Why shouldn't the court entertain it? If Character is innocent, shouldn't they have the opportunity to have the accusations disproven?

The case is so blatantly frivolous it should have been thrown out. Nobody should have to spend legal fees defending claims that they're responsible for somebody killing themselves over saying "come home to me".

Won't they get those fees back if dismissed or if the plaintiff doesn't prevail?

[applfanboysbgon]

My understanding is that this is generally not the case in the US.

[swader999]

That would explain much. I'm not a USA citizen.
