Stamped, sworn, and on the record — how a private dispute became a sovereign-scale filing.
Record Notice (January 16, 2026):
Proceedings before the Supreme Court were formally recorded on January 16, 2026. The official court video and certified audiovisual record will be published when released by the Court. This report relies solely on filings, registry records, and matters stated on the record pending publication of the official footage.
On April 17, 2025, at 13:21 AST, with $52 ECD in registry fees paid,
the original Statement of Claim in Case ANUHCV2025/0149 was accepted and stamped “FILED” by the Registry of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court (High Court of Justice, Antigua & Barbuda). That filing identified a core syndicate — David Boies, Gloria Allred, Michael Avenatti, Tom Girardi, Black Cube, LimeWire, John Branca, and senior UPP executives — asserting Caribbean asset jurisdiction and $10 billion in damages for alleged abuse of process, conspiracy, and economic interference affecting Antigua & Barbuda.On September 24, 2025, at 11:49 AST, with $42 ECD paid, an Amended Statement of Claim was accepted and stamped “FILED” under CPR Rule 20. That amendment transformed the case in scope and gravity. It pleads $80 billion+ in asserted sovereign damages, models long-arc carbon sovereignty losses extending toward $400 billion, sets out a fossil-fuel-aligned motive theory, and expands the defendant schedule through Annex A to include global banks and CEOs (including Jamie Dimon, Jane Fraser, and Brian Moynihan), major media conglomerates, judicial and quasi-judicial actors, and the full UPP committee.
These are not secondary reports or screenshots. They are the Court’s own stamps, registry entries, fee receipts, and sworn verifications. As a matter of record, invisibility has ended.
