The on-going saga involving a motion to dismiss in the on-going lawsuit between Christopher “Denver Metro Audits” Cordova and Jonathan “Frauditor Troll” Huneault may be coming to an end as the Judge in the case has announced she has canceled a motion hearing to hear the dismissal on Friday.
Judge Virginia K. DeMarchi wrote, “On December 18, 2025, the parties jointly filed a stipulated request to appear remotely at the January 13, 2026 hearing on defendants’ pending motion to dismiss (Dkt. No. 43). Dkt. No. 50. Having reviewed the moving and responding papers filed with respect to the motion, the Court finds that the motion is suitable for determination without oral argument. Accordingly, the Court vacates the January 13, 2026 hearing and will decide the motion on the papers. See Civil L.R. 7-1(b).
This order terminates Dkt. No. 50 as moot.”
The order is concerning as the controversy regarding the motion to dismiss was raging all of last week, and should be considered a bad sign for said motion to dismiss.
Huneault’s attorney, “Superstar” Steven Vondran filed the motion to dismiss in November, after being warned by Judge DeMarchi that she was in no mood for another motion to dismiss at the time, after his first attempt forgot to name Nneka Ohiri, Huneault’s wife and the second defendant in the case.
This resulted in attorney That Randall S. “The Unhinged Attorney” Newman, Esq., immediately filing to hold Ohiri in default, since Vondran didn’t bother to name her in the motion to dismiss.
There was some drama behind the scenes, and the motion for default was removed in exchange for Newman to file an amended complaint. The damage had been done to Vondran’s then sterling reputation and one expected what would come next.
Vondran, for the second time, appeared quite oblivious to the fact that he provided a spirited, if flawed, motion to dismiss and completely ignored Ohiri for the second time along with new defendant Huneault’s 14693663 Canada Inc.
This time Newman waited a couple of weeks then filed both his response to the motion to dismiss and to hold Ohiri in default for a second time.
The response from Huneault was outrage, blaming Newman for not telling Vondran that forgot Ohiri for a second time before filing the default. Huneault said he would hold his attorney responsible for the error but took little responsibility for approving the path forward that included the mistake for a second time.
In those same three weeks, Huneault has also focused his public focus on a dubiously sourced video that supposedly has granted him the ability to use Cordova’s works in perpetuity. He made no effort to authenticate the video. Without that authentication, he would be unable to use it in court for his motion to dismiss.
Following Huneault’s public outbursts blaming Newman for Vondran’s errors, Newman also made it clear that he would withdraw his default motion if Vondran would simply file a defense of Ohiri. Something that would do more to help Huneault’s case than hurt it.
There’s been back and forth between the sides, which seems to have ended when DeMarchi made her ruling on Friday. While technically, both sides could file motions before her ruling, the fact that she canceled the hearing for the motion to dismiss and is willing to rule on what’s in front of her seems to indicate that this motion is doomed.
It is unlikely that DeMarchi will rule this week. Attorney Newman is scheduled to appear on ReallyCoolNews’ Boxing Day livestream on Friday, December 26, 2025.
Huneault’s on-going efforts to raise money to help him defend himself from Cordova’s lawsuit lost a dollar on Friday, due to a change in interest rates between USD and CAD.
No gains were noticed for any campaigns that we follow on Sunday.
Finally, his campaign saw no gains on Monday, as the entire market was filled with goose eggs.
Update: On Monday, both sides came together and filed a joint stipulation to set aside Newman’s filing of default against Ohiri. In exchange for setting aside the default, “Superstar” Vondran will file a written defense for Ohiri in the next 14 days should the court agree to the stipulation.
