Many will say that this publication is mainly driven by anger, frustration or a frivolous unacceptance of losing an appeal, however, I ask those who care about objectivity to read not only the website
https://www.0justice.com but at the very least the appellate briefs and motion filed. Although I certainly fell many negative emotions towards this lawsuit, the main drive has been and still is obtaining clearing my name and getting some form of justice, which is not an impossible task at this point of the litigation. I believe that public exposure can only help.
This is NVG so I will copy paste the most newsworthy elements of what I wrote in
https://www.0justice.com
The site covers more legal issues and goes into a little more detail so if you want all the details or have a decent understanding of the law I strongly suggest just reading it from 0justice.com

To be clear, I sincerely
do not expect to win this lawsuit nor that much will happen from this post, but for my family and I have the duty to do this last attempt at justice.
Snippet of Jason Mercier's & Natasha Mercier's Scammy, Cheating & Dishonest History
The litigation brought to light revealing information about both of the Merciers, which unfortunately was not used in the litigation as they did not get deposed due to their attorney’s bad faith litigation tactics.
Natasha Mercier
1. Robert Mizrachi, who knows Natasha much better than I do, told me "Natasha is a snake". He has many reasons for this and one of them being that when she lost around $25k to him in OFC she did her common practice of making a greatly reduced offer to settle the debt. Since Natasha was known have unpaid debts, Robert had to accept the $15k she offered as not taking that would put him at a great risk of not getting paid. Natasha has scammed and cheated others the same way he did to Robert.
2. Had I not lost in live OFC when Natasha requested me to play before settling, I strongly doubt Natasha would have ever paid me the $23k she owed me for months. We first agreed to settle every 6k and when I reached that amount she reneged on the agreement and said she was out of the country and would settle upon her return. Once she returned the debt was over 10k and she once again reneged and said she would settle at the PCA in Bahamas. Once we met in Bahamas she declined to settle and wanted to play live first. Playing a variant I had never played she won around 18k and then tried to get a discount (as she has done with other players) on the remaining balance left. I refused her proposal and the relatively small balance was paid.
3. There is a preserved video of a Miami poker player telling a story about Natasha cheating in online poker. This video was preserved in 2020 by the House of Kings (the owners think I’m probably a cheater and were uncooperative) poker room in Texas. This video is only under their control and possession, but I am certain that at the very least it existed as one of the workers confirmed to me that the video was saved in a USB drive, which I paid for. I attempted to contact this player in order to get more information on his stories, but since he knew I was involved in a lawsuit he never replied to any of my communications. Therefore, I only know that there is a video of him saying a story where he witnessed Natasha cheating online and I do now know more. Knowing everything I know about Natasha it would not surprise me if it’s true.
4. Natasha's known scamming tactics. Although this third fact was already known it is important to not forget it as it reveals the modus operandi Natasha had to scam/cheat others.
Jason Mercier
1. As evidenced by the Youtube video, Watch 20 seconds of the video below starting from minute 5:57
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvAGR_pdCX0&t=340s
Jason Mercier had accused Shaun Deeb, who is one of Jason’s closest friends in poker and one of the best OFC players in the world, of cheating in OFC Poker! This was astonishing to me. Not only did Jason Mercier accused Shaun Deeb of cheating and caused him damage (Deeb was not getting paid a debt by Melissa Burr due to the accusation) but Jason concealed it from Deeb for a long time. From the video it seems like Deeb eventually found out about the accusation via Melissa Burr and thereafter confronted Jason who, after getting caught of his wrongdoing by his friend, quickly apologized and their friendship continued. Jason Mercier does not care at all for making obviously false and “emotional” accusations of cheating to close friends much less would he care with someone who is not close.
2. Since 2016 or before Jason Mercier knew about Natasha’s past incident with Kuhns89 and Natasha falsely accusing him of cheating. During the course of the litigation, Kuhns89 confirmed to me that Jason apologized to him for the situation that happened with Natasha (the false accusation of cheating) and that Jason said he knew Kuhns89 was not a cheater. Jason knowing the scamming modus opperandi of Natasha and his inclination to easily accuse others of cheating, still went out to publicly state that he was just trying to protect the poker community from a potential scam and that he only spoke when others directly asked him about me.
