What happened here is that Itec sent a cheque for $25k and demanded the OS. This was probably intended as a stop-the-clock move, making it completely unambiguous that $25k were indeed paid within 6 months of December 24th, 2006.


could be, but how about this?

Amiga Inc. has for the most part lost in court with the case they have. So lets start a new lawsuit in New York with a new Judge. So another shell company sends out a check. If Hyperion takes the check, or returns it they can sue either way.

The brilliant move IMHO was Hyperion moving so very quick to lock things into the lawsuit thats in progress.!

Well, you could just go and *read* the documents. Anyone can open a PACER account, and $0.08 per page are really not too much.



Thanks for posting those, but the 3 new docs are now listed on Justia's docket page. You may want to save yourself some bandwidth and edit your link.

Speculation:

Hyperion *did* sign a contract with Itec, which quite clearly says "pay $25k, get the OS", so there can be no doubt that in April 2003, Itec was entitled to buy the OS from Hyperion. It's a two page contract, not a lot of room for interpretation there.
Now whether that right ended up at AI(D) eventually or not could be under debate. Hyperion have made a big spiel about the "not" part. So Itec calls their bluff, and says "look, guys, we have this contract. We signed it, you signed it. Here is your $25k. Please hand us the OS, or explain why not", with the implicit "You do, after all, say that we never transferred this right".


Clever move, I must say. I like it :)
