Title: NCSoft Vs. Marvel

 Well it looks like the case got thrown out.  I like the reason too...

I know there was probably a thread about this in the past here, but I decided against resurrecting it because its gotta be over a month old.

 Geez, what Marvel did "i.e. the evidence was created by the Plaintiff (!)" seems like something out of a lame story arc in a web comic :rolleyes:

But it's not "thrown out", just most of the claims are... it seems like a few items will still be tried, however I doubt that actual DAMAGE (required in a civil suit) as well as DIRECT CAUSE BY NCSOFT (the other requirement in a civil suit) will be able to be proven by FACTUAL EVIDENCE (again, a requirement, not just a boogeyman theory "it COULD happen your honor...")

My 2 bits anyway. I'm not a lawyer, but in a way Da Law has become a sorta hobby for me; I been reading a lot especially direct from Black's Law Dictionary, and especially countless heavily-crosslinked Wiki entries (most conveniently accessible via TheFreeDictionary.com, for example Civil Law , Cause of action etc.)
