Hearing on Snap's Motion to Dismiss the Complaint
2023-10-18 09:30 - 23:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Los Angeles Superior Courthouse, 312 N Spring Street, 312 N Spring Street, Los Angeles, CA, United States
Snap INC.’s attempt to dismiss grieving parents’ lawsuit.
Hearing on Snap’s motion to Dismiss Neville et al v. Snap Inc., Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. 22STCV33500
The plaintiffs will hold a press conference prior to the proceedings on Friday morning. Victims’ families, alongside council, Social Media Victims Law Center and C.A. Goldberg, will speak with press on the courthouse steps about their historic lawsuit against Snap Inc.
Time:
9:30 AM PST, Wednesday, 18 October 2023
Background:
The plaintiffs impacted by these proceeding s include 63 grieving families who say that Snap Inc knowingly allowed criminal behavior on the platform, Snapchat, and even targeted their children with drug advertisements and connections at the cost of their children’s lives.
The judge in this case, Honorable Lawrence P. Riff, will hear Snap Inc’s motion for sanctions against the plaintiffs along with a motion to have the case dismissed by the Los Angeles Superior Court.
Snap Inc’s legal maneuvers are typical of a mega corporation attempting to evade accountability. To disrupt and confuse proceedings in this way is all a part of the greater strategy to deflect and allay shareholders’ concerns.
While today is another day at the office for Snap and its legal representatives, it’s far more for the plaintiffs who represent a small fraction of the overall carnage left in the wake of Snap Inc’s platform, Snapchat.
Plaintiffs contend that each day, untold numbers of illicit drug transactions, extortion schemes, sharing of child abuse materials, suicidal exploitation, and more take place on Snapchat with mortal consequences. Plaintiffs contend that many of the negative issues that are prevalent on the platform are not bugs, but instead are known and foreseeable outcomes of the platform’s design and programming decisions.
As discovery and denials pile up, Snap Inc’s methods and motivations become startlingly clear. From the beginning, Snapchat was built for sexting and drug procurement without consequence, created by and appealing to adults who sought to circumvent societal norms via their mobile devices.
The dangerous nature of the Snapchat platform was intentional and was purposely targeted at young people through “dark patterns,” or strategies designed to lure and capture users through careful psychological hacks, marketing, and then monopolization of the social media space amongst young Americans.

Facts on Fentanyl Forum coming Oct. 25
2023-10-25 08:30 | St. Irenaeus Parish Hall, 5201 Evergreen Ave., Cypress, CA, 90630, United States
By Rosemary Lewallen
A 14-year-old boy took a pill which he thought was OxyContin. He purchased it off social media and it was delivered to his home. The pill actually contained Fentanyl, a cheap, highly addictive and lethal alternative. The boy died that night. This horror story is not a Halloween tale. It is how Alexander Hastings Neville died on June 23, 2020.
Please attend the “Facts on Fentanyl Forum” on Wednesday, October 25th from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at St. Irenaeus Parish Hall at 5201 Evergreen Ave., Cypress, CA 90630. Our speaker is Amy Neville, Alexander’s mother and Founder of the Alexander Neville Foundation. She will give information about the dangers of Fentanyl, and talk about how we can protect our kids, friends and associates from Fentanyl poisoning. This free forum is sponsored by St. Irenaeus’ Faith Community Nurse, Jennifer Dagarag, as part of Health Ministry. Refreshments will be offered.
We invite parents and students to come to this important forum. Fentanyl has caused the recent death of a toddler in a New York City daycare plus the sickness of two other children who were revived by Narcan after playing on a mat where Fentanyl had been placed hours earlier. This deadly substance is a threat to everyone. Learn how you can save a life. Call Nurse Jennifer if you have any questions at 714-826-0760.

We are extending an invitation to join us at the Los Angeles Angels vs Kansas City Royals game on May 9th, 2024, offering FREE tickets. As we observe National Fentanyl Awareness Day, we aim to shed light on the profound impact of fentanyl and pay tribute to those affected by this crisis.
Fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid, claimed the life of Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs in 2019, serving as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by this substance. Last year alone, over 70,000 Americans lost their lives to overdoses involving illegally made fentanyl, highlighting the urgent need for collective action.
Our event isn’t just about enjoying a baseball game—it’s about uniting individuals, families, educators, businesses, influencers, and policymakers in the fight against fentanyl. Through education, advocacy, and policy initiatives, we strive to prevent further tragedies and safeguard our communities.
We encourage you to spread the word and invite your network to join us in raising awareness about fentanyl. To reserve your free tickets, you must fill out this Free Ticket Request Form. Secure your spot at the game and let’s stand together on May 9th to confront this public health crisis head-on.
