This question resolves to "Yes" if Hans receives a judgment or settlement of $1M or greater. This includes if the venue changes and the suit is refiled in a different jurisdiction. If the settlement is not public, it will be unresolved. Any other alternative will be resolved as a "No."

An actual lawyer weighs in:

He basically agrees with my take, but adds the important point that Missouri is probably the wrong venue for a suit against chess.com.
@AaronHamlin, how would this resolve if Hans had to file a new lawsuit in a different state?
@PeterBorah Added an update to the description. The venue is less important to the question than the result.
The claims against chess.com strike me as less obviously absurd than the others, if they're in fact true. But I kinda doubt that latter part.
