🚨 UPDATE: Megan Pete has now refiled her request to register the $75,000 judgment against Milagro Cooper in the Southern District of Texas while Milagro’s appeal remains pending, and this new filing makes her intended collection target very clear. In a nutshell, Megan wants permission to take the Florida judgment to Texas so she can pursue Milagro’s Texas assets, including the money in the Chase accounts where Milagro’s income from content creation, subscriptions and platform monetization is deposited through services including Stripe, PayPal, Zelle and Twitch. Megan’s attorneys specifically tell the court that once the judgment is registered in Texas, they would be able to pursue collection remedies under Texas law, including a judgment lien and garnishment of the Chase accounts where Milagro’s income is deposited. They claim bank records show balances in those accounts have at times exceeded $70,000, although they also acknowledge the balances fluctuate significantly and have fallen near zero. So they are NOT claiming Milagro currently has $70,000 sitting in her account. Their argument is that substantial amounts of money flow through these accounts and could potentially be unavailable by the time the appeal is over. Megan argues she should not have to wait for the appeal to conclude because Milagro has not posted a supersedeas bond and there is currently no stay preventing enforcement of the judgment. Her attorneys argue there are no known assets in the Southern District of Florida sufficient to satisfy the judgment, while Milagro resides and has assets in Texas. Also, to clarify something from the previous sealed filing, Megan’s attorneys now state that they conferred with Milagro in writing on August 24 regarding the relief they were seeking and that Milagro opposed it. So yes, there was a conferral. However, they still subsequently filed their original request under seal and ex parte, asking the judge to decide the request without giving Milagro the opportunity to participate in and respond to the application before the court ruled. That is the procedure Judge Altonaga rejected. She explained that ex parte proceedings are generally disfavored because fairness requires an opposing party to have a reasonable opportunity to know what is being presented to the court and respond to it. She denied that request without prejudice. Megan has now refiled publicly, so Milagro has the opportunity to oppose it. Bottom line: Megan is asking for permission to register the judgment in Texas while Milagro’s appeal is still pending so she can begin pursuing collection there. And her attorneys are no longer vague about what they intend to pursue. They specifically identify Milagro’s Chase accounts receiving her streaming and content creation income and say Texas registration would allow Megan to seek garnishment of those accounts.
