The good part was that Holder and his DOJ thugs got overturned in this case. Might make them a little hesitant to act impetuously based on politics the next time. Probably not, but its a thought. This administration does not seem to learn from their mistakes. Now that you have brought my attention to the losses incurred by Gibson in just fighting this debacle, I can only imagine. Whew.

this man, Holder, and his boss, are the most corrupt
people whom I have ever seen in public office.......
they make me puke. -- j

Whoa

Yes

I disagree that it is all about the money. It IS all about the power, they already have the money!!!

Well, we have a nonfunctioning and partial justice system, so the fact that our society is no longer functioning correctly is now explained.

Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.

Thanks. This club builds character!

I understand. As did the characters in AS, we all have lost a lot. Several friends of mine and I had a biofuels to energy, fuels, and chemicals business that thrived on absolving liberals of their guilt, before we shrugged as a group in early 2009 and sold the business. Believe me, I get it, Commander. Nice to meet you, and welcome to the club.

Why do you think the Ebola thing is being so screwed up. Because the Federal Government need s the cover of course!
The 'Slime Stream Media' is in Obummer's pocket and Fox is fascinated by the upcoming election.

Oh thanks for that.

Here is a link to the story from February that also includes Cal Fire. Corruption, theft and land grabbing all in one story and right out of Atlas Shrugged. http://www.sacbee.com/news/state/califor...

I shall not travel this path again.....

I posted my debacle up the line to dbhalling.
The proceedings mentioned have caused me to miss a financial peak in business, combined with the diversion of funds toward legal representation, combined with the interference of a substantive single contract by my opponent, of which all were going to be allocated to expansion of a specialty repairables business in the N.D. oil fields. I've lost market by not being the first in the area...est. gross profit of over 250K.

"Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity."
Lord Acton

It is a sad fact of both the legal system and society in general that some people believe entangling and confusing issues shows great intelligence.

I have been involved in both legal and other discussions like this.

It gets more personal for me... SPI is a local company for us, and they own or have rights to most of the land up here. They just went through an adjacent parcel to ours, and thinned it (and did a damned nice job IMO)... I spoke to one of their people and they said it was because of the Ponderosa fire, the potential of lawsuits from the local homeowners, and other issues he couldn't discuss"...

Thanks for the article!

Yes. Having a functioning and impartial justice system is necessary for society to function.

Not really that good. Do you realize how much lost time and money this cost for Gibson Guitars?

It's like kicking over a rock and being surprised when the creepy-crawlies slither out.

I hadn't heard that the settlement was returned. that IS good news

it is all about the money and nothing more.
we know the legal(?) system is corrupt so what is new about that.the reality is that this will not make the news because even those who aren't in power now want to be in power later and they ALL want our money.again its all about the money and nothing more.

Just another day in Obamaland. Just another day.

I have heard that Gibson has had their materials returned and the settlement returned.
This makes two cases against the DOJ which did not go the way they wanted it to. Good.

The "legal" system I'm involved in at present has allowed my opponent to claim....
"I have a patent"....he does not
"I have a trade secret".....he does not
"I have a trademark"...he does not
We've asked my opponent to disclose any documents or notes...he has not
The counter-suit is now at "Breach of contract and Replevin"
The case is more complex than this simple example. However; the "Court" has allowed my opponent an avenue to obfuscate the issue at every corner. The only redeeming aspect is the order to allow a new deposition of "him".
The only "winners" seem to be the lawyers, stripping both of "us" of earned wealth.
I estimate "justice" would have been served within two days of myself and my opponent sitting in front of a judge with our respective evidence and testimonies.
