The highlights of todays order include such gems as :
- The judge determining that Loubie did indeed hold copyright to her model, despite Ryan Simms claims otherwise. Which unless I’m much mistaken means by implication the judge just ruled that Just 3D Theft did in fact steal other people’s intellectual property
- 3DR are just as unqualified as Just 3D Theft to publish a legal opinion, but if Ryan D. Cockwomble can publish his opinion on copyright issues, then so can anyone else even if they’re ‘ using somewhat “unflattering” words‘.
- Just 3D Theft lost revenue for breaking eBay’s policies, but presented no evidence as to what policy they broke, and can’t demonstrate that 3DR’s article had anything to do with it
- No one knows why eBay shut down just 3D print, it might be due to Loubie’s complaint, but no evidence has been presented to support any reason
I’m obviously summarizing from a position of blissful ignorance of American law. Anyway the tone of the whole judgement is rather lovely and it’s not that long, so go read it yourselves.
Ryan D. Cockwomble may of course choose to appeal the two cases he’s lost so far, he’ll at least be back in court once more to fight the appeal case against Stratasys. Given Just 3D Maroons track record with reality and evidence so far I’m not holding out much hope for them prevailing in that case or any appeals they choose to bring.
In regards to the appeal of the first case lose, it is past the filing deadline for an appeal and I didn’t find any entry for an appeal on the docket.
I’m assuming you mean the first case that Just 3D Print lost, in which case probably just the Stratasys appeal to go – unless J3P keep turning up like bad pennies
Yeap. Just the Stratasys one. In following that, I see they are going for arbitration instead of a trial.

and enter Stratasys for the name to search.
Thanks for the link and that’s a shame a full appeal to a higher court would have set a better precedent.
Yeah. But I think Stratasys is just trying to get the judgement removed. I hope they have also filed a complaint against the judge for the way he acted.
