A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Not the ruling itself, but corporations file all sorts of motions before and during the initial trial specifically so that if a motion is denied, voila! Now the jury verdict and compensation decision isn't what they're challenging, but rather technical aspects from rulings by the judge overseeing the trial court ... admission or inadmission of evidence is always a popular one.
To suggest that anyone else has the sort of law firms on retainer to play this game all the way to the top is folly. It's just another way in which the system is rigged.
