Chapterhouse filed its notice of appeal earlier this week. Their opening brief is due in early February, and I'll post a copy sometime shortly thereafter.

ETA: For those of you who might be...

There was a bunch of movement in this case yesterday. Judge Kennedy denied both parties' motions for new trial or judgment as a matter of law. He also denied both parties motions for costs, which is...

Would you mind pointing me to the claim you're talking about? I'm at the brain-leaking-from-ears part of the semester right now, and I'm having a hard time finding it on my own.

That said, denial...

I respectfully dissent. I probably would not have put things exactly the same way that GW did in the reply (but it's worth pointing out that GW did not say that the verdict was going to force CHS out...

GW included a screenshot from this thread in papers filed earlier today in the case - the post where Chapterhouse announced that they were intending to appeal. I'll try to upload it to Scribd in the...

Weighing in a bit late - I've been tracking the case closely, but the 2L course load is pretty intense, so I haven't had as much of a chance to either talk hobby or work on projects much lately.

The American Rule is that each side bears its own attorneys fees. (There are exceptions to the rule, including in some intellectual property cases, but this is extremely unlikely to be one of them.)...

Disclaimer - I am a law student, but not a lawyer.

Some new documents have turned up on the court's docket since this thread was last updated. Both sides are seeking costs under Federal Rule of...

Unfortunately for that scenario, the jury found that Chapterhouse's "generic power armor shoulder pad" infringed GW's copyrights. The jury also found that several of the other relatively...

Actually, you have it almost exactly backward.

In appellate law, there are what are known as "standards of review." If and when this case is appealed, you will see a fair amount of discussion of...

Hmmmm. Let's see...

The mounting point is obviously quite different (hand-held versus harness mount), the end non-business end of the weapon is clearly distinct, and the overall shape is also...

Less than six months, actually. Based on the various new product announcement, you released yours mid-to-late June, 2011. I ordered FWs figure that had one in mid-December of that year.

In terms...

Thanks for the more detailed explanation. I'm a current 2L, so I am (I promise) more familiar with the Federal Rules than it might have appeared from the very sketchy explanation I provided in the...

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59 governs motions for new trials, and motions to alter or amend a judgment. These motions are rarely granted, but they get filed often enough that the judge listed...

For those interested, I've downloaded the judgment from PACER, and have it up on Scribd. It's in five separate parts, because that's how it came off the official site.

I've got absolutely no idea what this one could be, and I'm going to use a lot of words saying so.

1: Almost certainly not an army book/codex if the 1-week notice thing means "1 week before actual...

That's actually exactly why I think that the script is generally speaking a good thing - but like all good things, only when used as intended and in moderation.

Ideally, the employees should be...

No, it was the only call they could have made.

1/3 of deployments are Dawn of War, with reserves required. The whole "OK, I put down one company command squad and two big platoons; turn two you...

Seriously, if you can't laugh at a well-executed joke army, it's time to take a break from the hobby.

Playing Orks (usually Evil Sunz), I try to never take less than four, and frequently take the full 6. That's partly to make sure I can take objectives, but partly because my play style usually...

Just as an uneducated guess from that tiny bit of fluff, I'm expecting him to be more Sly Marbo/Lone Wolf-ish than Telion like.

I think we all agree on the benefits of using bozy to make the full load of special weapons in the kit - and in passing I'd note that the fantasy ork warriors regiment is a bit cheaper per ork, and...

Lootas are an outrageously good defensive unit. As such, their role in an ork army is extremely limited.

Lootas lack sufficient range to command the entire board, so they need to be placed...

I think you're making the right choice. Flame templates are fun, but there's also a great deal of fun to be had in watching your opponents discover just how many Str 4 power weapon attacks can come...

Probably models, fluff, and rules, in approximately that order. The models have to catch my interest, and the background has to be good enough for me to be able to get some kind of feel for the army....
