Amigo follows up on serious allegations about H&P and says: "I also just asked Unisys as it says here, and am waiting for a reply. If true, H&P could probably be forced to close."
[ If H&P indeed didn't pay royalties for Unisys' GIF algorithm, they might not be forced to close per se, but if this is indeed true, and Unisys decides to sue, they might have to pay some serious fines. Also note that while this is not in unmoderated, it's highly speculative, unconfirmed and generally should be taken with the usual grain of salt - CK ]

Serious allegations about H&P : Comment 72 of 164 | ANN.lu |
Posted by BGB on 09-Nov-2001 13:19 GMT | In reply to Comment 64 (Ben Hermans/Hyperion): @ Ben:
"X and Y can sue each other and y and z (on the basis of the contract) but that's where it ends."
Well, I don't remember the country you come from but in Germany things are different on this. If Z violates X's property, then OF COURSE Z can sue X. Why should they not be able to do that. Z can also sue Y and X can sue Y for lying at them.. don't know what law you have studied but if you want to get to know ANYTHING about German contract law the BGB (Bürgerliches GesetzBuch) is a good point to start at (www.amazon.de). Enjoy your studies ;-) |
