Greer v. Moon, No. 20-cv-00647 (D. Utah Sep. 16, 2020)

[Apteryx Owenii]

Dude they're pro bono. You're out of your mind if you seriously think Russ can afford even bottom of the barrel IP lawyers in a federal circuit court appeal.

to be fair, it's also insane that anyone decided to represent russ pro bono

True. The fucking shockwaves that caused here were insane.

Until you understand they're actually doing it to make IP law that is absolutely horrible for the public at large. I really consider them more anti-bono than pro bono.

I don't think they appreciated the mess they stepped into either. I seem to remember Null saying the fucks tried to get him to settle repeatedly, and it's why the case dragged so much. It eventually led to oral arguments and then the panel decision.

they thought they had a slam dunk, probably after reading the Wikipedia page about the defendant in Russ' case. Now they are staring down the barrel of an En Banc 10th circuit hearing and if not that a guaranteed appeal to SCOTUS.

this is not the salami these corporate hacks intended to slice. If the stakes were not so high for my favorite shitposting forum, I would even say this is entertaining to watch play out.

And under circumstances where even the panel that made the original decision apparently think it's possible they fucked up.

And where a "clarification" of the law could very well make life more difficult for the massive corporations these cocksuckers suck up to, instead of worse for the public, which is what they want.

Sucks to be them. While it's by no means guaranteed this ultimately turns out well for Null and the site, they have to be sweating at least at this moment.

Yeah, from Jan 3rd to ~June 3rd. Null accused them of stalling this in order to bankrupt him.

It's this thought that gives me warm fuzziness.

Pro bono? More like pro homo in my opinion.

I remember there's an instagram comment where Russell expressly said "My lawyers think we can bankrupt him"

Thanks, @DSP's Tax Lawyer for catching this all the way back then.

 

[TheOtherSideofMakeBelieve]

Is that likely to be helpful in any sort of motion for fees or having him declared vexatious?

I consider it anti bono. These faggots are sucking up to IP trolls in the hopes of getting jobs to make life worse for actual humans while making life better for copyright trolls, like the turds who spew out Internet porn constantly, then spew copyright troll lawsuits to extort settlements from normies.

Fuck these turds.

If Null ever files one, possibly. Worked for Sargon.

Imagine being anti Bono. I mean, U2 was never my thing, but he seems like a chill enough dude.

 

[A_right_horrorshow]

Kill yourself or read the OP. Whichever you prefer.

Sorry, you're right. My mistake. I've been following that many court cases recently they're all blurring into one. Confused Montagraphs lawyers who are taking cash but a reduced rate with Russ's.

 

[mindlessobserver]

Well my guess of a week has been completely felted. Only a federal appeals would take a month or two to answer a "yes or no" question.

Null posted this to Telegram:



Tl;dr: En banc denied.

You gonna go for a hail mary and appeal to the SC? I hope so, because KF ending up in the Supreme Court would be extremely funny.
