In this Unpaid Debt case, Isabel asserts that Mortis Maximis had offered to buy the rights to documents from her personal archive for the purposes of making the Chamberlain documentary, and that she had provided the documents, but that Mortis Maximis never paid.
I call Mr. Alfred Spellburger, who was in charge of the project, to the stand.
Now, Mr. Spellburger, isn’t it true that at the time the project was still ongoing, that you were having an affair with the VP of Operations’ wife? Behind your spouse’s back? It seems to me that anyone willing to lie in their personal affairs would have no problem lying in their business affairs.
Hmmm, how can we trust the word of someone such as Mr. Spellburger? It also seems like it’s not the actual physical documents that were interesting to Mortis Maximis, but the rights to them, which they still retain.
This case is now closed. Isabel is the winner; the fine is $337,500.
