Figures. He answers Count 1 by saying Kaplanis wasn't a resident of Florida when the employment agreement and relevant events occurred. Not that it didn't happen, but that Florida has no jurisdiction / Kaplanis lacks standing. He then moves to dismiss Counts 2 and 3 (the biggie, Misrepresentation) because Honest John lives in Canada and Florida law doesn't apply to him or the circumstances of the complaint.

I think JB has him on Count 1. How does Kaplanis prove he was fired without cause? The Emp Agreement does waive the right to a jury trial so that's out. Counts 2 & 3, however, have to make JB pretty nervous. His only hope is the improper jurisdiction gambit. If it fails, then MUCH JBII dirty laundry will be made public - perhaps enough to bring down the entire house of cards. Kaplanis need only read the PR's from last year into the record followed by the restated 10Q/A's and 10K/A.

I hope the PIPE investors and large retail bagholders are paying attention. They can expect to see the same defense if they ever try to pursue him for this con.
