Lawsuit: Pending NovaKerbal v. Town of Oakridge [2026] DCR 6

[Novakerbal]

Case Filing

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CIVIL ACTION


NovaKerbal
Plaintiff

v.

Town of Oakridge
Defendant

COMPLAINT
The Plaintiff complains against the Defendant as follows:

On January 18th, 2026 the Town Council of Oakridge made a public announcement to all Oakridge residents accusing the plaintiff of murder, "serious criminal offense", domestic terrorism, violation of lawful assembly, and violation of public safety. The only allegation substantiated by the DHS at the time was a singular unpublished wanted star given to the Plaintiff. Neither has any Court Ruling been posted to substantiate any indictable crimes claim at the time the announcement was posted. The Town of Oakridge does not have the legal jurisdiction to convict any of these alleged actions or crimes aside from Disorderly Conduct, which the Town has failed to summarily convict the Plaintiff of prior to the posting of the slanderous announcement. This amount to a violation of the No More Defamation Act, as the Town Council of Oakridge (the directors of the Town; a public entity) published a statement filled with unsubstantiated assertions, accusing the Plaintiff of conduct which at the time of the announcement had not been confirmed by any entity with legal jurisdiction. This slander and libel directly harmed NovaKerbal's reputation, as it accused her of serious crimes and made these accusations to the public. The Town Council of Oakridge has no right to use the bully pulpit and their elected office in order to slander individuals who have not been duly convicted of a crime.

I. PARTIES
1. NovaKerbal (Plaintiff)
2. JustaHumpling (Posted on behalf of the Council)
3. Town Council of Oakridge (Collectively)(Directors)
4. Town of Oakridge (Defendant)

II. FACTS
1. On January 18th, 2026, JustaHumpling posted the statement in the official announcements channel for the Town of Oakridge, on behalf of the Town Council of Oakridge (P-001).
2. As of the posting of this announcement, only 1 singular murder charge had been levied against the Plaintiff in relation to the accused crimes (P-002).
3. As of the posting of this announcement, no case had been filed, nor had any Judicial Officer ruled that the Plaintiff had committed any indictable crime in relation to the alleged events.
4. The announcement claims that NovaKerbal had killed "all attending members and presenters", committed Domestic Terrorism, along with violating public safety and lawful assembly protections (P-001).
5. Domestic Terrorism is not a crime defined by the Criminal Code Act.
6. The Town Council of Oakridge made several false statements, as they accused the Plaintiff of crimes that at the time of the announcement, had not been litigated. Thus the statements were verifiable false, as the Town Council of Oakridge does not have the jurisdiction to unilaterally declare such crimes.
7. The Announcement severely harmed the Plaintiff's public reputation and Right to a Fair Trial by asserting that she was guilty of said crimes, publicly branding the Plaintiff as a domestic terrorist and criminal.
8. §5(6)(b)(i) of the Legal Entity Act states that "For the purposes of this act all members of the Town Council shall be considered directors of the town public entity."

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF
1. The Defendant posted multiple false statements through official government channels with the intention of publicly harming the Plaintiff's reputation. Constituting both Libel and Slander under the No More Defamation Act.
2. The Plaintiff's reputation was severely damaged, as members of the public now believe her to be a Mass Shooter and/or Domestic Terrorist based on the publicized statement (P-003).

IV. PRAYER FOR RELIEF
The Plaintiff seeks the following from the Defendant:
1. 25,000$ in Compensatory Damages for the egregious reputational harm that the Plaintiff has suffered in the public eye due to the actions of the Town Council of Oakridge.
2. 20,000$ in Punitive Damages for the blatant misuse of permissions granted by the Elected Office to publish libel and slander. Constituting outrageous conduct, as the Town Council of Oakridge acted willingly to target the Plaintiff with malicious, slanderous, and provably false allegations at the time of the posting of the announcement.
3. A retraction of the offending announcement and a public apology pursuant to the No More Defamation Act.
