Pirate Bay Retrial Denied, Judge Declared Unbiased

bonch writes "A Swedish court has ruled that the judge in the PirateBay trial is unbiased and there will be no retrial. Stockholm District Court defended the judge's membership in copyright organizations as a necessity to 'keep up with developments in the field' and that merely endorsing the idea of copyright law was not grounds for a mistrial. The defendants must now rely on the appeal process, while one defendant has written on his Twitter account that the PirateBay will also be suing Sweden for human rights violations."

    A tip on using space characters on computers: If you separate words by a slash, that may be ok. But if you separate terms by it, it only makes sense, if you put spaces around the slashes.

    In your comment, this results in interpreting it to be those four sentences:

    Any guesses how long it will take before the appeal starts are made?
    Any guesses how long it will take before the appeal starts are etc?
    Any guesses how long it will take before the appeal decisions are made?
    Any guesses how long it will take before the appeal decisions are etc?

    You're welcome.

    His family isn't sure what to do with the body because recycle night isn't for another 10 days.

    They are considering melting him down into children's toys so they can play with him for a change.
