To Prove Defamation Case?
What Do You Have To Prove? There are two things you have to prove to be true in order to win a case of defamation of character in the court of law. First of all, you have to prove without a doubt that what was said or written about you is not true. Once you have proved that the statement is, in fact, false you have to prove that the other person said the false statement with the intent of causing you some form of harm.
The Fair Reporting Privilege is a defense to any claim of Defamation

The Fair Report Privilege applies to the information contained on this web site.

“[T]he fair report privilege has two requirements: (1) the report must be of an official proceeding; and (2) the report must be complete and accurate or a fair abridgment of the official proceeding. [Citation.] *** For a publication to be considered a fair abridgment, the report must convey to readers a substantially correct account of the official proceedings. [Citation.] A reporter is not privileged to make additions of his own that would convey a defamatory impression or to indict expressly or by innuendo the veracity or integrity of any of the parties. [Citation.] Finally, it is the accuracy of the summary, not the truth or falsity of the information being summarized, that is the benchmark of the privilege. [Citation.]” (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Eubanks, 397 Ill. App. 3d at 749 (citing Solaia Technology, LLC v. Specialty Publishing Co., 221 Ill. 2d 558, 588-90 (2006)). ¶ 30

I am so saddened, yet so relieved to find this. I am a non-lawyer, pro se litigant and have been defending myself against this firm for over 2 years. I won an appeal, am back on remand in that case, but they came in a tried to file a separate action against me while the appeal was pending review. They intentionally omitted me as a defendant to try and usurp the First District Appellate Court and enshroud my existence before the Trial Court.
I will now be filing a Complaint with the Illinois Attorney General, as I am sure that they will find that nothing has changed with age, and the sky's the limit when dealing with this firm and their underhanded tactics.
To fully grasp the magnitude of my scenario, see Cook County (District 2) cases 2017M200000 and 2018M2000793. There isn't enough comment space here for me to tell the whole story, but I promise you, it won't be a dull read.

Hi Jennifer. A few of us that have issues with KSN and we would like to compare notes. Is there a way to contact you?

I just got a letter from KSN last week alleging that over $800 in association fees are overdue on the townhouse I shared with my ex-husband while caring for him as he battled cancer and dementia!! As I was PoA and took over paying the bills, I also made sure that the mortgage and association fees were paid every month. I personally paid at the management (Nemanich Consulting) office on Caton Farm Rd. and always got a receipt until they closed it to the public from the pandemic, when we had to use a drop box in front. I considered canceled checks to be my receipts. Since I read my bank statements, I'm well aware that my checks were cashed but called the bank anyway to confirm. Tomorrow I'm picking up a printout of the cashed checks that were allegedly "missing" and forwarding all correspondence to my attorney.
On top of it, since I inherited the townhouse and the trust deed with my name was filed over 3 weeks before the date on KSN's letter, the "Living Trust" my ex had and to which KSN ascribes the delinquency is no more as he passed away in September and the Will was filed in October. No "due diligence" here! You would think they would have found that looking through the records! This firm is a joke. Anyone else thinking of taking these clowns to court? The mail fraud angle is really interesting to me as this seems to be exactly what I'm dealing with.
