From Tony Ortega:

GARCIAS RESPOND TO SCIENTOLOGY: YOU’RE A BIG RIPOFF
http://tonyortega.org/2013/04/22/garcias-respond-to-scientology-youre-a-big-ripoff/

Excerpts:

On Monday evening, Luis and Rocio Garcia filed more than a dozen documents with the court in their federal fraud lawsuit against the Church of Scientology. There’s a lot of really interesting stuff in them, including declarations by Luis Garcia and others, as well as current price lists and bills from Scientology’s private cruise ship, the Freewinds.

Now, the Garcias are making the case that Scientology’s arbitration scheme is inherently unfair, and its refund policies are fraudulent. And they’re doing it through a series of declarations by longtime former Scientologists, including the man who was once the second-highest-ranking official in the church, Mark “Marty” Rathbun.

Mark Rathbun Declaration, Garcia Lawsuit

Excerpt from Marty's declaration:

The arbitration clause contained in the Enrollment Agreement was specifically included by staff and counsel in compliance with David Miscavige’s orders that we make it as difficult as possible for people to obtain refunds while also acting as if we didn not cancel or undermine Founder L. Ron Hubbard’s original refund policy….Anyone who requests a refund is by definition, “guilty” in the eyes of Scientologists in good standing, no matter what the issue, especially when that person is in conflict with any Scientologist, and even more so the church itself. So, when I worked with others in the church to require that all members of any “arbitration” panel be members in good standing with the church of Scientology, by definition, we obviated the entire “arbitration” process altogether: There is simply nothing for a Scientologist in good standing to arbitrate when dealing with someone requesting a refund.

GARCIAS RESPOND TO SCIENTOLOGY: YOU’RE A BIG RIPOFF

Glad they now realise that. In scientology, that's called a "cognition".

Garcia case - new developments 4/24/13

New developments from Tony Ortega:
SCIENTOLOGY TO FEDERAL COURT: Let Us Refute The Garcia Declarations, And Then Butt Out of Our Religion
http://tonyortega.org/2013/04/24/sc...clarations-and-then-butt-out-of-our-religion/
Excerpt:

Monday evening, the Garcia federal fraud lawsuit against the Church of Scientology heated up when the Garcias filed several declarations from former church members who said Scientology’s refund process is designed to be a sham.

Now, the church has fired back, asking federal Judge James Whittemore to allow Scientology to file a 10-page memorandum and a set of their own declarations in support of its previous argument and — and here’s the really ballsy part — the judge should then butt out, because the church’s position is a religious one and not something an American court can get involved in.
