On September 15th, Judge Judith Sheindlin ("Judge Judy")
set a trial date of September 24th as the result of the frivolous
litigation brought forward by Innovative Rasterizers Unlimited. Despite
formal complaints registered with the United States Justice Department,
it appears this case will be brought to full trial.
THE NEWS RELEASE
September 24th Trial
Date Set in FCC/IRU vs JHL Case
TEXAS, September 15
/PRNewswire/ -- A trial date of September 24, 1999 has finally been
set in the FCC/IRU vs JHL case. Judge Judith Sheindlin made the annoucement
early this morning.
Despite
the sluggish pace so far, both sides remain optimistic about the outcome.
"I think we're gonna win this one. I can feel it in the air tonight.
Whoa-oooh.", stated Innovative Rasterizer Unlimited's CEO Dave
Abbott.
Joel's Head Laboratories CEO Greg Major was
quoted as saying, "This whole fiasco just makes me [deleted]
nuts. Is our society so [deleted] screwed up that a honest business
can't make a [deleted] dollar without every little [deleted] coming
out of the [deleted] woodwork to get his piece of the [deleted] pie?
It just makes me [deleted] nuts, that's all. Lousy [deleted] [deleted]
inbred [deleted] humpers! Oh yeah - we're gonna win this [deleted]
trial, too!"
Industry insiders have speculated that the
trial has caused some tension in upper management at JHL. The public
relations department at JHL, on the other hand, feverishly denies
those claims stating that "all is well" and "there
is as much tension as might be expected in this situation".
In a suprise move, Judge Sheindlin announced
that the trial would be held in Houston. The jury, as expected, has
been sequestered. The trial is expected to last at least one month
while both sides present their arguments before the jury.
