As I have been saying, the law as practised is intrinsically corrupt. It is not correctible in its present form. No one wants to hear it, but the days of "a nation of laws" are long gone.
I don’t think so, the $1.00 was for lost wages it seems. $0.00 damages. I think the judge might just “get it”.

Anothr jury of sheeple.
Pretty simple:
When you're suing, your're claiming to have been damaged economically. The jury can't say "you're right", by finding in your favor, then turn around and say "you're wrong" by giving you nothing. If they want to say "you're wrong", they need to find for the guy you're suing.
Yeah, I know, but the company was too stupid to take real advantage of the technology (in favor of my prior invention) because they were afraid of it (they said it was too sophisticated for their O&M people; in reality it was too sophisticated for management :-). I told them, up front, if they didn't pursue it, they'd be broke in five years because the high material cost of the older technology would create a market opening for the Chinese. They had 60% market share so they blew me off. I built the first unit, proved that it worked, and quit.
They hired a Belgian engineering firm to try to duplicate the principles. The Belgian engineers got a bad case of NIH and failed. The managers had too much pride to hire me as a consultant and the firm that built the unit refused to make another system without me (there's nothing quite like treating prototype metal workers and machinists like the artists they are). The managers were stuck.
Five years later, they went bust because the Chinese had taken over the market. The new technology machine ran the entire time, 24/7, 350dpy without a hitch.
No I am afraid it isn’t a joke. But that low life pig sucker Churchhill is a joke. I live close enough to Boulder that I would be happy to go down there the day his American hateing,Terrorist arse kissing carcuss shows up on the CU campus. I have a nice huge bucket of pig guts and slop ready to poor on that Islamic loving, pig farming dirt bag.
Well, only sorta. He has appeal rights from the restitution hearing.
Nice analysis. I think these folks were REASONED and fair.
( I’m not huge on “fair” )
I think two bits would have been more appropriate, considering he’s a two bit professor.

Big Chief Wannabe needs, well, Indian justice. Whatever that is.
Sue’em three more times, Jackass, and you can get yourself a Mochacchino Venti at Starbucks.
Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha!
I’m sure all the native indian tribes he is related to will be rejoicing this weekend.............
Something tells me that a number of jurors were asking the same question. Let’s hope that the public gets to hear from them.
And if the truth be told, CU DID deserve a slap on the wrist for not firing this fraud factory long BEFORE he mouthed out about 9/11. It’s not like he hadn’t done plenty to warrent firing before that. But it was only when the 9/11 stuff hit the national news, that CU’s administration got shoved off their butts to fire him like they knew full well they should have done long ago.
I thought his firing was due to his plagarism.......
Phase two of this mess will be where he asks for the money.