3. Jason Mercier in the past years (do not know if he still does) sells significant amounts of bitcoin (from what I was told 5-6 digits) at a markup for profit. One player confirmed to me that they had agreed to a transaction via an intermediary and Jason Mercier sent less BTC because Jason inexplicably almost doubled the markup.
4. In my Request for Admissions (R. 671) to Jason Mercier, where he must legally admit, deny, state he cannot deny or admit due to insufficient information, or object, he was requested to admit or deny the following "You have communicated to at least one third party about Plaintiff's OFC play". Instead of admitting or denying he objected and in the end stated:
"I DO NOT RECALL ANY COMMUNICATION WHERE I REFERRED TO ROSAS AS A CHEATER AND DO NOT BELIEVE I EVER DID"
I ask Jason, after all this litigation you still do not recall what happened in 2019 with what you said to Zach Goodman and the rest of the poker players who were sitting at the table or what you said the years before?
5. Jason Mercier was sued in 2014 by11Media Group LLC, a company that represents poker players, for breach of contract and non-payment of a 15% commission Jason Mercier agreed to pay. 11Media Group LLC alleged that Jason Mercier owed $46,218 .The court had to compel Jason Mercier to produce the main document of that litigation as he did not initially provide it in the request for production of documents. Jason Mercier made an offer of judgment on September 18, 2015 and the case ultimately ended on March 31, 2016 as it seems the parties finally reached an agreed settlement.
These facts come to show, once again, that Jason Mercier has no honor and is someone who can easily lie to the court or anyone for that matter. falsely accuse others of cheating, and not pay agreed amounts even if in writing and legally binding.
Jason Mercier's Attorney's (Jason N. Goldman) History of Blatantly Lying to Both Trial and Appellate Courts
In Briarwood Capital v. Lennar Corp., 125 So. 3d 291 (Fla:3rd 2013) the court sanctioned Keith T. Grumer Jason N. Goldman stated:
• The Marsch attorneys engaged in the same legerdemain before the trial court... This patently false assertion by Marsch counsel is antithetical to the ethical obligation lawyers with the privilege to pass before the bar to address a court have to the judges before whom they appear. Marsch counsel might as well have cast a dagger into the heart of the rule of law. See R. Regulating Fla. Bar 4-3.3(a)(1) ("A lawyer shall not knowingly ... make a false statement of fact or law to a tribunal....").
In that case the attorneys Goldman and Grumer astonishingly
misrepresented to both the trial and appellate court what was stated the judgment.. It is of utmost importance to keep in mind the history and dishonest tactics of Goldman as these are extrenely relevant to what happened in my lawsuit versus the Merciers.
Background to the Filing of Lawsuit
In 2015 I played OFC against Natasha on the Pineapple App. I beat her for around $23k and several times she gave excuses for her non-payment. We meet in person for the first time in January 2016 for the Pokerstars Caribean Adventure and she said she wanted to play live before settling and so we did. We played Badugi top Deuce middle Pineapple with spades multipliers, none of which I had ever played before, I lost the majority of my winnings. Natasha told Robert Mizrachi that I was using a bot for my online play due to my slow live play and bad handling of cards. Natasha and I kept playing OFC, but only live where I beat her for decent amounts. In 2017 this happens
https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...tions-1655081/ where no evidence of cheating was ever presented.
Fast forward to 2020, Jaclynn Moskow tells me, via a whatsapp recording, of an incident in 2019 where Jason Mercier referred to me as a known cheater (whether my name was said or not a clear reference was made to me by Mercier). Jaclynn Moskow told me she had a conversation with Zachary Goodman, and as she recalls in 2019 Jason Mercier said to Zachary Goodman in front of other poker players “I don't know if Jaclynn was cheating. I just know she associates with a known cheater, Fernando.” This recording was served as a production of documents to the Merciers on March 2, 2022. Jaclynn admitted she was not sure whether my name was said or not but that undoubtedly whether Jason said my name or not he was referring to me. Zachary Goodman initially agreed to cooperate with me but later changed his mind as he feared repercussions from Jason Mercier’s mobster acquaintances.
