I'm not a lawyer but deal with legal stuff - they are not open to legal action.

Hey but that hearsay seems like it is a solid foundation to build a case on!

“Your honor, the defendant said some things in an interview that they don’t agree with anymore and I want to sue!”

“Sue for what?”

“Sue to make them believe the thing they said!!!”

Lol.

Now, now. They are open to legal action…

…just not anything that would survive a motion to dismiss.

I guess it depends on your definition of "open".

Also no a lawyer, but... my understanding was that you're always open to legal action from anybody. They might not have a very good case and they might just get laughed out of court, but they can still sue you. Is that not the case?

Edit: Or I guess as you said in a reply to a sibling comment, you might only count it as "open to legal action" if you have a decent chance of losing.
