Motion for Summary Judgement Against Amiga to be Heard on Nov 21, 2003 in Washington Federal District Court.
Motion for Summary Judgement Against Amiga to be Heard on Nov 21, 2003 in Washington Federal District Court.
It also looks like Amiga is again without counsel.
"This matter comes before the Court on "Plantiffs' Motion for Judgement and dismissal of Counter Claims for Lack of Representation." Although corporations must be represented by counsel, defendant's failure to retain new counsel has not yet been given rise to a sanctionable failure to prosecute. Plantiff's motion for judgement and dismissal of the counterclaims is DENIED. Defendant must, however, obtain counsel to defend this litigation if it hopes to avoid an adverse ruling on plaantiff's pending motion for summary judgement.
DATED this 7th day of November,2003.

Motion for Summary Judgement Against Amiga to be Heard on Nov 21, 2003. : Comment 236 of 263 | ANN.lu |

I was just looking at Samface's documents, and I discovered something interesting: the date where Genesi wants a summary judgement, ie this Friday, is also the date the discovery phase of the trial is supposed to end. Could it be that Genesi doesn't want the judge to look at the evidence too closely?

Samface's documents, thats great. Thats also a silly theory, first of all the judge has already looked at all the evidence presented so far in the case, he has made comments about the evidence in regard to the motions. Amiga Inc's lawyers left 2 months ago, McEwen personally filed yesterday for a two month extension because he still does not have legal counsel so nothing new on discovery from Amiga Inc. McEwen also is about to get that funding according to his note to the judge yesterday, just like he has been about to get funding since August 2002. Same story for 16 months now, you have to love that. Unless the judge is even more incredibly lenient then he has already been, he is going to rule for Thendic on Friday, two weeks ago he basically gave McEwen his last chance, and McEwen didnt take the gift and get himself a lawyer. He didnt catch on that:
"Defendant must, however, obtain counsel to defend this litigation if it hopes to avoid an adverse ruling on the plaintiffs' pending motion for summary judgment."
Would be a bad thing for Amiga Inc. Instead he still doesnt get a lawyer, files on his own behalf to obtain an extension on a case he has already stretched way out (as he has done with all his court cases).
