Campbell would probably settle for the right to be re-admitted to SnF. It
would probably be the most cost-effective way for SnF to settle this case.
But then, they'd probably have to go through the whole process again in a
couple of years....

You really think it would take that long?

I'll put a buck on him being ejected (re-ejected, rejected?) before
the second year is over.

Ah, well, this is where it gets fun. Campbell would be an idiot to accept
such a settlement if it *didn't* have some sort of provision to prevent SnF
from just throwing him out the next time he shows up. And SnF would be an
idiot to *grant* such a provision, since it would give Campbell carte blanc
to do *whatever* he wants with no fear of penalty.

If there is negotiation under way, one might suspect it is probably similar
in tone to that which took place after Campbell's last ejection. To quote
the questioning of Bill Eickhoff, from the transcript of Campbell's first
suit against SnF:
-------------------------------------------------
Q. And for what reason were you unable to resolve matters with Mr.
Campbell?

A. [Eickhoff] Basically, everytime we got to the point where we thought
we could have a meeting, Mr. Campbell escalated his activities in calling
county commissioners and city officials and putting basically, we felt,
lies on the internet and trying to force things to happen. We were trying
to get to a point where we could sit down, but at no point did he offer any
resolution, he only offered demands.

Q. On the one occasion when you flew to Winter Haven with Mr. Henderson
and met with Mr. Campbell, did you believe you had resolved the problem
between you?

A. Yes.

Q. Did Mr. Campbell keep his word?

A. No.
