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. |
IANAL but; Surely, because of the contract stating, and Hyperion accepting, jurisdiction under Washington & Seatle courts, thats where any new lawsuit would have to be held, and not New York. Otherwise Hyperion could just as well claim that any new lawsuit has to be under the jurisdiction of the Belgium courts. _________________ Peter Swallow.

could be, but how about this?

That's your premise. I believe it massively overstates recent events.
A judge (who was indeed somewhat confused on a rather central point) declared that things weren't crystal clear yet, and that also no damage was being actively done right now which could not be cured by paying money, and that thus no injunction was necessary. Or, in colloquial terms: "It's clear as mud, and nothing is happening, anyway. Get on with it!"
Many (many :) years back I played in a soccer team; That team's centre forward had a habit of kicking the kickoff straight at the opposition's goal. So if we won the coin toss, the very first action of the game would be a long-distance shot at our opponents' goal. As far as I remember, each and every one of those shots, throughout the season, either missed or was saved. We never scored in that first action. And yet, we won plenty of games that year....

The brilliant move IMHO was Hyperion moving so very quick to lock things into the lawsuit thats in progress.! |
To *try* and do that, you mean, right? They filed a motion. I would be extremely surprised if their motion was approved. |
