Gay drama over poodle custody dispute

Miss Taylor Leighton.

R1 If that isn’t a Dollface, I don’t know what is!

Non-Paywalled

I feel like meth is an unmentioned third party in this story. Also, he doesn't really make a great case for the designer puppy mill, you are supposed to keep pups with their mom until they are at least 8 weeks old, not 6.

My favorite detail is how the mother used his childhood yorkipoo Charlie to control him, and how he vowed to never let it happen again.

The ex

Not sure how I’d feel about either of these drama queens representing me in a legal capacity.

R7, they’re probably both good at their jobs—they seem driven, obsessive and detail-oriented. You might not like those qualities in a life partner, of course. That poor dog . . .

I guess they don't get enough attention and face to face client time at their big law firm jobs so they had to do this. They both are sure to make partner now!

I suggest this thread be deleted, otherwise Muriel might face a lawsuit.

R10, this is all public information now.

Not a good impression for first-year associates right out of law school.

Leighton sounds like a nightmare. I don't condone taking people's pets, but get a fucking grip.

Two bossy bottoms.

The dog has its own Instagram. In Taylor’s profile, he asks people to follow “his daughter, the countess raven”

R8: “they’re probably both good at their jobs”

At least one of them is not. If you are an attorney at this age and have the time to file lawsuits over shit like this, it means you do not have enough billable hours. And that means you are not good at your job.

R15 - not to mention that no new or young associates should bring negative press and attention to their firm.

Leighton is out for blood and can't see straight. That's not a quality you want in an attorney.

I imagine dinner with these two is EXHAUSTING.

Naming your dog after Raven-Symoné might be gayer than engaging in the homosex.

Once this is settled, the victor should restructure his career and become a nationally known figure who only handles pet custody disputes. He can appear in TV commercials and solemnly vow, "If you were the one who took Miss Sissyboodles to the emergency vet while Stephen had brunch with his friends, I'll fight for you."

These are the types of queens I know I’ll never be friends with or get along with.

I feel like I owe former boyfriends an apology for thinking they were high maintenance pains in the ass. Send Raven back to MN, remove her chip, change her name to Nene & let her start over.

Can’t he just get another black miniature poodle?

200k in emotional damages plus the original cost of the dog plus future care PLUS ATTORNEY'S FEES??? There aren't enough MARYs in the world.

My dog breeder wouldn't let anyone take his pups till 10 weeks, R4. He said they need their mothers that long. If you take them at 8 weeks they can survive, but what they miss is that when they're that bit older their mother corrects them when they get out of line. So you get a better behaved puppy that is used to being told No, as well as a slightly better developed and more assured one.

They also can't have their final shots till they're about 14 weeks, so if you get them at 8 weeks their feet are not supposed to touch the ground outside your property for a tediously long time.

If they aren't yet partners at those law firms, they never will be.

I don't care how detail oriented they are, I don't want either of them for my lawyer and if they're still on the payroll of the. law firms, I don't want to do business with the law firm.

That queen has just permanently fucked up their futures, such as they would have been.

Over a fucking DOG.

It’s never about what it’s about, is this a battle over who forgot to take PrEP and brought an unexpected twist to the relationship?

Smug gay lawyers! The worst.

Ones who have no dog can not understand.

This is why they hate us.

Litigaytion always ends in tears.

This kind of custody battle has little to do with the love of the dog (or sometimes even of the child when it's about a child). It has to do mostly with trying to control and retaliate against the former partner in the relationship. By drawing out the fight they are drawing out the end of the relationship, so clearly they are anxious about ultimately separating. They'd rather keep fighting then settle.

Appoint a Guardian Dog Ad Litem or this could get ruffer.

Gayer vs. Gayer

Talk about barking up the wrong tree.

This Fall on Lifetime…

Cock or Spaniel: The Taylor Leighton Story

The yt one is a Kween escaping Minnesota:

Greess was “initially apprehensive” about the idea, but eventually “agreed to consider doing so,” the affidavit states. In October 2020, Leighton contacted a Minnesota breeder specializing in toy poodles, malti-poos, yorkie-poos, shih-poos, and toy and miniature poodles. Prices ranged from $2,000 to $3,500, but Leighton, a Minnesota native, says in his affidavit that Charlie, his family dog growing up, came from there, and the outfit was a known quantity he felt he could trust.

My god, I smell a severe psychotic breakdown in someone’s future: 🔮

“I chose the name Raven because she was black in color like the bird and because my favorite actor as a child was Raven-Symoné from Disney Channel’s That’s So Raven,” Leighton’s affidavit states. “The Disney Channel was a theme in naming the two other dogs my family owned when I was younger. We had a Springer Spaniel named Brittany that I received as a birthday gift in 2000 (named after one of my favorite singers, Britney Spears) and my yorkie-poo Charlie (named in part due to the title character from Disney Channel’s ‘Good Luck Charlie’). Actually, Raven’s full name is ‘Countess Raven’ in homage to one of my favorite reality television personalities, Countess Luann de Lesseps, of Bravo’s the The Real Housewives of New York City.” Leighton says in his affidavit that he and Greess “specifically discussed who would have title to the dog, given that we were not married.” The two agreed to list Leighton’s name on the ownership papers, the affidavit goes on, because Greess knew all about the issues between Leighton and his mom, regarding Charlie.

