that financial stability and access to one's funds are crucial for daily life and enjoyment.

IV. DECISION
In the matter of FCR 87, I rule in favor of the Plaintiff with a modified prayer for relief.
  1. I hereby order the Department of Commerce to strip Atreides of its Financial Institution status.
  2. $10,000 to be paid to each the following Plaintiffs for the outrageous conduct of the bank: NotPhunky, Nexalin, Justa_Dumpling, csimiami14, bibsfi4a, Arctic_Fox10, Dartanman, Bombaz2005, Mask3D_WOLF and got_the_goat.
  3. An additional $5,000 to be paid to each of the Plaintiffs listed above for their loss of enjoyment.
  4. $40,000 to be paid in legal fees to itsBlazeX.

The Federal Court thanks all involved.
