Funimation Files Anti-SLAPP Motion to Dismiss Vic Mignogna's Lawsuit

Funimation filed an anti-SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) motion to dismiss voice actor Vic Mignogna’s lawsuit against it on Monday, claiming that the lawsuit impedes Funimation’s freedom of speech.

Funimation argued that the TCPA applies to this case because Funimation’s tweets involved a matter of public concern.

The anime distributor further noted that Mignogna cannot provide clear and specific evidence for each of his claims against Funimation.
