That is why we have the appeal process. Absent the emergence of sensational facts, this case is so ludicrous however that I doubt it will survive summary judgment, assuming it survives jurisdictional issues.

There is nothing ludicrous about the case. The same tactic was used upon the Libyans. The discovery aspect will be more valuable than any financial settlement, and potentially far more damaging to the Saudis. Remember, the families of these victims have the bank to follow thru with this suit, and are angry enough to be relentless. It's the appearance of guilt after all that counts, not beyond a reasonable doubt. They have the means and motivation, and I for one can't wait.
