Funny PSA grading lawsuit

This one likely won't last long, but thought it was worth sharing.

Submitter of a signed Ty Cobb W600 Sporting Life, is looking for more than $1 million, as PSA rejected the Cobb autograph but apparently authenticated (didn't encase) the actual card.

It's the authentication of the card that I found to be the most interesting part of the complaint, and PSA's lawyers again confirm the authentication in their motion to dismiss. "The card itself is authentic, the autograph on that card is of questionable authenticity".

Not great images, but isn't this just an "etsy" aged reprint (fake card)?

Net54 and other threads share similar examples, with the exact same auto on alleged fake cards, dating back several years. Did PSA actually think the card was legit?