Gen Z is obviously going to flood courts with frivolous lawsuits.

Not without my dog-der

Nathan is attractive. Taylor looks like a smushed, troll face.

“I chose the name Raven because she was black in color like the bird and because my favorite actor as a child was Raven-Symoné from Disney Channel’s That’s So Raven.”

This feels racist.

Guys I am rolling…these comments…I have not laughed this hard in a long time…

He really didn't have to add the "black in color" part at all...but then he started digging that hole and had to throw in "like the bird"!

He has to be on the spectrum.

Yes, I am surprised how bad his writing is!! Akin Gump is probably paying this kid $350k/year and his writing is like bad fan fiction

The suit makes Miss T look insane and Nathan like the victim. T sounds scary delusional.

R46 LOL no fucking way. He makes $100-150k max

Correction: The estimated total pay range for an Associate Attorney at Akin is $142K–$253K per year, which includes base salary and additional pay.

But that cunt probably works 75 hours a week. She’ll be burned out in a few years and opportunities for partner are bleak after this debacle.

Two nellie prisspots fighting over some hideous poodle.

This is the MARY!est MARY! post I have ever seen.

This thread has all the ingredients of a DL classic.

Miss Leighton probably became an attorney to cosplay as Elle Woods. I’m sure she’s done a bend and snap or two in her day.

R51 wins this whole thread.

Winston is a better firm than Akin…that’s all I’ve got

r51, for the gaylings

Taylor needs to wear the poodle like a hat, might serve to diminish that five head he's sporting.

White mischief.

Miss Sissyboodles, you in danger, girl!

I have a solution as to what to do about this dog.

Ding! Ding! ^

[quote] Gen Z is obviously going to flood courts with frivolous lawsuits.

Continuing a long and stupid American tradition.

Gonna let you in on a little secret. Every generation has been phenomenally stupid whenever given the opportunity.

R66 I have a solution for Mother & Father Leighton.

This is exactly what's going to happen with Greg and his "husband" and their two Bengal rescue kittens which don't have names and images of them cannot be posted on Datalounge for some reason...

The DRAMA and PRUNES!

Perfecting the art of ruthless pettyness at an animal’s expense. Are big law types worse than theatre types?

Yes their job is to be cunts R71.

[quote] These are the types of queens I know I’ll never be friends with or get along with.

Have you received some type of invitation?

[quote] This is exactly what's going to happen with Greg and his "husband" and their two Bengal rescue kittens which don't have names and images of them cannot be posted on Datalounge for some reason...

Exactly?

Come on Greg, show us the pictures. I mean kittens'.

Yes exactly R74.

The queen who bought him and is listed as the owner on the license should get the dog. It is simple. That other hateful queen should have to pay damages for emotional distress.

[quote] That queen has just permanently fucked up their futures, such as they would have been.

They are GenZ-ers, they will be fine.

[quote] [R46] LOL no fucking way. He makes $100-150k max

Not in NYC. He makes at least $250k but likely more than that.

The elderly conservatives who demonize Gen Z won't criticize old Republicans like Kari Lake, Donald Trump, and Devin Nunes for filing frivolous lawsuits

Winston’s pay scale

Akin Gump’s pay scale from a couple of years ago

That’s a lot of money for someone who likely is just on Grindr and Instagram for 6-8 hours a day.

The OP is the gayest thing I’ve ever read, lol

Money Can’t Buy You Lassie

[quote] Come on Greg, show us the pictures. I mean kittens'.

R75, you mean my poor Bengal props?

R86 don't be such a grudge-bearer, everybody here want to see your cats

Greess (sp?) is clearly being petty about keeping what is clearly the other guy's dog. But Leighton has ZERO awareness of how he comes across with this.

Plus - putting his MOM on blast and then providing the gayest most MARY over-the-top explanation of the dog's name, which was totally unnecessary and not needed.

Drama queen has RUINED his career. He'll be softly pushed out within a year or two. His ex will be fine because, although embarrassing, it was put ON him and not something that he did himself to tarnish the firm's reputation.

I want to know how his mother used Charlie to "control him."

R89- she probably did something innocuous - like limit his playtime with the dog if he didn't clean up his room or other task. Basically not getting to do exactly what he wanted.

She made him walk his own dog!

[quote]Over a fucking DOG.

It's my daughter, the Countess Raven, you monster!

[quote] but it was me who took the lead on all planning and implementation

Oh, dear. Akin Gump hired this illiterate?

As soon as I saw the name Raven-Symoné, I stopped reading and vomited, she's another cunt, not straight but acts just like a straight cunt.
