Thendic-Amiga Lawsuit Judge DENIIES Sanctions Against Amiga : Comment 45 of 94 | ANN.lu |

I must admit that I thought the motion for sanctions - and the sanction requested - looked unreasonable, so I'm glad the judge didn't allow himself to be bullied.
However, one should not start counting chickens. This does not absolve Amiga Inc of culpability, and they will lose the case by default unless they hire and brief new lawyers pretty quick.
In the context of their war for survival, this is a small skirmish that's gone Amiga Inc's way.
---------------------
The judge is bending over backwards to allow Amiga EVERY possibility of a defense.
billyboy is probably talking about another "round of funding" - the judge is allowing enough time before the Dec trial date to allow billyboy to get new counsel and review the case and then to continue onward.
An interesting question will be where did Amiga acquire the funds to retain new counsel? A double edged sword.
If new counsel isn't obtained then Thendic will get a defaualt judgement on what they originally asked for anyway.
At this point - the ball is in billyboy's "court" - (pun intended) - right now it is up to him whether Amiga, Inc (as it presently is) lives or dies. |