One Example of a Nonsensical Argument Accepted by the Lower Court in its Order and Afiirmed by the Appellate Court
• written and video evidence confirms the purported defamation that Plaintiff accuses Defendants of is of Plaintiff’s own making as Plaintiff inexplicably chose to publicly broadcast the “cheating accusations” to the entire online poker playing community at his own peril, in a failed attempt to gain free publicity and profit off an association with Defendants.
Yet, the complaint alleges that almost all the incidents of slander occurred before anything was published online. Moreover, there is no allegation of libel (written defamation). So in the court’s logic I defamed myself even though I made the 2017 post as an attempt to clean my reputation from the many cheating accusations Jason Mercier and Natasha made that in 2016.
The judge stated in his ruling:
• "The parties in this action are all members of an online poker community. In this case, Plaintiff claims he was harmed when Defendants allegedly called him a cheater, however the evidence shows he became his own worst enemy by using YouTube to publicize the alleged defamatory words and hiring an investigator who undermined his case."
However, the investigator testified the following
“Goodman said yeah, I was talking to him [Mr. Mercier] and he [Mr. Mercier] was referring about a cheater and he [Mr. Mercier] said it's not Jacqueline. He [Mr. Mercier] never said it was Fernando, but you know, I [Goodman] kind of suspected it was. So that was what Mr. Goodman said.” (R. 1249).
In the motion for rehearing in the lower court the following investigation report was submitted.
Image of Text Message Between Zach Goodman and Jaclynn MoskowI Mentioned During my Testimony
The trial court was persuaded by many lies, misconstructions and misrepresentations made by their attorney Jason N. Goldman. (it evidently has worked wonders for him in his carreer) and made it seem as if the investigator found nothing and these misrepresentations are what the judge heard repeatedly before he prejudged the case without affording me a full opportunity to respond. See 3 examples below
• So there is zero evidence in the record to refute the fact this is a fraud suit. This is a sham lawsuit. There is nothing that took
place in 2019 involving Mr. Rosas -- Mr. Rosas being implicated as a fraud or a known cheater, by Mr. Mercier, that could ever be used, however incorrectly from a legal standpoint, to revive this barred claim or create a new claim. (R. 1740)
• Zack Goodman didn't say that in August 2019 Mr. Mercier implicated Mr. Rosas as a known cheater. In fact, he didn't say anything close to that. (R. 1739)
• Now, the problem is, Judge, he's admitting that he has no personal knowledge, that any basis to form this lawsuit, and that when we actually, again, and we'll get to that in a minute, the investigator who actually did talk to Mr. Goodman, Mr. Goodman denies it. He didn't say that Mr. Mercier ever said this about Mr. Rosas in 2019 or ever. (R. 1743)

However, if the case does go back to the trial court I will not settle and will take the case all the way to trial. If the motion for punitive damages is granted the total damages will very likely exceed $10 million. Considering I am giving 70% of the equity, then the amounts below are doable.

Challenge to Jason Mercier to Publicly Deny That He Referred to me as a Known Cheater in 2019
Jason you already said in your response to RFA's that:
"I DO NOT RECALL ANY COMMUNICATION WHERE I REFERRED TO ROSAS AS A CHEATER AND DO NOT BELIEVE I EVER DID".
Jason you just need the courage to say the same thing publicly. Be aware Jason, a reference does not require a name to be stated before you say you never said anything about me.
