In case you couldn't tell, I've taken a bit of time off. Mainly because the holidays have meant that there's been little activity to report anyway.

Here's the scheduling order for the case. It's not difficult to comply with from a time standpoint, but he's also indicating that he will be hard-nosed about the time-line: "This schedule will not be altered/amended."

====================

MINUTE entry before the Honorable David H. Coar:

After denying e360's attempt to reboot this case, Judge Zagel decided to review all of the non-routine matters (in other words, substantive rulings). The following is his decision concerning the merits of e360's request to get a mulligan: "Having reviewed each of these rulings, the court finds no compelling reason to revisit them.

Just in!

Here is the Petition for the Writ of Certiorari filed with the US Supreme Court today by the Commonwealth of Virginia.

I couldn't find this anywhere, so I asked the Virginia AG's office if they would kindly send me a copy of the Petition filed today.

Just so you know what this Petition means in the scope of things: Nothing.

Here are the oral arguments in Gordon v. Virtumundo.

If you can read WMA files, then you should select that one as it is 1/9th the size of the MP3 format. It's also the original from the 9th Circuit's site.

For the convenience of those who cannot listen to WMA files I have converted it to MP3.

Again, these documents are far more interesting than the actual motion is. And again, the redactions make it kind of pointless to copy it here to text.

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS
EASTERN DIVISION

e360 INSIGHT, LLC, an Illinois Limited
Liability Company, and DAVID LINHARDT,
an individual,
Plaintiffs,

v.

THE SPAMHAUS PROJECT, a company
limited by guarantee and organized under the
laws of England, a/k/a THE SPAMHAUS
PROJECT, LTD.,
Defendant.

This is actually more interesting than the motion itself. This lays out the reasons for Spamhaus' motion and why they think it means that they should win.

However, the redactions in the document render it useless for copying here. You'll just have to get the documents yourself.

Here is Spamhaus's Motion for Summary Judgment on Damages.

These documents basically ask the judge to rule in Spamhaus' favor because (surprise!) e360Insight and David Linhardt can't actually prove their damages to a "reasonable certainty" as demanded by the 7th Circuit.
