6. Full of distortions and exaggerations?

The judges of the Federal District Courts can and do impose sanctions upon attorneys who file complaints without a factual and legal basis for doing so.

The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, in contrast to the rules of pleading in some State jurisdictions, require the complaint to describe the wrongful action with sufficient specificity to put the defendant or defendants on notice.

This case was not filed in a State court. Nor is the complaint lacking in specificity.

In contrast to what you presume and say, the complaint was filed in a Federal District Court. The attorneys who filed the comlaint are representing to the Federal District Court that they investigated the factual basis for the complaint before filing it with the court.
