The legal documents would show in response to the lawsuit Jisu's lawyer would file an anti-SLAPP motion leading to 3 of 4 claims for defamation being struck, due to statute of limitations, leading to the only complaint was Jisu's allegation tweet that ZeRo asked a 14-year to send pictures of herself masturbating with ice cubes and offered to fly another minor out to "do that" in a hotel with him. ZeRo's response to these allegations in court was to deny the second allegation but did not mention the first one. BlackWolfCompany states the court found it odd ZeRo chose to ignore the first of the two allegations, with the court stating that ZeRo did not adequately defend himself against Jisu's statement<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.jacobwolf.report/p/zero-former-roommate-jisu-nearing-settlement-defamation-lawsuit|title=ZeRo, Former Roommate Jisu, Nearing Settlement in Defamation Lawsuit}}</ref> by not denying the part of Jisu's statement about soliciting explicit pictures, ZeRo offers no evidence to show Jisu's statement was false. The court let the lawsuit proceed, stating they were giving ZeRo "the benefit of the doubt" assuming that this was a drafting error. The court would give ZeRo an opportunity to amend his complaint to include a rebuttal to ZeRo soliciting explicit pictures. In the amended complaint ZeRo chose to not include denying soliciting explicit pictures. The court case would settle out of court with prejudice. BlackWolfCompany would then say ZeRo's lawsuit has been a failure as it had not proven to refute or recant his allegations, alleging it seemed more designed to disrupt the narrative than to actually win the lawsuit. BlackWolfCompany would further show ZeRo making a statement on Katie where ZeRo denies the allegations and claims he is trying to find katie in order to sue her, then ZeRo claims he has evidence that proves his innocence against these claims but won't show it unless for a lawsuit, further claiming Katie has shown zero evidence. BlackWolfCompany would point out Katie has shown evidence in the past and that it's bizarre that ZeRo claims he has evidence to prove his innocence but will not show it on his large platform in order to clear his name. | ||
With the view of ZeRo's allegations having functionally not changed from prelawsuit ZeRo has not been welcomed back into the community<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.communitysafetyproject.org/restricted-player-register|title= Global ban recommendation list}}</ref> and remains a controversial figure. Nevertheless, some believe the court case absolved ZeRo's allegations, particularly from those who are fans of Technicals, where ZeRo would be unbanned from and attend an in-person regional at [https://www.start.gg/tournament/cirque-3-5-a-florida-regional/events Cirque 3.5] and attend some online tournaments. | With the view of ZeRo's allegations having functionally not changed from prelawsuit ZeRo has not been welcomed back into the community<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.communitysafetyproject.org/restricted-player-register|title= Global ban recommendation list}}</ref> and remains a controversial figure.
