CNN —
Attorneys will once again get to question Alex Murdaugh, after a judge ruled the convicted murderer will be deposed in a wrongful-death lawsuit filed by the family of Mallory Beach against the Murdaugh family and a convenience store.

Representatives for the Beach family and Parker’s Kitchen convenience store will get the opportunity to question Murdaugh. No date for his deposition has been set at this time.

The case is currently set for a mid-August trial date in Hampton County.

I doubt AM will be "forced" to give a deposition. If he refuses, what will the judge do? Throw him in jail?

A judge has ruled Alex Murdaugh must sit for a deposition in the case, which will take place behind bars because of Murdaugh's conviction.

HAMPTON COUNTY, S.C. (Court TV) — The attorney representing the family of Mallory Beach in a wrongful death lawsuit against several parties, including disgraced attorney and convicted killer Alex Murdaugh, said that he will likely not ask him any questions during an upcoming deposition.

Alex Murdaugh was convicted of killing his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, on their property on June 7, 2021. Prior to his death, Paul had been indicted for charges he was drunk while driving a boat that crashed in 2019, killing his friend, Mallory Beach. Beach’s family filed a wrongful death lawsuit in 2019 against both the Murdaugh family and the convenience store which sold Paul the alcohol.

From Link:
But in a statement to Court TV, Beach family attorney Mark Tinsley said that while he will participate in the deposition, he will not be asking Murdaugh any questions.

“I plan on participating in the deposition, but I seriously doubt I’ll ask Alex Murdaugh any questions during that deposition for the sake of educating someone who is as skilled a liar as him. Instead, I’ll wait until trial to ask my questions.”

Sounds like good strategy from Tinsley IMO

After four years of often heated and bitter pretrial legal skirmishes, attorneys for the multi-million-dollar corporation Parker's have filed a bold motion seeking to disqualify both of the attorneys representing the Beach family and estate, alleging improper actions.

Circuit Judge Daniel D. Hall, who will preside over the wrongful death case, is set to hear arguments at 4 p.m. on Wednesday on the motion to disqualify Allendale County attorney Mark Tinsley and Beaufort County attorney Tabor Vaux, who represent the Beach Estate and Renee Beach, the mother of the drowning victim.

Mark Tinsley responds, claiming motion full of 'lies'​

Tinsley, a well-known personal injury attorney who made an even larger name for himself during the recent, internationally publicized murder trial of Alex Murdaugh, called the motion almost flattering but full of "lies."

"This motion to disqualify is a part of a calculated play by Greg Parker and his lawyers to derail the upcoming trial based on half truths and outright misrepresentations," Tinsley told The Hampton County Guardian. "When a person thinks his money entitles him and he is used to acting with impunity, then accountability may seem like injustice. Since the law and the facts are not on their side, Parker and his attorneys have decided to attack the Beach family and its counsel. I guess I should be flattered that they are so afraid of me that they will just outright lie to the court, but I'm not. The Beach family views these continued meritless attacks to be a part of Parker's ongoing attempt to terrorize them. We look forward to demonstrating to the court all of the many lies in the motion."

Tinsley added that this is an attempt to derail a trial four years in the making. The 2019 case is scheduled to go to trial beginning Aug. 14 in front of a Hampton County jury.

However, if Judge Hall approves this motion, and the Beach family has to find new legal representation, the case could be postposed for months, possibly longer.

UPDATE: Judge denies motion to dismiss Mark Tinsley from Beach death suit; attorneys respond



6/30/2023

UPDATE: YORK COUNTY, SC -- South Carolina Circuit Judge Daniel D. Hall today denied a motion to dismiss plaintiff's attorneys Mark Tinsley and Tabor Vaux from the Mallory Beach wrongful death civil suit over allegations of improper attorney conduct.

The wrongful death case, sparked by the fatal boat crash involving convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh's son, Paul, remains set to go to trial in Hampton County Aug. 14.

While Judge Hall's order has not been electronically filed on the state court website as of Friday evening, both Tinsley and defense attorneys for Gregory M. Parker and Parker's Corporation, who are co-defendants along with Alex Murdaugh, confirmed the ruling and offered comment.

“We filed the motion to disqualify Mark Tinsley and Tabor Vaux from this case in order to ensure a fair trial," said PK Shere, attorney for Parker's. "Subsequently the Judge has made his decision, and we will look forward to presenting our case to a jury next month and exonerating Tajeeha Cohen and Parker’s."

“Parker’s had intentionally made a complicated set of facts even more complicated and confusing in an attempt to construct their narrative to hide the truth.

Attorney Mark Tinsley released a statement about the judge’s decision later in the evening:

“But, their motion was meritless and, as we pointed out in our memo filed with the court, it was filled with misrepresentations. I think it’s telling when the foundation of someone’s argument is built upon lies. Here, Parker’s position and its personal attacks were all a house of cards and the judge saw through it. Now we hope can get back to continuing to prepare for trial.”

Right now all the bots and trolls are asking for instruction on how to proceed from here

As it should be! In my opinion, Mr. Parker, Inc., failed at every turn with this case when he could have settled. Instead, he fought for a separate trial and then summary judgment -- each denied. And this was strike 3. I doubt his insurer will support him going thru with a trial and this attack on the talent was personal and had nothing to do with the merits of the case. He's in good company with Murdaugh as his co-defendant. JMO

The judge’s denial of the motion means the trial is still expected to begin in Hampton County on August 14.