Although the trial court and appellate court were persuaded by the lies and misconstructions of Jason Goldman and both courts ignored established principles of law and justice, clearly, to anyone reasonably prudent, the evidence indicates Jason Mercier, whether he said my name or not, almost certainly referred to me as a known cheater in 2019. If Jason Mercier has any type of honor left and wants to come forward by telling the truth, then I challenge Jason Mercier to publicly deny this issue. Jason Mercier and his attorney both know that Jason Mercier did refer to me as a cheater and they both committed fraud on the courts. Of course Jason Mercier won't deny it publicly and his silence regarding this specific issue will just be more of an indication that such incident did occur. Also, if Jason, Natasha, or any of their representatives make a generic public statement stating something along the lines of:
• “Due to the litigation not having reached its final course our clients, Jason and Natasha, are instructed to not say anything as this might serve against their interest or interfere with the proper course of the judicial process. However, we can confidently and unquestionably say that both the trial court and the appellate court applied the law correctly and due process was given to all the parties. Fernando made pleadings in bad faith and other inappropriate actions. Fernando has serious trouble accepting the fact that he has lost this litigation. We have no doubt the courts made the correct rulings , appropriately struck the complaint as a sham, and we have no interest in discussing this issues further outside the courts. As a gesture of good faith and sympathy to Fernando, the Merciers will be giving up on their entitlement for attorney’s fees, which has already been granted by both of the courts and will be around $200k. The Merciers never acted in bad faith and the relinquishing of their entitlement of attorney’s fees, which Fernando would owe otherwise, serves as concrete proof of their good faith. The Merciers wish Fernando the best in his future endeavors.”
Rest assured that such statement would be absolute bullshit and only those who look at the details and evidence contained in the record and briefs will be able to comprehend this. Yes, they might be truthful in giving up on their entitlement to attorney’s fees, yet with the benefit of knowing that they have succeeded in ruining a man’s career via many lies and deceit not once, but twice. Moreover, they know that having paid close to $200k in attorney's fees is literally a steal for them had the litigation not taken the murky and obscure path they themselves created.
Jason Mercier Will be a Coward and He Will not Deny; If I Receive a Massive Stake I Challenge Him to a Nosebleeds OFC Match
I know Jason Mercier is dishonest, shady and someone who does not have the valor or courage to speak on the truth regarding what he said in 2019. However, he might have a chance to defend his name by doing what he does best, playing poker. Jason Mercier has always been inclined to play OFC against me for nosebleed stakes. With neutral luck, I would certainly crush him in regular pineapple, low in the middle, two on the button and I would almost certainly crush him in progressive pineapple, progressive+ pineapple, jokers+ pineapple. If there is a person or group or persons interested in making a very profitable and massive 6-7 digit stake with a low markup (1.075) and Jason Mercier is willing to play nosebleeds for at least 4000 hands in any of the above OFC variants, then this match will occur. If Jason is willing to play and the match does not happen, have no doubt that it will be for the simple reason that no one offered a massive stake to me. The main point remains; Jason Mercier won’t say what happened in 2019 even though he obviously knows the truth.
I Would Happily Consider/Accept Poker Staking Deals
I'm not just extremely good at OFC, but also any Omaha variants such as PLO4, PLO5, PLO6, PLO High/Low, etc. I am very good at NLH, MataAses (Popular Mexican Poker Variant of Texas Hold Em and 5 Card Stud), and I learn virtually any game very fast. If there is a medium to high stakes poker game you would be interested in staking me, then contact me directly to discuss this in detail. I would very much appreciate it.
Equity Giveaway to Help Others in Dire Need
Over a year ago I had commented to my ex attorney that I would be donating around 30% of my recovery to charity. I am a U.S. Citizen and a Mexican Citizen and in both countries, especially Mexico I see and know of many injustices that are truly atrocious. My story is insignificant compared to hundreds of thousands of much worse injustices people all over the world suffer. These people obviously deserve more help. I must admit that I am not a philanthropic person and that is not exactly something I aspire to be as I believe finding solutions to problems that work in the long term is something more logical and beneficial. Many times I have questioned the current paradigm and thought
“How irrational are humans as a species that we let tons of food go to waste instead of having people suffering of hunger eat it?”
I see this happen daily where I live. Countless fruits and vegetables are thrown away by the markets because they are not sold while many people suffer hunger. For this reason $100k-$200k, contingent on justice being served, will be used to create and run a local organization in Merida Yucatan that creates a system that incentivizes markets and people in extreme poverty. Markets will make food donations to people who have proven their poverty condition and all these donations will be accounted for. As a result, the food will be given to the needy and markets will have proof of a potentially tax deductive donation.
