Nitro: Case dismissed

Happy to report to you that the Nitro case in Missouri has been dismissed by a federal judge.
The ruling itself is under seal at this point, so we can’t discuss or quote the specific findings and conclusions — at least, not yet.
But the fact that the case has been dismissed is a matter of public […]

Bigger and better

it was another billion-dollar year for Quixtar in North America.*

While we were out

It’s been quiet here lately. Not uneventful—just quiet.
And we apologize if seems we stayed quiet too long. It wasn’t intentional.
There were no big breaking news headlines to bring to you. And there was also at least a little fatigue after months of heated—and healthy—debate on this site. Our friend AMBA even ended up with […]

Why we fight, part 1

After being on the defensive for 20 straight legal attacks, we filed suit yesterday against the corporation that owns TEAM.
We filed suit because the single legal case we brought (and won) in this matter listed Orrin Woodward as a defendant—but Woodward then claimed to have magically disappeared as the manager of TEAM before the case […]

One motion, one meeting

We were back in court in Grand Rapids today, seeking a contempt motion that would have halted a planned TEAM meeting in Louisville.
We don’t have the ruling yet—we’ll post it when we do—but the judge said he would not stop the meeting.
Not what we wanted to hear.
But it was one motion, and one meeting.
Orrin Woodward […]

Guerrillas in the midst

Yes, we did.
We filed suit this week in Ottawa County, Michigan seeking to learn more about a number of “John Does” who have cropped up online since our dispute with Orrin Woodward and TEAM began.
Because we believe we can prove that some of their sites and posts were engineered or directed by Woodward, TEAM, their […]

Perspection effect

We respect perspectives. But they can’t hide facts.
First, the “new” Texas case mentioned in “Spaghetti.” This was a brand new case, with TEAM as the plaintiffs, attacking from a whole different angle than they did in California case. Dismissed.
The “other” Texas case: Simmons et al v. Quixtar will be heard de novo – “from […]
