tl;dr: Good news for the FTC - The Judge has allowed the original complaint to be amended. Bad news for Butterfly Labs.

IT IS ORDERED FTCs Motion and Suggestions in Support to Amend Complaint (Doc. #274) is
GRANTED. Plaintiff is directed to file its amended complaint within three days. It is further
ORDERED FTCs Motion to Strike Affirmative Defenses (Doc. #254) is DENIED AS MOOT.
Signed on 5/13/15 by District Judge Brian C. Wimes. (Baldwin, Joella)

Count III is just awesome to see up there.

Quote
Plaintiff alleges Defendants’ practices
of failing to provide paid-for machines or services as promised and refusing to promptly refund
payments caused substantial injury to consumers
. ...  consumers did not
have a free and informed choice to avoid harm because they could not foresee that Defendants
would fail to deliver or provide the services and refuse refunds
.

@ Sonny

Considering most of these issues were caused by Inaba (Josh) I recommend as that you send Inaba the defense bill. As he seems to be largely the cause of your court battles (in my opinion).

Just a suggestion, you don't have to follow through with this suggestion. In fact, you can always foot the bill for Inaba (Josh) sake as I know you are a kind soul and it is an issue between you and Inaba. Thanks for being a great friend and being there for him. I really respect you for holding up [more than your share] of the "mistakes".

Funny thing with the timing and getting the counts in. With these now in the record for the court's consideration, I wonder how the FTC will make use of them in the case.

Hopefully by driving to court on the day of the trial in a steamroller.

I have an overwhelming premonition that many BFL datastores are going to vanish mysteriously before then ... kinda like how the forum vanished. I bet BFL is quietly squirming to hide.

Exhibit A

Btw can someone screencap that? Roll Eyes

Edit: titillating preview... and now I wonder if he and Bruce Bourne will become flat mates. Cheesy
