Interesting, but more important will be the status of the various contracts. 
I also note that the new Laser building subsidiary, Laser Performance LLC, does not appear to be a party to the Lawsuit. I wonder if the dismantling of LPE  that  we have noted else where is connected? If LPE has no assets and no business where do the damages come from? I have not a clue what the implications of that are.

Well 6.8 million worth of paper one $ bills - at least till after appeal - ain't bad.  And ILCA said they were going to pay him as well in the new FRAND scheme.  So be nice to the grey hair!  And his grandkid's grandkids.  He looks to be getting paid, coming and going!!  Not a bad gig if you can get it!!

It's easy. Just design a dinghy that sells 220,000 units. Should be simple enough.

Yep. He missed the boat.

Well he nailed the boat. But appears to be a more humble, less greedy kinda dude.

He actually donated the design. I am sure he would turn in his grave if he saw what that class has become. All those dollars from maniacal parents missed out on...

I know and agree.  But there are lots of good parents as well.  Actually more than not.

I think we must be way behind on our court documents. How did a jury trial happen without us?

Who says it will happen? We could have global pandemic or asteroid or who knows what, and the Laser will be it... back in the '30's you could have said hell, the giant J class yachts will eventually NOT be the biggest, most expensive, most glam racing boats in the world...and here we are 80 years later and the J's are right at the pinnacle...Lasers could be still be the shit in 100 years....things tend to accelerate to a certain level and then hold a level....

Good find. You must have a bunch of time on your hands today.
