After denying e360's attempt to reboot this case, Judge Zagel decided to review all of the non-routine matters (in other words, substantive rulings). The following is his decision concerning the merits of e360's request to get a mulligan: "Having reviewed each of these rulings, the court finds no compelling reason to revisit them.

Can you say "grounds for appeal"?

I knew you could.

Judge Coar has denied e360's request to give the case a reboot. I think it's a good call on his part, but you can be certain that e360 will seek to get this decision overturned, probably in an interlocutory appeal.

David Linhardt, and his various sock puppets, are now trying to dismiss Comcast's countersuit and 3rd party complaints. Among the complaints he makes is that Comcast did not attach even one single email to the complaint. That strikes me as a dangerous demand to make.
