Summary and analysis:

In the course of the preliminaries preceding trial a court order was passed down requiring defendants in Konnech v True the Vote, Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht to comply in providing details of who, what, when, where, and how they obtained the information off the Konnech servers in China that allegedly contain personal identifying information (PII) on 1.8 million U.S. election and poll workers across the country and for which Jianwei Yu has been indicted and, as of Friday 14 October, 2022, arraigned in Los Angeles County District Court in California.

Highlighted in the excerpts below from Court Case Documents 29, 28, 25 & 16, you can quickly get the gist of the "signal, not the noise," as Steve Bannon would quip, of what is at the heart of the matter. Phillips et al. have been gaslighting the opposition and successfully drew their fire ("Everything is an information operation") in the early stages of this Lawfare battle as it relates to the exposure of Konnech and its alleged illegal activities in regards to election administration. "2000 Mules" drop box stuffing was the distraction, drew MAGA independent media support to Phillips and Engelbrecht, The Pit concentrated and focused on Konnech Inc as the big reveal... and the rest is... well, history still in the making.

CIVIL ACTION NO. 4 :22-CV-03096

v
TRUE THE VOTE, INC., GREGG PHILLIPS AND CATHERINE ENGELBRECHT
Defendants

DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO HOLD MATTER IN ABEYANCE

Come now Defendants True the Vote, Catherine Engelbrecht, and Gregg Phillips, by counsel, and respectfully moves this Court to hold this matter in abeyance for one week until October 19, 2022 for the following reasons.

1. Plaintiff yesterday moved this Court for leave to Amend its Complaint by adding a specified individual as a named defendant (Doc 28);

2. Defendant Gregg Phillips has today engaged counsel to represent him in this matter; and

3. Plaintiff’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Eugene Yu, will be arraigned on Friday October 14th before the Superior Court of California, Los Angeles County, on felony charges sounding in theft of personal identifying information of American 2 election workers – at which time Defendants are reliably informed, the indictment against Mr. Yu will be unsealed.

Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend the Complaint materially alters this controversy, creating new issues requiring Defendants’ review and evaluation in order to enable this Court fully to be apprised and informed preparatory to the eventual resolution of the case.

The unsealing of Mr. Yu’s indictment will enable this Court more effectively to assess the credibility of the only evidence supporting Plaintiff ‘s essential contentions in this action - Mr. Yu’s affidavit unenhanced through live testimony and untested through cross examination. Further illuminating as it shall, the lack of reliability of Mr. Yu’s affidavit, the unsealing of the indictment will bear with particularity on the inappropriateness of the Temporary Restraining Order’s (“TRO”) mandate for specific performance (i.e., disclosure by Defendants of specified information). Courts are extremely reluctant to grant injunctive relief mandating specific performance.

The unsealing of Mr. Yu’s indictment will also lend further clarity to the restrictions precluding any disclosures by Defendants in this action - augmenting thereby Defendants’ affirmative defense of Necessity to Plaintiff’s Motion to Show Cause. As earlier represented, Defendants have been reliably informed by federal law enforcement that compliance with Paragraphs V, VI and VII of the TRO would jeopardize national security and the physical security of the individual named in the last hearing. Mr. Yu’s unsealed indictment should afford this Court greater clarity in evaluating Defendants’ justification for non compliance with these paragraphs. Further limiting compliance with these paragraphs, Defendant Phillips testified before the Grand Jury that indicted Mr. Yu and he continues to be bound by the secrecy of that proceeding which he was sworn to uphold. (Said secrecy may be attenuated by the unsealing of the indictment – further auguring the allowance of more time for Defendants further to respond to the TRO.)

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO AMEND PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT TO ADD DEFENDANT MIKE HASSON

Plaintiff Konnech, Inc. (“Konnech”) files this Motion for Leave to Amend its complaint to add Mike Hasson as a defendant, and shows as follows:

On September 12, 2022, Konnech filed this lawsuit and on September 13, 2022, the Defendants accepted service of the complaint. Since the complaint in this action was served more than 21 days ago on Defendants, Konnech seeks leave of Court to amend its complaint to add Mike Hasson as a defendant to this action. Mr. Hasson is the individual that Defendants True the Vote, Inc., Gregg Phillips, and Catherine Engelbrecht (the “TTV Defendants”) identified on October 6, 2022 in open court—after being repeatedly ordered by the Court to do so—as a person involved in accessing Konnech’s protected computer without authority and allegedly taking data obtained therefrom. Specifically, Defendants claim that Mr. Hasson invited Defendant Phillips to a hotel room in Dallas, Texas at midnight in January 2021 to show him what he allegedly found on a Konnech server in China, and that Mr. Hasson then gave Defendant Phillips a copy of that data on a hard drive. This Court, during that same October 6 hearing, stated that it wants Mr. Hasson added as a defendant to Konnech’s Complaint.

Accordingly, based on the TTV Defendants’ admissions and representations to the Court, and pursuant to Rule 15(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Konnech moves this Court for leave to add Mr. Hasson as a defendant to this action. A proposed First Amended Complaint is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

ORDER To Comply With TRO (proposed)

Came on for consideration Plaintiff Konnech, Inc.’s (“Konnech”) Motion to Show Cause and For Contempt Against Defendants of the September 12, 2022 Temporary Restraining Order (“TRO”). At an in-person hearing on October 6, 2022, the Court again ordered Defendants to disclose to Konnech the identity of the individual that Defendants True the Vote, Inc., Gregg Phillips, and Catherine Engelbrecht (“Defendants”) claim was involved in accessing Konnech’s protected computers1 as required by subsection v of the TRO. At that hearing, however, Defendants’ counsel read into the record the name of a single person in response to subsection v of the TRO, but did not otherwise identify any organization that individual is involved with as required by the TRO, nor did Defendants state or identify whether any other persons or organizations were involved in accessing Konnech’s protected computers despite their previous public statements referring to the involvement of multiple persons. Having considered the parties’ briefing and the argument of counsel, the Court finds that Defendants remain in Contempt of subsections v, vi, and vii of the TRO.

Document # 16 / Date Filed September 9, 2022

KONNECH, INC.
Plaintiff
v
TRUE THE VOTE, INC., GREGG PHILLIPS AND CATHERINE ENGELBRECHT
Defendants

On September 15, 2022, and in lieu of complying with the TRO, Defendants’ counsel filed under seal an ex parte letter addressed to the Court which states that it identifies an individual whom they claim is actually responsible for the alleged unauthorized access of Konnech’s computers and the theft of its data. (Doc. 15.) However, the individual’s name was redacted from Konnech’s copy of the letter, and Defendants did not otherwise purport to comply with subsections v, vi, or vii of the TRO. Specifically, subsection v of the TRO required Defendants to identify “each individual and/or organization involved in accessing Konnech’s protected computers.” Defendant Phillips previously referred to the persons who allegedly gained unauthorized access to Konnech’s computers as his “analysts,” and his “guys,” thus signifying more than one person.

At the end of the day I still go with my gut that Mike Hasson was the courier (like Mary Fanning was for Mike Lindell) to pass the Konnech data to Gregg Phillips and (like Mike Lindell's 32 tera bytes of data) Dennis Montgomery is the source.

See post below for information linking Gregg Phillips to Dennis Montgomery in September of 2020.
