Result of the court hearing 12th July 2010

at this point, i want it to just end, If we have to go to an official lawsuit, i would rather we just lose the case & move on, i am getting tired of all this

Real talk... as the lawsuit could take years to conclude. Let's hope that a decision is made a.s.a.p...... everyone is tired of waiting (9 months)!
 
U know these people always have way with words! If u read that LA times article Jayo2k posted, it says something that the new results would be out of friday! So yes, if the injuction is not granted, the results will be released on July 15!

P.S: I can't stop laughing at these DV2012 drama along with comments on these forum...U guys should keep it coming because I'm entertaining myself!

Maybe we should ask mr. White what "on or about" really means. I bet he'll pull out his kick @ss 1919 dictionary lol

"on" means 0.00 ET (15th july) that is, thursday night. "about" means anything within the 15th july. Hope that helps.

Interesting comment from the founder of the 22,000 hopes FB page:
the judge commented, at the beginning of the hearing yesterday, that making a decision about the injunction is equivalent to making a deicion about our case. She sees the issue as involving not only the 22,000 who knew they were selected but also the 78,000 who were selected and never knew it.
Which means it's either a reinstatement of the full first drawing, or a second drawing on July 15.

Yes, I ve always said it that if there are to be a re-instatement, it would be for all the 1st May winners because I see no wrong the 78k who didn't check their status before the site went down did! But, I really do not see the likely hood of reinstating a result that 98% of the winners came from the first two days! It would be injustice to the rest that applied on the later days, so yes, a re-draw was the best measure to satisfy everyone!
 
Damn, that sucks.

IMO, these really sucks for the ex22k winners because, the Judge having such perception will make it difficult for the ex winners. I mean common, it's illogical to re-instate results the 98% of winners came from the first two days? I bet ya, these was DOS defense strategy to make the Judge see things that way...Hahaaha don't try them!

Just earlier I thought even if the ex winners got their win back, the rest of us would still stand a chance at getting selected among 78 000 new ones. But now It's clear, It's either them or us. Whatever she decides, that would be it. How intense. Thousands of lives depend on that one person now.

Its quite tight and only means any victory for either side would depend on the randomness issue. So its about if judge thinks its random or not. If its random 'May 1st' results will be restored but if its not random then 'july 15' results will stand.
 
I always wondered why the 22,000 chose to ignore the other 78000 winners, instead how I understand it, they called for their win to be recognized but the 78000 who didn't check thrown back in with the others and redrawn.

The big difference is that a promise was made to the 22,000 and not to those 78,000.
 
when will the judge make his descision? Do you think him, DOS lawyers & Mr White can meet to reach up an agreement? Damn where is Kwame when we need him?

There are not another 78,000 other winners. As long as someone did not check the status he is not a winner.

Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, we will see.
