The Pirate Bay's retrial just lost its sails.

[Quiksilver]

No retrial.

Now they just got to wait on the appeal.

 

[MotF Bane]

How much did the RIAA pay the Court of Appeals?

 

[darkxshade]

Now they have to link the court of appeals to the RIAA thus making their decision on no retrial a biased one.

Update: As a reader points out, defendant Peter Kolmisoppi Sunde has just tweeted: "The Pirate Bay will now file charges against Sweden for violation for Human Rights. More info later.

LOL

 

[The Boston Dangler]

that court has less integrity than the so-called pirates

 

[Gothgar]

lol
wow

 

[tasmanian]

No reason for a retrial, just because the judge belongs to a group that is against the defendants, will in no way impact his judgment about them.

If that judge was unbiased then I'm a 18 year old girl with an amazing figure and more money than Bill Gates...

From the tweet-

The Pirate Bay will now file charges against Sweden for violation for Human Rights. More info later. (The bias-judge is himself biased...)

Hey baby, want to jump in my white van? I got some candy.

Oops, you said 18 years old, damn!

 

[Auggie]

It is pretty astounding.

Listen, I'm about as anti-pirating as you can get, within reason... I think that people that torrent songs, shows and movies *are* stealing, literally, it's theft. But I simply am flabbergasted that the judge was ruled to be un-biased. It's unbelievable. No justice system can be perfect, but that's pretty much an outright conspiracy against the defendants.

But Eka and the other judges concluded that simply endorsing the principles of copyright law was no grounds for disqualification in a trial; copyright was written into Swedish law, and judges can't be called "biased" simply because they support existing laws.

This sounds pretty reasonable to me. Would you call a judge biased if he supported anti-theft laws and proceeded to put thieves behind bars?

If the judge was a member of the "amputate thief's hands club", I would think that they may be a bit impartial.

Actually, they weren't the thieves even by the strictest definition. They facilitated it.

Hope they're locked up. Fuck 'em.
